20th Century Fox are unleashing Jennifer's Body in Germany 11/05/09. The German movie rating organization "FSK" slapped Jen's Bod with an "18" rating (restricted: no persons under the age of 18). So far so good.
They also classified the movie as "nicht feiertagsfrei" - meaning, Jennifer's Body may not be shown during silent public holidays for reasons not known yet. Silent public holidays are more or less public holidays with a varying degree of holiness depending on regional districts.

Not sure if this has anything to do with her Nazi comment a few weeks ago but Megan Fox is always causing some sort of commotion no matter what  :wink:

A small update on Germany's weird laws regarding Megan Fox's latest epic:

The German movie rating organization "FSK" who slapped Jen's Bod with an "18" rating (restricted: no persons under the age of 18) for it's limited run in German theaters rated the extended uncut DVD version with a "16" (age 16 or older). Go figure.
