Bodies of Horror: Episode 85 - The Substance (2024) feat. Wes Harkness

Continuing January’s theme of “Faves from 2024,” Nichole covers arguably the most talked about horror film of the year: THE SUBSTANCE. After appearing on The Pod and the Pendulum Patreon episode on this film, Nichole is excited to explore the film with the wonderful Wes Harkness from Disabledland; this time from an explicitly disabled angle. Boy howdy, do we have things to say about ageism, ableism, and some very interesting/fresh takes on the film’s final act.Where to find Wes:> Disabledland Podcast: Apple Podcasts/Spotify> Instagram: @wes_of_disabledland> Bluesky: disabledland.bsky.socialWant to say hi, share your thoughts on Cuckoo or suggest a film to cover?
