yo i will say as soon as i saw him pull a gun out n the car scene i started laughing saw it years ago and still remember who i watched it with one of the best scenes
Saw it Sat and tomorrow, Tue, I'm seeing it again. I can hardly wait to see how I'll react to a second viewing. I absolutely loved this film and how it blew past the point most films would stop. I felt the visceral, absolutely raging, fearless energy to take it where it needed to go, and not stopped short. I'm really looking forward to Fargeat's next film!
Great interview. Had the pleasure of seeing The Substance in the theater. A beautiful film with barbed wire edges. This is easily the best use of horror\body to provide a handle on the issue. Also the best freaking body horror splatterfest in like forever. Easily in the best five of the year.
This film was a montage of the Shining, the Knight of Cups, Society, and Neon Demon put together. People need to stop pretending that the cinematography was original. That being said, it was still a solid film.
that doesn’t mean its not original, having references in your film is appreciated by fans and critics. It shows that the director is educated in filmography, Tarantino is famous for that and still he has created his original signature.
I definitely recommend watching this movie, because it really describes how women, not all but some of them really want to look and feel youthful and beautiful, you definitely will need to watch cute kittens and puppy videos after.
Never seen your channel before, but this was an incredible interview you’re a natural. And cool channel name. That’s all, keep up the unique interviews because you’re far more interesting than most 🫶
Everyone raving about this movie like it’s a new concept. Meanwhile, there’s also “SKINCARE,” with Elizabeth Banks, and a Hong Kong film called “DUMPLINGS,” that I would say is even a more disturbing look at obsession with beauty and youth. If anything, THE SUBSTANCE is too simplistic.
Just saw this, EASILY the BEST horror film of the decade, right up there with Hereditary. It's like if Neon Demon was made with ACTUAL substance to it, holy shit.
The Grandfather who was to leave Young Joseph the money was NOT Richard's father. It was his father-in-law. Great movie...but this video failed to mention the real story behind the film. A family had a sickly child who stood to inherit a large fortune. When the boy died, they buried him without ceremony in a field, without a marker. They then proceeded to adopt a Changeling who grew up to inherit the fortune. Then the Haunting commenced. At least, this is what I read. Although they didn't murder the boy like the father in the movie did, they swept him under the rug so to speak. His death was hidden. That would piss me off too.
This movie accosted me. It’s so long too. It was fucking brutal, conjured images from Kubrick and Lynch and was simultaneously a movie all its own. It’s so bleak and sad and I just wanted it to be over. It reminds me of the mother daughter paradigm as well. It was beautiful. It’s truly the pinnacle of horror as a women, Coralie really knows what she’s doing with the revenge and then this. Bravo! I’ll never ever watch it again, but please please please watch it if you haven’t. And then go pet some puppies and don’t look in the mirror.
I think you put it best, I LOVED IT. But I'm going to take some time before I watched it again, I'd love to own it, it's CERTAINLY horror film of the decade.
I just saw it yesterday. I found it brutally dark, brutally tragic, brutally gross and brutally.....kinda darkly funny in parts. And just insanely imaginative horror! I genuinely believe that Coralie Fargeat deserved the Best Screenplay award she received at Cannes for this. I was reminded very much of Kubrick imagery with the scenes at the TV network studio and Harvey's office.
