Viewers shocked by ‘messed up’ Netflix sex scene

A bizarre sex scene in this new Netflix series has viewers challenging each other on social media to watch and film their reactions.

Social media can be a great way to discover great shows you might have missed, and TikTok is no exception.

Netflix’s Brand New Cherry Flavor is currently getting a boost from the video-sharing app, as users challenge each other to record their “blind reactions” to one of the series’ strangest scenes.

ICYMI: Brand New Cherry Flavor follows fictional filmmaker Lisa N. Nova (Rosa Salazar), who moves to Hollywood in hopes of turning her provocative short film into a feature. While struggling with rejection, Lisa meets producer-director Lou Burke (Eric Lange), who promises to help her break into show business.

One of the more PG-rated shots from the sex scene.

When he turns out to be a predator, Lisa does the natural thing — she hires a witch named Boro (Catherine Keener) to curse him. But as our heroine soon finds out, making a witchy deal comes with some… unexpected side effects, like regularly throwing up newborn kittens.

The show’s body horror peaks in episode four (titled “Tadpole Smoothie”), when Lisa develops a mysterious new wound on her abdomen that produces yet another kitten. Rather than panicking, she decides to invite her new lover, Roy Hardaway, to hook up. Roy focuses on the wound to get her off, even sticking his entire hand into it at one point. As far as kinks go, that one certainly stands out from the crowd!

A sex scene with an open wound – something I didn’t need to see today.

Unsurprisingly, TikTok users watching the scene without context were pretty stunned, with one calling it “messed up” and another quipping, “I’m suing”.

Everyone go watch brand new cherry flavor episode 4 at 35 minutes on Netflix right now. 😐 I’m flabbergasted.
