When we think of post-apocalyptic worlds, we think bad thoughts. Drought, famine, death, decay, destruction. All of those things are happening in Sweet Tooth, but the audience, for the most part, sees them through innocent, loving eyes. The main character of Gus is a young half-boy half-deer who, when the world began to end, was taken into the woods by his father so they could survive together. Years later, Gus is on a mission to find his mother who might just have something to do with both the end of the world and the hybrid children at the center. Filled with adventure, surprises, and incredible characters, as well as all the adorableness and loving emotion you can handle, Sweet Tooth lives up to its title and then some. It’s undeniably sweet.
