John Humphrey and Tara Erickson dissect "The Substance," the shocking and body-horror infused 2024 film directed by Coralie Fargeat. Starring Demi Moore (Ghost, A Few Good Men) as Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading fitness icon, and Margaret Qualley (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Maid) in a dual role as the younger, idealized version of herself, the film plunges into the terrifying consequences of a radical new beauty treatment. We explore the film's brutal commentary on societal pressures and the extreme lengths people go to chase youth and perfection. From the unsettling transformation sequences to the intense psychological unraveling, this reaction delves into the film's most disturbing and thought-provoking moments. The cast also features Dennis Quaid (The Right Stuff, The Parent Trap) in a pivotal role. With its blend of visceral horror, biting satire, and stunning performances, "The Substance" delivers a truly unforgettable and unsettling cinematic experience.

Thank you to Hewell and Prize Picks for sponsoring this video. More on them in just a bit.
Okay, we love you guys. Let's just get into it, huh? Let's do it.
Co-edited it.
That's awesome that she wrote it and directed it,
which is probably why it's like exactly how she wanted it to be.
This is an Auteur piece.
Yeah, great special effects.
They should be awarded something for all of everything because wow, oh, wow.
Yeah, but they must be nominated.
I can't imagine with as many noms as this movie has.
It have to be, right?
That's insane.
We just got done.
If you listen to Apple or Spotify, I just got done watching.
the substance oh boy just give us five-star writing leave a comment leave it like you know do all the
things um so how do you feel now like how do you feel right now after watching that john i have watched
a couple of especially bonkers movies today for totally different reasons yep and each of
them involved a lot of fluids and functions and things and uh wow oh they got a whole thingy
for the doubles here and a special voice for the substance itself that's funny oh wow uh yeah this
was oh wow there's so many sorry they're like dancer i'm glad they're given so much credit to all
these performers i feel like they had a deceptive amount of performers in this movie this was yeah
I certainly feel being transported through these experiences today.
This experience just now has been kind of fascinating.
And yes, I feel like I need a breath.
I know.
I've done a lot of laughing and, you know, recoiling and, you know, cringe screaming and everything in between.
Yeah.
This was very striking.
And I absolutely see how and why it has been so, you know, prominent.
in the conversation since it dropped
and I mean certainly this is the kind of movie
that would very much appeal
to a viewer like me
you know I love a good
descent into madness
body horror
side like
I can't remember what I used to call it
there's like a subtle kind of sci-fi
that's like
it's just has this
one sci-fi conceit
and the rest of it is like pretty grounded
beside that it has its own like
Or it's, you know, it's not like constant sci-fi stuff.
No, it's just like a nick above the normality.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You just sign up for this program, this dubious program of, you know, mysterious origin.
And you either follow the rules or crazy shit happens.
And yeah, this was really striking and composed.
And, you know, from top to bottom, just the style of it is certainly very permeating.
And I thought they did a nice job of directing the POV.
and creating this tone of of yeah like manic sad angry desperation uh and two i mean like very
striking performance like you know every department of this is is firing on all the cylinders
and you know for demi more first and foremost to be willing and and able to throw herself like
this is the role you got throw yourself into and to go from like the full
you know the full descent you see her you know at the beginning when she's still you know
maybe not at the height of her of her fame and her you know public adoring adulation uh but certainly
you know she's beautiful and she's doing her thing and she's you know on the morning fitness show
whatever and then by the end yeah she's just in this crazy monstrous makeup and just the shades
of her personality and and the lonely sort of vulnerable stuff she had to do because you know
there's only so much dialogue and there's a lot of time she spends on her own and I really felt for her and it's it's interesting because again like it feels a lot more wide scoping than it is necessarily like there's only a handful of locations only a handful of like really prominent characters and yet you really feel this constant debate slash battle this this like absent battle that they're both fighting with each other.
