A few thoughts on the movie "The Substance" (Massive Spoilers)

First of all, Demi Moore is fantastic, especially when Elisabeth Sparkle gets absolutely petty after Sue starts delaying switching back for longer periods and in an alternate universe, she would be the Evil Queen in the "Snow White" live action remake instead of Gal "war criminal" Gadot.

Demi getting to act deranged is everything to me.

Second, instead of injecting herself with the leftover Activator, what if Sue tried to stabilized herself with someone else's spinal fluid? Does it only work if it's from the original, hence the arc words "REMEMBER: YOU ARE ONE"?

I just realized that I'm describing the plot of "The Leech Woman", which also is about an aging woman who uses a substance to make herself younger as well as harvesting a specific bodily fluid to keep herself young.

In the opening moments of pulpy 1960 horror b-movie The Leech Woman, nurse Sally (Gloria Talbot) warns endocrinologist Dr Paul Talbot (Phillip Terry) about a mysterious patient waiting to see him in reception. “She looks like she just crawled out of a mummy’s tomb,” Sally shudders. “She gives me the creeps!” “Old women always give me the creeps,” the not-very-chivalrous Talbot sneers. The woman in question is Malla (Estelle Helmsley, pictured), a wizened ancient-looking crone who claims to be 150 years old – and that the witch doctors in her remote tribal village in Africa know the secret to restoring youth. To access the elixir (a powder called naipi), Talbot must accompany her to Africa. The opportunistic and amoral Talbot agrees. But when Malla encounters Talbot’s wife June (Coleen Gray), she suddenly hisses, “You will never escape me! You are the one in my dreams of blood!” What happens next?

I was gonna suggest a horror movie where rich women did murders for the pituitary glands of younger people so they could stay pretty, but then I realized we already had that, and, well

Chris: The Leech Woman is a b/w drama / thriller about a nasty old alcoholic lady who finds out the secret of rejuvenation from a prune of an old lady, but the rejuvenation has a cost, saw this hosted by Svengoolie, something of a bore of a film since she did not turn into a big fat slimy ugly leech, so Avoid.

Richie: Very similar to The Night Strangler which I enjoyed a million times more, skip this watch that, Avoid.

Revisiting old social media is an interesting experience. I looked at my Reddit page last night and discovered that I had once made a post detailing everything I liked about the MST3K B-movie feature The Leech Woman. Prior to seeing it, I had no memory of making this post. My first reaction was, "Wait, there were things I liked about The Leech Woman?" Because it is a truly awful movie. But skimming over the post, I may have had some good points.

Anyway, I'm ECSNorway there, if anyone else is still on Reddit.
