"Jennifer's Body" (2009)
A high school cheerleader (Megan Fox) is possessed by a Succubus demon, which leads to numerous gory deaths around town. It's up to her mousy former best friend (Amanda Seyfried) to figure out how to stop the undead hottie's killing spree.
A sharp horror flick with great performances by the two leading ladies and a tongue in cheek sense of humor, ala the "Buffy" TV series. Worth checking out.

THE SLASHER NURSE (2025) I grew up in the late 70's and early 80's, the golden age of slasher films.
It's such an easy formula - get a bunch of teenagers in an isolated location, a masked killer, some drunken hijinks, a dash of nudity, a bunch of killing, a final girl, and a jump scare at the end because the killer isn't really dead.

This movie got it all wrong.  I mean, the body count was high, but the story was unconvincing and the plot was boring and full of holes; the victims were all in their late 30's and none of them were that attractive.  I couldn't even stay awake to finish it last night, I watched the last 40 minutes this morning and it was still bad.  The Nurse's rampage in the restaurant was the only remotely entertaining part of the whole film.
