Femme Frights Film Club: Cat The Substance (2024)

A feminist horror film club that provides a space for horror fans to discover and discuss films revolving around the female and feminine presenting experience. Pay-what-you-can (suggested $5-20) –no one turned away for lack of funds.

About the Film

The Substance (141min) is a 2024 body horror film written and directed by Coralie Fargeat. It follows a fading celebrity, Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore), who, after being fired by her producer (Dennis Quaid) due to her age, uses a black market drug that creates a younger version of herself (Margaret Qualley) with unexpected side effects. Noted for its satirical elements and grotesque, hyperrealistic imagery, The Substance is Fargeat's second feature film, after Revenge.
