ComingSoon.net reports, 20th Century Fox has set a September 18, 2009 release date for Jennifer’s Body, starring Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons, Adam Brody and J.K. Simmons. The horror comedy was written by Diablo Cody (Juno) and directed by Karyn Kusama.

In the film, a gorgeous cheerleader (Fox) is possessed by a demon and starts feeding off the boys in a small Minnesota farming town. Her “plain Jane” best friend must kill her, then escape from a correctional facility to go after the Satan-worshipping rock band responsible for the horrible transformation.

Mamma Mia! has been nominated for the 2009 Golden Globes. The awards will take place Sunday, January 11, 2009, at The Beverly Hilton with a live telecast airing on NBC at 8 PM (EST).

The Vomit shot out of Megan Fox like water from a geyser. A ghastly movie concoction that looked like a mix of used motor oil, lawn clippings and the slag at the bottom of a Souplantation trash bin, the black puke sprayed actors Amanda Seyfried and Johnny Simmons, whose characters were doing their best to fight off a cannibalistic fiend, an otherwise popular cheerleader named Jennifer Check.

It was among the more gothic scenes in Jennifer’s Body, a closing battle with fewer rules than Ultimate Fighting, pitting Jennifer (Transformer’s Fox) against her longtime friend Needy Lesnicky (Seyfried, of Mamma Mia!) and her relatively wimpy boyfriend Chip Dove (Evan Almighty’s Simmons). The movie’s swimming pool location, inside a derelict juvenile hall slated to become a hospital for British Columbia’s criminally insane, was forbidding in its own right. The flotsam in the pool’s filthy water — leaves, a wheelchair, beer cans — made the entire setting for the film stomach-turning, especially since the young actors had to swim in it.

Amanda Seyfried will follow Mamma Mia! with a starring gig in Dear John, the Lasse Hallstrom-directed adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks bestseller.

Seyfried joins Channing Tatum in the pic and will play a young woman who meets and falls in love with a soldier while he’s on leave.

Jamie Linden wrote the script.

Relativity is fully financing the film, which begins shooting Oct. 13 in South Carolina. Screen Gems will distribute domestically.

Relativity’s Ryan Kavanaugh will produce with Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey, the Temple Hill partner who developed the film under their New Line deal and then enlisted Relativity when that distributor was absorbed by Warner Bros. Relativity’s Tucker Tooley will be executive producer.
