Jo Hunt — Slanted (2026)

[creaturefeaturecommando]

There's this new movie called Slanted coming out about an Asian girl who undergoes this cosmetic surgery to become a white person and obviously it's gonna go the same route The Substance and Grafted went and people are missing the point so bad, mainly white people who want to be offended on the behalf of minorities

"Why is she turning white ?" she gets mistreated as a POC and that's why she's pushed to get the surgery

"The white girl is getting more screen time than the Asian girl !" Movie isn't out yet, we wouldn't know that yet, but I feel like she'll get the same amount of screen time. Doesn't seem like they're alternating like in The Substance but who knows.

At the end of the day it's just a commentary on how whiteness is the beauty standard and how minorities feel pressured to assimilate and fit into white spaces, some minorities doing anything to appear white because white people get treated better and they have more privilege. Why do you think people will continuously fry their hair blonde and try to pass it off as their natural hair color ? Or all these stupid eye color changing surgeries where guess what, everyone wants blue eyes ! Or people bleaching their skin, because who would be crazy enough to bleach their skin until it's porcelain ? I remember back in 2019 watching a video of an African lady literally submitting herself to some weird acid/bleach/hot water treatment with Brillo pad brush and you could literally see her melanin and skin and blood scraping off into the tub.

That's how far people go to try to emulate whiteness, because like it or not, that have it the easiest so if there was this magic surgery that could just magically turn you white that line would sadly be out the fucking door and wrapped around the corner into the interstate, doesn't matter the side effects.

I absolutely hate The Boondocks season 4, but when Grandad made that magic hair cream that would literally explode people's hair and told Tom and Jazmine, instead of being horrified and washing it out, they screamed and ran "You can't take my beautiful hair from me !", when Grandad told the woman that the product was dangerous she said "These bitches don't care, they'll put anything in their hair as long is it's long and straight" and the hair was described as "white people hair" and " good hair"

Literally in the trailer for Slanted it's a bunch of white people who may or may not have gotten the surgery going "It feels good to be white" I'm going to need ya'll to actually watch and absorb before you get mad when ads like these have been literally going on since 1935 to Today, targeting minorities, mostly women, basically claiming that they'll have an easier and better life if they lighten their skin.

Anyways I'm probably gonna watch it because I saw a glimpse of the protagonist covered in blood at the prom in front of a horrified crowd so like I really want to see if this goes Substance/Grafted levels of Body Horror since both have similar endings

Spoilers:

The Substance: Sue ends up taking the substance again and turning into Monstro Elissasue, a gigantic mass of flesh and blood with limbs and titties and teeth and eyeballs everywhere and a screaming Elizabeth on her shoulder, she eventually gets jumped by the crowd and beaten until Elizabeth's face manages to break free and dissolve in a clot on her star

Grafted: Wei kills one of her victims boyfriends, gets found out and runs, the skin grafting serum she made to wear other people's skin gets spilled just as a homeless man hides her. Months later, her aunt is looking for her and it reveals that the serum has made her fuse with the homeless man's corpse and now she's this weird blob of Wei, fingers and flesh under a blanket. We don't know what happens to her after this.
