#88 – The Substance (2024) Review The Complete Guide to Horror Movies

Join BP, Coop, Pablo and Justin as we review The Substance, the 2024 satirical body horror film written, directed, co-edited, and co-produced by Coralie Fargeat. It follows a fading celebrity (Demi Moore) who uses a black market drug that creates a much younger version of herself (Margaret Qualley) with unexpected side effects.

An international co-production between France, the United Kingdom, and the United States, the film had its world premiere on 19 May 2024 at the 77th Cannes Film Festival main competition, where Fargeat won Best Screenplay.

It was released theatrically in the United Kingdom and the United States by Mubi on 20 September, and is scheduled for release in France by Metropolitan Filmexport on 6 November. The film received positive reviews and grossed over $42 million on a $17.5 million production budget.
