About
You can stream The Substance (2024) on Max with a subscription.
A fading celebrity decides to use a black market drug, a cell-replicating substance that temporarily creates a younger, better version of herself.
Elisabeth trades her fading relevance for a cellular clone that promises to reclaim her lost youth. This neon-soaked body horror spirals into a visceral, stomach-churning nightmare about the impossible cost of perfection.
