Demi Moore stars as a fading celebrity who injects herself with a cell-replicating substance that literally makes her give birth to a younger version of herself (Margaret Qualley).

With its shades of David Cronenberg and Stuart Gordon, The Substance catapults Fargeat (Revenge) into the realm of mad genius, and you absolutely do not want to miss this one.

The Substance also stars Dennis Quaid, who quite literally chews the scenery in one of the most revolting old-dude-savagely-eating-shellfish scenes your eyes will ever care to witness.

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review for BD, “Fargeat is having a blast lambasting Hollywood’s skittishness around aging, pointing out the absurdity of it all at every turn. It yields a new camp horror classic, bold in its approach and delightfully deranged. It’s as funny as it is revolting, existing in a heightened sense of reality that’s as hypnotic as off-putting.”
