movie The Substance | Demi Moore & Margaret Qualley Body Horror | Sept 20

[anastaciabby]

i saw this today and it became one of my favorite movies ever 

they did alot of references to other horror movies and the way they were able to make it all flow into the story was insanely good

 

I hope anyone that didn't like it does rewatch it as it has a lot of stuff going on that you may not catch in the background and the way it did so many themes too: addiction in general, the industry, beauty, self hate, obsession, men (I love that they had a male friend that found her beautiful and how she immediately discarded his opinion because of the self hate), women, etc. It was too good

I just ADORE this film, one of the best body horror movies ever made. It's gonna be a huge cult classic for years to come.

[RT Air]

I'm still thinking about the movie two days later, and certainly not only because of the striking (to say the least) visual content, but also because it raises so many interesting questions and topics way beyond ageism and beauty standards, such as generational differences and responsibilities…

 

I also loved how – although briefly – men weren't excluded from the subject matter either, I didn't even think about it at first, but the male nurse was a nice touch that basically acknowledged that men can also fall victim to the same thing.

 

Seriously considering seeing it for a 2nd time

This was fun the crowd responses 

[HEIDI]

this movie was amazing. probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. 

[NoAngelus]

I seriously hope industry stands behind Demi and supports her with a nom, she deserves it.

 

And I hope this brings even more work to Margaret, I've been keeping an eye on her ever since The Nice Guys. Great to see both young ladies from The Nice Guys having big movies this year.

 

P.S. Watch The Nice Guys if you haven't.

I'm literally leaving the theater right now and had to come comment on how ****ing insane that was

 

AMAZING!

Saw this last night and OH MY GOD. Actually insane. Truly a thrill to watch. 

[Mellark]

This movie was a wild ride. I enjoyed it.

A Box-Office word-of-mouth indie hit. 

 

Now, we'll just need the Oscars to come through for Demi.

they're already married. Lana even had a song about their then-upcoming nuptials in her album

This is why it infuriates me that it's already being released digitally this month. It has only just started gaining momentum, has excellent word-of-mouth promo, but for some reason studios are no longer willing to allow a movie to grow gradually, they just push it to VOD if it doesn't make a profit in two weeks.

Thanks a lot. Cant wait to experience it. Too bad the movie theatres in my country only play mainstream popcorn films like deadpool or commercial movies. During  those days i miss France a lot.

This movie lives rent free in my head ever since i watched it, completely unprepared for the wild ride.

The third act is actually the culmination of the craziness that's been slowing building up throughout the film, a combination of drama, comedy and horror at once with strong symbolism in the NY Eve taping and the closing scene.

 

It's better to have a film go too far instead of not going anywhere at all.