and yeah like the way all the substance stuff is worded is very loaded about like you know appreciating the
experience and you know you are one you know this this constant urging to like make sure that there's
some level of harmony yeah it's almost like you guys got to like leave a like leave a notepad or a
computer where you specifically like communicate to each other right something because so much of
this yeah is about just running from yourself running from time and age and circumstance and
and there's so much about it that is born of like the unfair and sad fickle nature of
society and entertainment and and you know beauty and fashion and all that stuff and uh and yeah
you know it's it's it's it's fascinating because i expected this to be a roller coaster i expected
this to be kind of wild and gooey and gross and icky but it is like kind of heartbreaking too
constantly and the way they and the last thing i'll say before i pass the line i really thought it was
interesting how they i thought this was going to do
something where we're like really in both
their perspectives and you are
in Sue's perspective to a degree
but I feel like you are most in her shoes
and identifying with her
when shit's going real bad
and it's like for the first chunk of the
movie you feel like the person you
got to know is Demi Moore
and Sue feels like
this outside
you know anti increasingly antagonistic
sort of foreboding presence
and then you have this sad
deer thing at the end
you know that's like an amalgam of the two of them but even deeper down the rabbit hole like it's
interesting it's interesting what yeah it's like it's kind of like how much okay so from my
perspective you know this is it's in l. it's like for for most women it's like it's true you turn
30s 40s it's like you still work but like really you're just like when you get out of 20s
it's like you're almost like a dinosaur in the business it's not totally true but it's a little
bit true. You're the fun neighbor. Yeah, it's, it's wakadoo. It's wild out here. Um, but I think that this
story is so intriguing because it's like how much youth would you be willing to give up to reverse
time to take back time? Meaning she has to give up more of her youth, even if she's 50. She has to go
back and be like, here's more of me. I'm going to turn 60 and 70 in order to reverse time. Like there's
that the juxtaposition of that is Wackadoo Wild because everyone who's using the substance
knows that if they, which I'm sure they all tested it, that if they go a day over,
the other, the counterpart just keeps getting more and more destroyed.
You're taking more youth from that.
You're killing yourself.
Yeah.
Basically to have this life.
And I do think that there are a lot of people who get so close to the,
like killing yourself over being perfect and beautiful and getting back to your past and getting
to how you looked when you were in this magazine when you were 25. It's really hard. Like when you're
fighting age, everybody has to do that. And I think that the reminder in this is like you are one.
It doesn't like, it's age is going to catch up with everyone. And you can remember your younger
herself, which is like when she becomes the monster, she's like, it's still me, which it is like
you're going to, when you get older an age and it's like, you're viewing yourself as like,
oh my God, especially when she's like dealing with the lipstick and nothing seems good enough
because she remembers that the young like supple self and she just can't get over it.
It's such a wild ride and it goes to the most extreme point where she turns into a monster
because she sacrificed so much just to keep that youthful side
because she doesn't feel good enough.
She doesn't feel wanted.
And that's what this business, like, does.
In a big way, I really appreciate this movie for highlighting it.
I know they're doing it in an extreme horror way.
And I thought that it was brilliant.
But a lot of the story underneath this,
this stuff exists with people just in general.
so I in her being like the monster at the end there's just like there's a lot of people that when you're you're aging and you get to a certain point you just kind of feel hopeless but in her saying it's still me it is still it's still you you just have to hopefully not hopefully not sell your soul and get on a substance I thought that I just thought the message of like you're you're giving away part of your youth to
reverse time to become youthful again right there's there's that's what this is kind of and following that
story i thought was really really beautiful because they grounded it really well where i agree with you
and the point of view of dem you more we sort of we feel from her right from the top right get this
woman out of here she's 50 she's been working and you feel her legacy when we walk through the hallway
it's filled with her all of her hard work this is her she this is she's built this place right
she probably pays for everyone in that, it has a job because of her.
And then all of a sudden she becomes very inconsequential.
And when you become inconsequential in your life, like you don't, yeah, sure, I'll take substance
and like just anything else, right?
And then I like when we see her younger that we haven't filled the hallway yet because
we just haven't earned it.
And that that's another, I think, with the point of view.
you were there with her.
The younger self,
she just didn't earn our heart
because we knew like our heart kind of lied
within Demi.
