Movies Like "Get Out": "Jennifer's Body"

This iconic horror film stars Megan Fox as the titular character and Amanda Seyfried as her nerdy friend, Needy, who vows to stop Jennifer when she lures boys in their high school to their deaths. Although "Jennifer's Body" was widely misunderstood and panned when it debuted in 2009, it's become a recent feminist cult classic that toes the line between comedy and horror. With two women at the helm as writer (Diablo Cody) and director (Karyn Kusama), there's more sympathy and complexity behind Jennifer's villainy that reckons with women's sexuality and sexual assault. Like "Get Out," "Jennifer's Body" deals with the horrors of society, specifically in way that really strikes a chord after the #MeToo movement.
