Milgram was trying to show something about the human condition, and gleaned insights that were particularly useful in light of the Holocaust: normal, everyday people can easily be swayed by structures of authority....

Jennifer S Body Red Band Movie Trailer

Jennifer’s Body Red Band Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/July 5, 2009 10:37 pm EST The film tells the story of a small-town high school hottie Jennifer (Megan Fox) who is possessed by a hungry demon and begins eating boys.

The trailer looks good but if I had any complaint, it would be that the dialogue seems a bit too PG-13, compared to the R-rated sex and violence imagery....
