Twinkle, twinkle, little star, who said monsters can't reach far?
Camp aesthetic, impossible beauty standards and body horror. Add up these ingredients and you'll get what Aflojack possibly considers the best movie of 2024. Made by women about women, The Substance (Coralie Fargeat) sends a clear message on how the external gaze can shape our relationship to our own body.
Get ready to see chicken wings, eggs and boobs in inappropriate places. And don't worry if you're faint-hearted, what will freak you out the most is already happening in the world.
