Bloody Moon's Blu-ray presentation by Severin Films boasts an impressively vivid 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 transfer in a 1.78:1 aspect ratio. With rich color saturation, especially vibrant primaries, and a natural filmic grain, it surpasses Severin's other horror releases. Fine details and contrast are generally excellent, albeit with occasional inconsistencies in darker scenes.

Audio: 50

The LPCM 2.0 mono track of Bloody Moon delivers clear and clean audio with well-separated mids and highs, engaging imaging, and precise vocals despite often stilted dialogue and a corny English dub, making it a strong if not outstanding addition to this cult classic's presentation.

Extra: 26

Franco's Moon, a 19-minute featurette in SD, showcases director Jesús Franco’s mix of cantankerous and jolly moods as he critiques the film's mishandling while sharing amusing production anecdotes. The package also includes the original theatrical trailer in SD.

Movie: 56

Bloody Moon is a testament to Jess Franco's style, combining nudity, gore, and quirky humor, yet marred by laughably bad dialogue and dubbing. While its explicit violence and gory effects are striking, the plot and acting often plunge into absurdity, making it both entertaining and cringe-worthy for cult film enthusiasts.
