It's nice to see Margaret receive more recognition and it's great to see Demi's return!

[@artistathlete6525]

Yes, Its always good to see when the women have the courage to get more naked. Its quite scary how gore and mass violence is only rated PG or R in USA, but love making is X

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

She never left. What are you talking about? Also, Margaret gets a lot of attention. She young, and young women get more attention. That’s kind of what the movie addressed. External misogyny becomes internal misogyny/self hate is probably a better description. When she finally lived herself, society was still cruel and it was too late.

[@joshfaruque8929]

I love how committed Margaret was to answering that Scream Queen question.

[@dorian6606]

that was my favorite part

[@PhantomifyEponine]

Funny thing is in that episode when Monica (Courtney Cox) wanted her hair cut like Demi Moore from Ghost, at the end, Julie also asked Phoebe that she wanted her hair to be cut like Andie MacDowell (Margaret Qualley's mom).

[@VanielDeeform]

That's ture and a funny coincidence, but Monica didn't want her hair like Demi Moore from Ghost, (Phoebe stil could have turned her haircute into that style, because of the length of it) But of Demi Moore in general and lists a few films as examples of who she is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/enXYeKWabJVoicksi=wW5fTsFX90d9g5TT

[@1bwash]

Yeah, it's a horror movie that really hits in such a different way that transcends the genre

[@gerbendekker3273]

I mean Beyoncé did it. If she does it then...

[@juanrules]

No thank you to this host for ending with "I'm sure this will be a cult classic." Don't let the hard work that went into this already be given "cult classic" status. No! This was an incredible achievement that needs to be seen and given some real credit before we kick it out of the mainstream. Go see this in the theater. Take everyone.

[@gerbendekker3273]

I had the same response, but I think she used it to mean the movie has staying power as a genre film (which, granted, is actually a rare phenomenon). 'Cult classic' in the horror fandom at large (among other genres) really is a good thing, beyond whether it's insulting in this particular context

[@fredator2012]

My thoughts exactly 💯

[@butchbrewer4923]

I think she's somewhat right, this movie redefined cult classic

[@orangeants]

Definitionally, there’s nothing stopping a movie from being extremely popular and also a cult classic, it just implies there’s a dedicated fan following. Pulp fiction is a cult classic and no one could argue that it isn’t mainstream

[@Axl124124]

both deserve oscars! along with the director. What a unique movie with real social commentary. Please more movies like these. I am tired of toned down, same kind of movies.

🤨you’re not the creepy neighbor in the movie are you?

[@DezciiXx]

After turning 30 this year, ive come to understand that We never get Old mentally after the age of 25, Only our Body gets old with age. I like to think i am my younger 25 year old self in my mind but my outer shell is only aging. Now when i look at someone older i think of them as their 25 yr old self in a older shell. We never really are Old mentally. So the Saying " Act your age" is really false because i'll forever act like my 25 year old self! I now can see why people are obsessed with looking young, why we wish there's a fountain of youth, why we have plastic surgery. Because we want our outer shell match who we are on the inside. Not because we want to live forever but for others to still treat us like our 25 year old self, and not based on how our outer shell looks. In a way its comforting to know that im Never Really " Getting Old" its only my outer shell thats aging. I am Still ME on the inside end of the day.

[@denuitsmoongardens8474]

When it comes to humans theres never 1 universal truth The past year and a half ive been in mourning because ive realized certain things will never be as they were - and i definelty no longer feel 25 The years between now (just turning 35) and 30 were the years that i not only feel ive mentally aged- but those around me have noticed as well Ive met people and you can tell they still feel as you are describing- but again its never the same for everyone

[@ethanholgate2512]

Has to be the most insane movie I've seen in a very long time I had no idea it was directed by the same person who made a movie I deeply loved a couple of years ago called Revenge 2017 that was one of the most realistically violent action thriller's I'd ever seen that I thought was awesome when it came out and now she delivers another banger in The Substance my eye is on this person she's that good 🤯
