Four months after clinching the Best Screenplay award at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where it was met with a 13-minute standing ovation, Coralie Fargeat's body horror satire, The Substance, made its way to US theaters. Since then, the film has garnered numerous accolades and nominations, including five nods at the Oscars. Featuring the now Oscar-nominated performances by Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley, IGN's review gave it an 8/10, describing it as a "sick, twisted, and squirm-inducing parable" that critiques celebrity culture's fixation on youth and beauty.
