    2nd favorite movie of the year by the absolute slimmest margin. My personal preference goes to Late Night with the Devil but I can't deny the absolute artistry that went into this film. I loved it due in no small part to the camera work (alongside everything else). Stunningly beautiful cinematography. Thank you for the behind the scenes look.

    As an avid horror movie fan I loved this movie as I did her earlier one, The Revenge. Both movies portray women differently and both movies are extremely well shot. The reference to movies like The Fly, Basket Case, Fright Night etc are reminiscent in this movie. So naturally the Camera work speaks volumes in The Substance. I’m loving it.

      A lot of the camera work from “Requiem” is pulled directly from James Wong Howe’s cinematography in John Frankenheimer’s “Seconds” (1966). Like all mediums, a lot has been done already. It’s a matter of if you can take the old and put a spin on it again to make it fresh again. “The Substance” does this in volumes so well.
