Listen "The Substance (2024) - ”Beauty Horror”"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we dive into the grotesque and hilarious world of The Substance, Coralie Fargeat’s latest body horror spectacle. Starring Demi Moore as an aging fitness star desperate to preserve her youth and Margaret Qualley as her younger, twisted counterpart, the film blends absurd comedy with nightmarish transformations. We’ll break down the biting critique of Hollywood’s obsession with beauty standards, the jaw-dropping practical effects, and the bold performances that drive this campy horror. How does Fargeat’s commentary on vanity and ageism hold up in today’s world? And just how revolting can this film get? Join us as we unpack the madness of The Substance and decide if it’s a new body horror classic.
