A Hollywood icon from the 1980s and 1990s was completely unrecognizable in an Instagram album she posted before Halloween.
At the height of her fame, she was widely recognized for her moving performances and her fearless attitude towards on-screen nudity.
This year she broke boundaries again by appearing at the age of 61 in a full frontal nude scene in a horror film that became a sensation at the Cannes Film Festival.
In honor of the spooky season, she launched her Instagram page on Thursday to create a series of behind-the-scenes photos from that project.
Her unmistakable facial features and her still youthful figure were completely overshadowed by an old-age prosthesis and occasionally by fake blood.

Demi Moore posted the photos, which were taken on the set of her buzzy new horror film The Substance, starring her and Margaret Qualley.
“I’ve been holding onto these gems from @trythesubstance and today feels like an appropriate day to share them. Happy Halloween from Elisabeth Sparkle,” Demi wrote in the caption, checking her character’s name in the film.
Bruce Willis’ ex-wife also noted that The Substance had just become available that day on the streaming platform MUBI.
Demi leads the cast of The Substance as Elizabeth Sparkle, a movie star whose career is in decline due to her advancing age.
Elizabeth discovers a liquid called The Substance, which she can inject to create a younger version of herself to act in her place.
Sue, played by Margaret, emerges as the new youthful version of Elizabeth, who has to move her thoughts back and forth between the young and old bodies every week.
However, the process of maintaining the Sue body causes Elizabeth’s original body to age dramatically extremely quickly.
Since premiering in theaters last month, The Substance has earned over $41 million at the worldwide box office, more than double its $17.5 million budget.

It was greeted by a similarly favorable response from the critics, to the point where it now enjoys an excellent 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Demi has been known for flashing her flesh since her ‘Brat Pack’ days, when her sex scenes with Rob Lowe in the 1986 film About Last Night… drove audiences wild.
She has stripped down in films ranging from the 1993 erotic drama Indecent Proposal to the 1995 historical romance The Scarlet Letter to the 1996 comedy Striptease.
In 1991, she broke ground and caused a controversy by posing nude on the cover of Vanity Fair while seven months pregnant by her then-husband Bruce Willis.