And then at the end,
that's why it breaks with her
of like when it's like,
it's still me.
That's so sad.
When she's like,
it's still me.
Yeah.
Sad.
Yeah.
When I'm like,
yeah,
that self hate and the way that,
you know,
there's that element of chasing youth
and like the things like,
you know,
here and now in,
reality you can do a lot you can employ a lot of substances to attempt yeah to freeze yourself
in time or to make yourself look younger and you can't like sometimes it works if you do it right
and if you balance it out you know there's good work out there but sometimes you turn yourself
into uh some sometimes it doesn't work out and and and you're wearing that everywhere and you know
and you know everybody has a different story everybody has a different feel on that but yeah i can see
how, you know, that ultimate admission of like, I need you because I hate myself and there's like
a lot wrapped up in that because it's like the her of the here and now, the current day,
the Matrix Elizabeth, you know, hates her current, you know, form, but also you wonder if,
you know, it's always, if there's always been a self-hater. Like sometimes you drive yourself,
like to reach the heights that she had, you know, up until the point.
She was, you know, foisted from the pedestal.
You know, you have to wonder a lot of times, not all the time,
but sometimes that can come from never feeling good enough,
and especially in a spotlight, you know, you, yeah,
you might have the beauty and the bod and all the kind of zap and verve
and the, you know, electricity that makes people light up.
But you can still hate yourself in and around that.
And it's, yeah, this sort of grappling with, like, the image that I built.
And there are multiple layers, like you got to, I think, as an actor,
have to want to confront or at least sit with and hold some difficult truths and stuff.
And, you know, I feel like some people would be game for this.
Some people would back away from this because, you know, you have to acknowledge that,
like, you have to be a person of a different stature and you have to have the age, you know,
to be the core of this movie and to confront the fact that, too, especially as a celebrity,
as an actor, you're creating a persona that is given to the world, the world forms
its own association with and you know that means different things both in like a public scenario how like
the normal interaction she has people are like Elizabeth Sparkle yeah you know people are bringing you
their stuff and sometimes you're in a place to hear that someplace sometimes you're not then behind
the closed doors where the decisions get made you know you can really feel yeah how how much of a cog you
are to these dudes who are just parading around sort of like having a good time and lunching it up and
And, you know, the movie doesn't do a neon sign about it, but it is like all these guys are like...
They're living off her.
Like, Dennis Quaid's, like, you know, certainly is 50s or maybe 60s now.
And, you know, like, it also highlights that side of things.
It's like, you know, these guys who are sort of able to kind of play around and, you know, have their whims met at any fancy, you know, forever while she's stuck in this torture that is partly based on how society and, and again,
the gaze works, but also is a very internal personal thing, too.
And I like that, yeah, it's like you have, without it being, because they can't really
communicate that much, you just get the sense of how they feel about each other when
each other isn't around.
And so it's like there are certain, there are different parts of you and you can feel a certain
way about parts of yourself.
And then you can create circumstances for yourself and then like actually be upset at
like the you that did that.
And like there are sort of ways in which you can compartmental, you can compartmental.
You can analyze your own mind in life.
And this kind of transcribed, or at least to me, transcribed elements of that.
And, yeah, like, it works on multiple levels because it's that universality of, like, we all want to hang on to youth.
And even if it's not about that, having the better version of ourselves, the perfect version of ourselves, a more perfect version or however they described it.
Right.
Reject Nation put on some weight over the holidays.
So in the past month, I've been on a pretty strict macro counting diet.
And I gotta say, I'm feeling better than ever.
At the same time, you gotta be real about something.
Sticking to macros means early having to, like, factor out a lot when you're trying to pick meals.
And when life gets busy, that's when there's a chance to get all fall apart.
That's why when I don't have something to cook, but I still need something that fits within my diet.
I go for this bad boy, and I know you've seen me drinking on camera before.
He'll!
So happy, just got a fresh order.
I have definitely probably ordered more personally for this household than they've ever paid me.
I don't know if that's true, but it's, I feel confident in that fear.
And Hew's black condition ready to drink is a complete meal and a bottle.
