This week on the Cinemaholics podcast, we dive deep into The Substance, Coralie Fargeat's follow-up to Revenge. We discuss the film's blending of body horror and Hollywood satire as performed by Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley with Dennis Quaid. This is a more contentious episode than usual as we have somewhat diverse interpretations of the film based on our own personal reactions to its cultural commentary.

The Substance released theatrically last month through Mubi and has a 141-minute runtime.

The Substance

This week on the Cinemaholics podcast, we enter the arena to discuss Gladiator II, the long-awaited sequel that brings back Ridley Scott as director along with some fresh talent. Including Paul Mescal in the lead role alongside Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal, and Connie Nielsen. We kick off the show with some preamble about Wicked and Scott's filmography before clashing swords on the film itself. We discuss the overall themes of the film and how the action pays off the messaging. Plus we dig into the critical reception thus far and what might come next in the Gladiator franchise.

Gladiator II opened in UK theaters on November 15 with a U.S. release through Paramount Pictures a week after on November 22. The film has a 148-minute runtime and the rest of the cast includes Joseph Quinn, Fred Hechinger, Lior Raz, and Derek Jacobi.
