Personally find the ending the best part of The Substance. Previous moments felt very cliche like something I've seen before, but that outburst was like a release. I definitely watched it through my hands🙈, but beyond the shock, it really speaks to how much we are willing to ruin our lives out of self hatred. In that last moment, it felt like she finally F-CK what everyone else thinks.
That makes sense! Yeah since making this video I saw someone compare that last scene to how some people use plastic surgery as a final measure, but how that can make things significantly worse if its botched

To paraphrase the Frenchman in John Wick: Chapter 4, "The [disgust] was the point"
Nobody laughed in my theater, for what that's worth