Packed with 35 grams of protein, 27 essential vitamins and minerals.
You're not just filling up, you're fueling up.
And here's why I love it.
A, it's tasty.
I've tried a lot of plant-based ones, especially.
And this one's actually great.
All my vegan friends and I, we get together, and we talk about how great Hew is.
It's efficient.
Obviously, there's no cooking.
There's no prep.
Just grab it, drink it, and you can go.
Low sugar.
High protein.
great macros whether you're tracking your intake or just want a balanced meal this one generally checks every box my guy i haven't even read that one yet slow release carbs
just keeps getting better it's a benefit again when he's ready to go drinks right takes all the guesswork out of having to eat well and best part is the thing's affordable too each bottle is a meal that costs less than five bucks making it a no-brainer if you're looking for a quick nutritious option so if you want to give it a try

Rejignation, fun fact.
Fantasy football is now a part of my life.
Why?
Because my wife and her friends are obsessed with it.
So I'm constantly hearing about things I've never heard about before.
Like who's getting benched?
Who's a sleeper pick?
And why someone's entire weekend was ruined over a bad play.
And at this point, I figured might as well support my wife the extra mile and getting in there myself.
And that's why I want to think prize picks.

prize picks, people. Run your game. And it's funny because I believe Dennis Quaid, I saw an article
about him just a few months ago. I think he married a 26 year old. So he's really playing the
part here. But I also think that in reality, it's like men can, you can age sort of in this
business very specifically. And it doesn't, it's not, it's not going to really affect
your business or you playing the parts.
doing the jobs as much as it will women in general but i think like also this made me think of
plastic surgery when it's like gone too far right it's like a good example of like when people
get addicted to it we've seen the stories where like they do turn themselves they're like i want
to look like this person and then they they're like the doctors are just like okay this is a bad
idea but i'll keep going because that's what you want is a laissez-faire baby exactly give me the
money um and i just feel like this movie does a really good job of just highlighting a lot of shite
that goes down in los angeles and i'm not in in not even just l.A but and i but i know l.A. is
mainly pictured here but in in cities where vanity and how you were like this is the only thing that
people like about me she says that and she's trying to um what was i was going to say regurgitate nope
she's giving CPR
after she tries
I was saying regurgitating
there was a lot of regurgitation in the movie
to be fair
good Lord that that part
had me but anyway she's when she's
crying out saying this is the only thing that people
like about me I need you
and that is such a statement
that is what
it's so hard because if you
really think about Hollywood and L.A
and you even think about magazines
it's like who wore it best who has
the best makeup what's the dress look at them on the red carpet who looks the most beautiful oh my god
who who did like her it's all vanity right that that's what this town is and really what it's
based upon yes it's change you don't have to be exactly perfect or look like them to get a job
but it still surrounds everybody in in this business and i think that this film did a good job of
just like yeah that's how it is but of course taking it to the extreme which is why when it gets
to the end you can sort of laugh at it like this is this is crazy we get what they're trying to do
but um it's still underlying there's a lot of truth to it and i liked i just liked where they
took it but i will tell you i wanted to throw up multiple times this was really hard to watch
which is great um the amount of of special effects prosthetics and makeup i just
just want to just take all of my money you get all the awards um for real and the thing that
really got me and that i love is a good callback or when we can start and we end right where
we began which is at that star um i really like that and i like that you know her last sort of
viewing before she just turned into just blood and so
into her star what were those palm trees and like the stars and like it was such a i don't know
it's such like a weird la hollywood moment and we had a lot of those in this right we would we would
have the palm trees at night and they're swang and it's ominous then we'd have them in the day
and it looks pretty and then we're running and panicking the palm trees are just like you know what i
mean there's there's they did a good job of incorporating a lot of small things that the filmmaker
and the producers are obviously very aware of
that subconsciously
are gonna clock in your brain
and that's what makes good filmmaking.
Yeah, the sunsides and the shadow sides and stuff
and too, like the way she says that thing
on the interview show,
which is one of the few times they get to
sort of, besides when they actually
face to face with each other,
like they sort of get to interact.
Yeah.
