New Demi Moore horror so 'graphic' viewers are walking out of the cinema before finishing the film

One guy apparently walked out into the rain to vomit

One of the latest horror films to land in cinemas is so ‘graphic’ viewers have been walking out before it even finishes.

Starring Demi Moore, the film premiered on 20 September and has pretty simply been described as absolutely ‘f**ked’.

The gory movie follows a fading celebrity (Moore) who decies to use a blackmarket drug to generate a ‘younger, more beautiful, more perfect’ version of herself (Margaret Qualley). But there’s horrific side effects.

Also starring Dennis Quaid, satirical body horror film The Substance is being described as possibly ‘Moore’s finest hour’.

But while it’s being completely raved about, it’s just all too much for some.

One viewer wrote on X: “Just came out of 'the substance'. a truly arresting experience. two people walked out. I was doubled over laughing multiple times. would never recommend it to anyone I love or ever see it again. loved the whole experience and so glad I saw it in cinemas.”

As another similarly echoed: “My review of The Substance is that people walked out of our screening and as far as I’m concerned we don’t have enough movies where that might happen.”

It really got to one guy as viewer shared: “My date wouldn’t let me drive him home after The Substance because ‘we haven’t been seeing each other long enough’ for him to throw up in front of me.

“He literally just walked home in the rain to vomit with dignity. Five-star movie.”

Another said that while they loved it, four people walked out of their screening. They added: “Going into The Substance without seeing a single trailer and only knowing the very basic concept of it was a f**king trip.”

The Substance is sitting at an impressive 90 percent on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer with 71 percent from viewers.

Plenty call it the likes of ‘mind-blowing’, ‘nuts in a good way’ and ‘outstanding’.

Another confessed: “I was not prepared for The Substance. Everyone left the theatre in silence trying to comprehend what we all just witnessed.

"Its so good but so gory, so if you have a weak stomach this probably isn’t the film for you. Demi Moore is spectacular. As much as I would like to watch it a second time, I’m not sure my psyche or stomach can handle it.”

But some do call it ‘the most disgusting movie’ and ‘boring’ as it ‘went straight to ridiculousness’.

And The Sun reports that Moore was ready for this divisiveness, as she said: “When I read The Substance I thought, wow, this could be really amazing — or it could be a f**king disaster.

"So, of course, I had to say yes.

“I feel like Ghost was very similar, but I think when we push ourselves out of our comfort zone and it makes us afraid, it always makes us a little better.”
