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. Join us as we react to the body horror that has everyone talking. #TheSubstance #DemiMoore #MargaretQualley #CoralieFargeat #BodyHorror #HorrorMovie #FilmReview #MovieReaction #React #Reacting #2024Movies #DennisQuaid #Thriller #Satire #Fargoat Late Night With The Devil: https://youtu.be/Nw2aiyV0HX4 The Substance Reaction: https://youtu.be/CBAkleBZcmA Nosferatu Reaction: https://youtu.be/00B52OXFf-M Terrifier 3 Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/KUWRhu-oLLc Smile 2 Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/LrBVVPc_Qr4 Longlegs Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/cDdayu4z9gg Follow *Tara Erickson* on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TaraErickson Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taraerickson/ twitter: https://twitter.com/thetaraerickson 0:00 Checking in! 4:21 The Substance Reaction 35:49 HUEL! 37:31 The Substance Movie Reaction 1:23:32 PRIZE PICKS! 1:24:58 The Substance Review 1:53:39 Patron of the Day SHOUT OUT!

the fact that there are 2 reactions for this masterpiece... deserved!

My immediate thought the second the movie was over is "I need to be kinder to myself." It's one lesson Elizabeth and Sue could have used.

It seems like you guys didn't realize that the old man IS the nurse from the beginning. The only reason he has the birthmark is to show that it's him, just like Sue shares Elizabeth's birthmark.

8:35 "Take care of yourself." Both Elizabeth's and Sue's shows end with a message they clearly haven't internalized despite reading it off cue cards every episode.

"to do the substance, you gotta have a murder bathroom ready." is an all-time Tara quote.

Margaret Qualley should’ve gotten an Oscar nomination

The theater experience of this movie exceeded the energy had with Endgame. We were losing our minds and eating it up. I think twenty of us stayed during the credits just to talk to each other about the movie.

I despise how our world (in most countries and communities) disrespect, shame, and disregard people for aging, when it's the biggest gift you can get to be able to keep living... and the most natural thing. I truly dislike how people are written off purely because of looks. We live in a shallow world, I ADORE how this film comments on the toxicity, hypocrisy, contradictory messages, also the imagery we get bombarded with to purposely try to make us feel sh*tty about ourselves. This film makes you care for Elizabeth, empathising with her. Especially the getting ready for the date scene. 🥺 I hope Demi gets all the awards. 🩷 LOVED every bit of Tara and John's reaction. 🤘