Because it's the kind of movie too
where like you can see any number of stories
you could tell in this,
premise. Yeah. But it feels like the right. You're probably trying to do trivia. Keep talking. Yeah, I was trying. You know, there's multiple
stories. You could do a ton of stuff with this. And this feels like a very apropos thing to have chosen. It's like sometimes you see a movie or a premise or even like a sequel to something. You're like, that's a version, but it's not like the version. And this feels like the version of this. And there's that moment where she's on TV. And they're like, what's your question we always ask you, best beauty secret? Yeah. And that whole thing about like, I just trying to be, you know, genuine and be myself and like and love myself.
You know, that very, that answer that you, it's like the answer that should be true,
but you know that like half the people out there.
It's like the same way like people are like, what's your number one fitness tip for like these
dudes who are like clearly juicing, as you would say.
Yeah.
And they're like, oh, you know, just eat 100 chickens a day and just like really dedicate yourself
to the gym.
And you're like, there's more to it than that.
Right.
And, and yeah, like it's, yeah, it's interesting.
and for Sue to feel like this outside person.
It is interesting to watch the whole theme
and the flashes they'll throw up of like,
you are one and this sort of tragedy of the fact
that like, yeah, it is in a very basic reading
just sort of like the, yeah, you need to incorporate
your shadow side, the things that you're self-conscious
about are afraid of about yourself
or that you don't like, you need to, yeah, fuse them.
And you're like, this whole time you're like,
man, you both could have a good life.
If you just left each other some sticky notes
and encouraged each other a little bit.
And then yeah, too, just the transformation in a, this is a more broad macro idea,
but how she goes, you know, we watch this beautiful person turn into like a literal, like,
witch lady with like the big gray hair and like the, you know, that like half the face is all
like messed up.
And she's got like the, like the hag finger at one point.
And like, you know, she's in the kitchen, like concocting shit.
Yeah.
You know, and it's like it's interesting because that's that plays into, you know,
the further back annals of the way our weird relationship with, yeah, age and just women in all of
culture forever and, you know, and youth and virality and stuff like that.
Like it's, yeah, there's a lot of fun loaded imagery and you wonder, it's like you don't have to.
Like, I don't ever need a prequel to this where they're like, where did the substance come from?
What is it made of?
Who made it?
Oh, God.
But there are just like a fascinating number of like, who is this doctor?
this nurse guy like what is his what's his story and and has anybody out there gotten a hold of
this shit and managed to have it to have it work to appreciate it you know because they're both
not listening over the phone and they're both demanding what they want and there's a certain
amount of flow and acceptance that you have to incorporate if you're going to make anything work
substance or no right yeah i agree with you okay so listen there's a great actor that was actually
cast in this film but died
and Dennis Quaid took his
place. Who do you think that is?
Oh my. Yeah, he died
in 2022.
Was it like a sudden
unexpected kind of thing?
I think maybe a little bit.
He's older, same age. It's going to be a hard
one. I wouldn't guess it.
Who died? William Hurt?
No. You wanted to have one more guess?
Sure. How about
Tony Todd? He didn't die in 2022.
No. It starts with an R.
raw raw this is fun like all the r names are alive ra ra ra ra raeiotta wouldn't have been good i could totally see that 100% wow i could 100% see dennis quade like was clearly having a good time i would be fascinated to know how he got aboard this project yeah just knowing the not even in a horrible way just like knowing who dennis quade is out in life i'm curious is how he wound up here but i could totally see really owed it 100% also
So the director still thanks him in the notes during the credits for Ray Liotto, which I think is very lovely.
You were right that her breasts in the movie are not her own.
Their prosthetics, design by the French makeup artist, Pierre Aliverr, per sudden.
Well done, Pierre.
Yes.
Who designed the boob ball?
Right?
Like, tell us all about it.
Or don't, because I can't.
So it says in the film, Elizabeth Sparkle turned 50, how old.
do you think Demi Moore was filming this
when she was filming this?
Hmm.
Ooh.
Oh,
I don't know.
I feel like I'm in a trap now.
Oh, yeah.
