Margaret Qualley, 29, plays Sue, the younger version of Elisabeth, while Dennis Quaid, 70, stars as Harvey, the TV executive and one of the film’s antagonists.
The film, directed by French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat, tackles the issue of impossible Hollywood beauty standards.
In honor of Hollywood, Moore took to her Instagram to share terrifying behind-the-scenes pictures of her character.
“Spoiler alert,” Demi quipped, alongside photos that showed her looking unrecognizable in elaborate old face and body makeup. “Been holding onto these gems from @trythesubstance and today feels like an appropriate day to share them. Happy Halloween from Elisabeth Sparkle.”
Other images saw Moore’s face covered in blood, and her posing in a half-costumed look, complete with prosthetic arms, torso, as well as Spanks and black Birkenstock clogs.
The actress’ 5.5 million followers were creeped out by the pictures and took to the comment section to share their reactions.

Moore opened up about her first full-frontal nude scene in The Substance, which she described as “a very vulnerable experience,” cited by News.com.au.
She expressed gratitude to Qualley and called her co-star “a great partner who I felt very safe with”.
