Brand New Cherry Flavor 2021

A nightmarish and neon-soaked fever dream of a show

Our Take (by Renee Cuisia)

1990s Los Angeles was both glamorous and seedy, and it’s this murky territory that filmmaker Lisa Nova (Rosa Salazar) enters as she tries to make her movie dreams a reality. Lisa is ambitious and polite enough—if not a bit naive—but when she gets screwed over, she enlists the help of a mysterious stranger (played to witchy perfection by Catherine Keener) and, together, they brew their revenge. Things then take a turn for the supernatural in this ambitious, eerie thriller that will surely sate any David Lynch fan’s appetite. 

Notable Critics

"Rarely has a story about a movie proven the old adage that "no one knows anything" quite like this."

— Steve Greene

"Brand New Cherry Flavor is a mindf**k in the best ways."

— Brian Tallerico

Synopsis

A filmmaker heads to Hollywood in the early ’90s to make her movie but tumbles down a hallucinatory rabbit hole of sex, magic, revenge — and kittens.
