‘Brand New Cherry Flavor’ review: A mind-altering, eccentric ride for the ages
The Hindu
Headlined by a fantastic Rosa Salazar, the exquisite-looking show skips along like a psychedelic dream
Apart from violence, sex, nudity and substance, which earn an 18+ rating, there is a new category of depravity: animal harm. Seeing that on the rating for Brand New Cherry Flavor was enough to make my heart sink. The stomach-churning promo of a cherry that looks like a bloody eye on a woman’s tongue, made my heart sink even further. . While one does need a very strong stomach for this show, with much animal harm and eye gouging, Brand New Cherry Flavor skips along like a fevered, psychedelic dream. It is like a mind-altering trip into a wildly eccentric mind. For all its excesses, however, Brand New Cherry Flavor is also rigorously logical with every single detail neatly dovetailing into the narrative.
