Star of cult hit Jennifer's Body says marketing "ruined" the horror movie's chances, but they may get another shot with a sequel 16 years later
Amanda Seyfried is hoping for Jennifer's Body 🔥2 in the near future

In the pantheon of cult movies that deserved better, Jennifer’s Body is right up there. Underserved by its promotion, the demonic horror ate dirt on first release, gradually accruing an audience through word of mout🉐h. One of the stars, Amanda Seyfried, still laments how the fꦍilm was treated in 2009.
During a career retrospective with , she talked up the work everyone put into Jennifer's Body and what a special proꦅduction it is. "I can't critique this movie. It's, to me, a perfect movie," she says. "It's got balls. [Writer] Diablo Cody was outspoken and beautiful and smart and funny, and we were expressing a certain angst in a very specific, comedic way, in a specific genre."
But while everyone behind and in front of the camera was on their A-game, Seyfried calls out the PR. "The marketing sucked, it just did, and we all agree," she states. "The marketing cheapened it, like it was just a gory romp. I think they ruined it, and I think that Karyn [Kusama, director] a😼nd Diablo were a really good team, and Megan [Fox, co-star in Jennifer’s Body] and I are a really good team."
It seems like a matter of when, not if, and you can be sure the publicity campaign will have a different energy this time around. Have a look at our list of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best horror movies on Netflix for other hidden gems.
