Viewers call to cancel Netflix after controversial Cuties premiere #CancelNetflix

Backlash against the French film “Cuties” continues to escalate, with objectors now demanding Netflix be cancelled in response to the movie’s perceived s.e.xualization of children.

“Unbelievable that they released ‘Cuties’. So child p0rn is ok now Netflix? Raise your hand if you agree this is disgusting,” wrote one Twitter user, using the hashtag #CancelNetflix.

The Twitter campaign against the streaming giant follows its release in August of a heavily criticized trailer and poster for the flick. The online outrage continues despite Netflix releasing a statement saying “we’re deeply sorry for the inappropriate artwork that we used” to promote the film.

“Netflix is comfortable with this. Plenty of people will defend it. This is where our culture is at,” tweeted one critic Wednesday alongside a clip from the film.
