  • The Substance

    The Substance

    ★★★★★

    The horror/splatter genre usually focuses solely on shock and gore, but The Substance goes beyond that, delivering a gut punch of social commentary. It explores the objectification of women, the treatment they endure, and how the male gaze has shaped their self-perception.

    Utterly gripping and captivating, it keeps you on the edge of your seat at all times.

    Revenge is a double edged sword and it destroys both the hunted and the hunter. This movie was exceptional, an ode to cinema and a true depiction of how much distraction falls upon anyone who chooses the absolute hubris of taking justice into their own hands. This movie, was an instant favorite for me, and I am not sure I can really put it into words.
