THE SUBSTANCE Is Coming To 4K UHD (original) (raw)
For those who want to see that finale in all its gory glory, fear not, as Coralie Fargeat's smash hit body horror The Substance is getting a 4K UHD and Blu-ray release early next year via MUBI.
Starring Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley and Dennis Quaid, The Substance has been the horror on everybody's lips in 2024 following its award-winning premiere at Cannes earlier this year.
In The Substance:
Have you ever dreamt of a better version of yourself? You. Only better in every way. You’ve got to try this product: The Substance. It changed my life. Demi Moore gives a career-best performance as Elisabeth Sparkle, a former A-lister past her prime and suddenly fired from her fitness TV show by repellent studio head Harvey (Quaid). She is then drawn to the opportunity presented by a mysterious new drug: THE SUBSTANCE.
All it takes is one injection and she is reborn – temporarily – as the gorgeous, twentysomething Sue (Margaret Qualley). The only rule? Time needs to be split: exactly one week in one body, then one week in the other. No exceptions. A perfect balance. What could go wrong?
The satirical body horror has been a huge hit both critically and financially, racking up a worldwide total of 51.5millionoffthebackofits51.5 million off the back of its 51.5millionoffthebackofits17 million budget.
The Substance is firmly on the top of the Best Of lists for many horror fans, and also non-horror fans who had their interest piqued by the effective marketing, and left nauseous after the film's Yuzna-esque finale and its 30,000 gallons of fake blood.
Special features for the 4K are yet to be announced.
