Megan Fox had to overcome her phobia of screaming on camera for 'Jennifer's Body'.

The 23-year-old actress eventually learned to "let go" while on camera and let out a shriek, and found the results quite therapeutic.

She said: "I was phobic about screaming on camera, but I had to learn to let go.

"I don't know where the noises came from, but when I released them it was like when you break down and cry after months of bottling it up."

The star admits she really enjoyed shooting the horror comedy film as it was a departure from the parts she usually plays

She added: "I hate doing school scenes and office scenes; I hate doing mall scenes... if I could do exciting genre films like this and be covered in blood and vomit for the rest of my life, I would be really happy.

"The scenes in which I was covered in blood and break through glass were amazing. In one scene, I'm shoving a whole chicken in my mouth - a whole chicken! I love it, it's so different and original."
