However, as the star begins to crack and fade, so does Sparkle’s own sense of self-worth. Desperate to regain her beauty and youth, Sparkle turns to extreme measures, leading to shocking and gruesome consequences.

The Substance is a body horror film that has sparked both controversy and acclaim for its bold and daring approach.

Moore, who plays the aging Sparkle, embraced the unglamorous aspects of the role, shedding light on society’s unrealistic beauty standards and ageism.
