Jennifers Body (2009)

Needy and Jennifer are best friends. Needy is a shy dorky girl with a steady boyfriend and Jennifer is the hot bitchy cheerleader that sleeps with any guy she wants. When the two go to a local club to see the band Low Shoulder, a fire erupts during the bands first song and most of the concert goers die.

Jennifer and Needy escape and the band asks Jennifer to go somewhere with them in their van. Needy begs her not to go, but Jennifer is interested in the lead singer. Bad move since the band is looking for a virgin sacrifice which will please the dark powers and enable them to become rock stars.

The only problem is Jennifer lied about being a virgin and ends up becoming a succubus that must consume living flesh, which she gets by killing the boys who want to sleep with her. Needy is the only one who notices a change in Jennifer and sets out to try to stop her.

Billed as a horror comedy, it falls short on the comedy. Overall, it was okay, but not great. Although I did get a laugh out of the band breaking into Tommy Tutone's 867-5309 (Jenny).