No, I said it earlier.
She was 60.
I was going to say,
I feel like she was 60.
She's 60.
And I'm still stunned at how great she likes.
That's cool.
That A, that's cool because A,
that means you're doing well for yourself.
But also, like, you know, I
passed a certain age.
I imagine dudes are cast 10 years.
younger all the time and I never would have guessed so yeah that's nice I never would have guessed either so she was Demi Moore was nervous about filming nudity at her age and she felt very vulnerable but Margaret Quali who was 29 at the time of filming portrayed a younger version of her character right made her feel very comfortable on set I'm not I don't know if I'm saying but Margaret also performed totally naked coincidentally Quali's uh they keeps quoting quality quality's mother Andy McDowell Andy McDowell's her
Oh, co-starred 40 years earlier with Demi Moore and St. Almost Fire.
Oh, wow.
It was just a career-making film for both of them.
That's insane.
Wow, that's like kind of kismet.
I'm going to have to see St. Elmo's Fire.
Oh, my God, me neither.
That's great.
I love that.
So in several interviews, Demi Moore said that reading the script for this movie,
you might have heard the script of Ghost,
because the chance that it could be amazing or disaster was the same.
100% that was crucial she got good judgment except the role she knows when to take the
I'm sure I'm sure she's at a dud or something here there but those are two you know yeah well done
good choice oh listen to this this is okay Demi Moore was not the director's first pick
what during a meeting in Paris more gave Fargo a copy of her 2019 memoir which then convinced
Fargo to cast her due to its depiction
of her relationship to her body
during the early and peak years
of her film career.
I would be fascinated
to take a look at that. Wild.
Wild. That would be, yeah.
Oh my. Right?
I'm going to have to take a look at that.
Interesting. I mean, yeah, you have to have
that. Like, that makes sense.
Like, you bring that in. You've got to be
yeah, willing to be vulnerable and to
have that conversation with yourself
as part of the art. So like,
damn. That's cool.
though too that she like threw the shot and was like hey I got like she really wanted this
yeah like here you go let's do this um so how many times do you think how many takes do you think
she did for that mirror sequence that had to be a oneer that had to be one take a hundred takes
15 takes for each scene and at the end of the day her face was raw oh where she's like doing the
makeups and stuff that scene oh boy she was going at it too she was going at it
15 and you saw her rip her freaking i like that's wild to me that's wild to me um oh my god how
how many pounds of shrimp did dennis quaid eat in that scene oh my god this will be i'll read
one more after this one how many pounds five pounds oh that's still a the lotish that's
Oh, what is ruined.
That scene too.
Oh, my God.
What a metaphor of that.
Okay, this is the last one.
I think it's really fun.
Director Fargo, I don't know if I'm saying your name right.
Just come at me.
Farja is what I hear people say the most.
Director Farha personally operated the camera for the point of view shots.
Cool.
Sometimes playing the character's body in the scene by wearing the appropriate costume.
That is how a director comes through.
because you know what?
Otherwise, you've got to put,
I've had to do a thing
where you have to do POV
and that means I would have to wear a helmet
they connect a camera to it.
It's really hard on your shoulders
and your back.
And then they tell me to move
and do things, right?
This is what I'm talking about.
The director comes through.
I love you.
That was very cool.
I love you.
I loved all of this.
I thought it was fantastic.
I'm glad it's been nominated
for a bunch of things.
I know Demi won,
I think a Golden Globe for this.
She's been nominated for an Oscar.
I'm sure it's nominated for a bunch of other Oscar things.
It's going to be the best picture.
I have just, I've loved it.
And I think it's an amazing, like, brava for cinema.
Bravo for cinema.
Yeah.
Yeah, we've got to call that number.
Get our lives change.
I know, right?
Go get our locker, man.
The substance.
I'm like, do they only have enough spots for that many lockers?
I know.
How far reaching is this operation?
There's only, like, nine lockers there.
No, is it in multiple cities?
What if you don't live near the substance?
I got to go.
I'm going to get there first.
Yeah.
I've got to move my entire life.
I got to move quick.
I got to move quick.
