10 Upcoming Movies You Won't Believe Are Real
10. The Substance
Every year at the Cannes Film Festival there's at least one big shocking movie that turns everybody's heads and causes some angry walkouts, and this year it was most certainly The Substance - the second feature from Coralie Fargeat (Revenge).
The film revolves around Elisabeth (Demi Moore), an ageing movie star who is struggling to get work and so uses a black market drug to generate a younger version of herself, Sue (Margaret Qualley), which she can temporarily inhabit. But of course, this inevitably has tricky complications.
Without giving too much away, critics have lauded the film as a jaw-dropping and at times disgusting delve into body horror that offers up a career-best performance for Demi Moore.
To see name Hollywood actors hurling themselves into extreme body horror is one thing, but for Moore to tackle such a daring role at this stage in her career is just massively unexpected in the best way possible.
