As Jennifer’s Body plots a resurrection, Amanda Seyfried still has nothing but praise for the original.

With the growing possibility of a sequel to the 2009 film, the Oscar nominee slammed the marketing team after they “cheapened” and “ruined” the Diablo Cody-written, Karyn Kusama-directed comedy horror that co-starred Megan Fox.

“I can’t critique this movie. To me, it’s perfect,” she told GQ. “It’s got balls. Diablo Cody was outspoken and beautiful and smart and funny. We were expressing a certain angst in a very specific, comedic way in a very specific genre. The special effects were so incredible, there were stunts, there was everything you could want.”

Seyfried added, “If the critics criticize anything, it would be the marketing. The marketing sucked, it just did. And we all agree.”

Although the marketing team largely capitalized on Fox’s sex appeal in attempt to target a younger male demographic, Jennifer’s Body has since become a feminist cult classic for its intended audience.

“The marketing team cheapened it like it was just a gory romp. I think they ruined it, and I think Karyn and Diablo were a really good team,” said Seyfried. “I love Needy. It was the first time I got to play really nerdy, wearing the glasses. Megan got to turn into a demon, it was awesome. We all just had a lot of fun, so I wanna celebrate it by doing a sequel.”

After teasing a potential sequel earlier this month, Seyfried has hopes that Fox’s Jennifer can be resurrected after their bloody finale. “She’s kind of dead, right? But is she? I don’t think she is,” she said.

Cody previously recalled being “pretty humiliated” by the original’s critical and box office failure, telling Bloody Disgusting that the film’s growing cult fandom has given her renewed inspiration.

“I want to do a sequel. I am not done with Jennifer’s Body,” said Cody. “I just need to find…I need to partner with people who believe it in [sic] as much as I do and that hasn’t really happened yet. I need someone to believe in it who has a billion dollars.”
