Unleash Your Darkest Desires with ‘The Substance’
Have you ever dreamt of a better version of yourself?
You. Only better in every way.
Enter The Substance, a provocative new film that dares to explore this seductive possibility. A new release by CreaZion Studios, ‘The Substance’ premieres exclusively in Philippine cinemas on September 25, 2024.
Demi Moore delivers a jaw-dropping performance as Elisabeth Sparkle, a former A-lister who finds herself discarded and past her prime, unceremoniously fired from her fitness TV show by the loathsome studio head Harvey (played by Dennis Quaid). Elisabeth’s life spirals until she discovers a mysterious new drug: The Substance. With a single injection, she is temporarily transformed into the breathtaking, twenty-something Sue (portrayed by Margaret Qualley). But there’s a catch – time must be split equally: one week in one body, then one week in the other. No exceptions. This perfect balance seems like a dream, but what could possibly go wrong?
Directed by the visionary Coralie Fargeat, The Substance is a deliriously entertaining and ruthlessly body-horror that eviscerates toxic beauty culture. This Cannes sensation is a be-careful-what-you-wish-for fable for the ages, heralding the comeback of movie goddess, Demi Moore. The Substance dismantles toxic myths through the lens of satisfying genre tropes, blending elements of Death Becomes Her, The Fly, and Carrie.
Prepare for a sensory overload with bold aesthetics, impeccable sound design, and eye-popping practical effects. The film offers a scathing look at the absurdity of beauty standards, featuring the iconic Demi Moore alongside rising star Margaret Qualley and veteran actor Dennis Quaid.
The Substance is poised to redefine the horror genre with its explosive, provocative, and twisted narrative. Don’t miss this cinematic masterpiece that promises to leave you questioning the very essence of beauty and identity.