I can't tell You enough how much I agree with this. Hahah This film is such a work of art and deserves nothing but praise!... However...haha NOT a popcorn or snack flick. I can't stress that enough. Maybe just stay hydrated. Haha One word.... Shrimp. 🦐 😱🦐 @@PotterPointFilms
@@PotterPointFilmsI watched while eating breakfast I didn't really find it disgusting but very sad and connected with it emotionally So I still loved it 😅
The trailer for ‘The Substance’ promises titillation galore for teenage boys and dirty old men, under the guise of ‘social critique’. How far is this tactic from the films produced by the American Social Hygiene Association, at the beginning of the 20th century? The males will leave this film with ‘flesh on the mind’ and the females with ‘cosmetics on the mind’. Successful actresses build their career on character, rather than contours (i.e. Angela Lansbury). Filmmakers who genuinely love women, provide opportunities for their feminine strength of character to shine. Misogynistic filmmakers expose bodily contours and then proceed to tear them apart for the viewer’s perverse delight. My favourite Demi Moore film is ‘One Crazy Summer’. I would like to see more films like ‘Howard’s End’ or ‘Trust’ where the women are given something edifying to do… While the filmmakers are patting themselves on the back, for simply reinforcing ‘the male gaze’, here are some valid criticisms: “But for all its feminist diatribes, The Substance is still a movie that is 80 percent extreme close-ups of Margaret Qualley’s arse. In nearly every other scene, the camera lovingly pans over her spandex-clad exterior, in sequences that are shot like ‘90s Viagra commercials” (Inverse.com). "The Substance’s presentation is as shallow as the very thing it’s critiquing. There’s no compassion, and certainly no catharsis - just more hagsploitation and a sense of déjà vu." (Hannah Strong) "An overuse of stale horror conventions in an already predictable plot-combined with decades-old, thoroughly unchallenging ideas about women’s relationships to their bodies-leads to a film that claims to support its protagonist, while treating her like the butt of the joke at every turn." (Paste Magazine) 'After two hours and 20 minutes of flamboyantly repulsive variations on this well-worn theme, even the strongest-stomached and most feminist of viewers could be excused for muttering, We get it already." (Slate Magazine)
@@MrBooone Agree 100%. But I'd say this movie has some Aronofsky vibes (and maybe some other director I can't recall rn), specifically with certain aspects of the editing. I mean, the sense of dread and overstimulation provoked by some sequences it reminded me of Aronofsky. Yet, I wouldn't dare to say they're comparable, perhaps there's an influence... maybe not, only Coralie Fargeat knows, until someone asks her. It's part of the creative process
I admittedly did think this while watching this but I liked this movie so much more. IMO both movies are harrowing but only Substance was also entertaining while messing with you. Requiem is one of the few movies that I watched and then told to go f itself.
Kudos for practical effects in both movies! That's a really rare thing to see in movies today. All effects are hand made, practical, no CGI and that's awesome, I love that! Also, I know it's cringey to say that, like some horror groupie, but David is very cute.
No spoilers but, here’s an equation: David Cronenberg style direction + Demi Moore reflecting on her 90s career × a theme about the abuse of performance/psychoactive drugs + a vibe like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde × the climax of Akira^Perfect Blue = ?
SORRY Folks, I just can NEVER get to your enjoyment of Alien 3. The writer DISRESPECTED the profoundly beautiful new family bond that resulted from the ending of Aliens. It was too much. I become physically affected from the anger each time that movie opens I simply can not watch the rest of this dreary movie (although I admit, for what it is, Fincher did well) Assembly Cut or not.
I saw the film Dark August recently and that had a tarot reading scene in it that seemed surprisingly accurate (to me, someone new to tarot at least) and addressed the reversal meanings as well.
The first time I saw this movie, I just thought it was a fun, batshit crazy adventure. But the more I watch it, the more it becomes just a fun movie that I actually love. If nothing else, the soundtrack is well worth the price of admission!
When this feminist, twat said hetero normative I rolled my eyes and knew that this was yet another example of woke political agendas shoehorning itself into what is just a monster movie. You can project your own personal sexual and emotional problems onto anything you want that doesn't mean it has any weight or meaning! Ugh
99% of people who hate this movie are just mad because “Noooo you can’t kill off muh wholesome family characters!1!”. They aren’t fans of Alien as much as they are only fans of Aliens and crowd pleasing one liners. This franchise will always feel most at home with a darker atmosphere.
I don’t think anyone thinks it’s a terrible film, other than the director himself. The problem is that it undoes everything Aliens did by killing off Newt at the very beginning. It’s just a major bummer.
The first Warlock was waaay better than it had any right to be. As a teenager I loved Warlock 2 but I rewatched the first one a couple months ago and it's a much better movie than the sequels.
