Megan Fox is "fascinated" by the occult.

The 'Jennifer's Body' actress - who plays a high school student who is sacrificed by a cult in the new horror movie - is intrigued by the rituals associated with the dark arts, but insists she has never practiced them.

She said: "I find it as fascinating as religion. Getting into it is like taking a religion course in college. But I would not say that the occult has guided or influenced me in any sense of the word. I was raised Catholic. I went to Catholic school for 12 years."

Megan, 23, loved every aspect of shooting the film, and was even happy to don the tacky, figure-hugging costumes she wears throughout.

She added to Parade.com: "There was something so cheese-tastic about my dresses, so gross and so cheap. It was so how I used to dress when I was in high school because I had no money. It made me feel like that small-town character."
