Review Date:

Bag Boy Lover Boy stands out for its unique oddity and generally strong technical merits, though it's not for everyone.

Video: 73

Bag Boy Lover Boy's Blu-ray, presented by Severin Films, features an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1 from Arri Alexa captures. While detail levels are generally good, the film's overall appearance is flat and drab, with a desaturated palette and cool grading that can render flesh tones nearly purple. Dimly lit scenes see a marked decline in detail.

Audio: 73

Bag Boy Lover Boy's LPCM 2.0 mix lacks a wow factor but delivers reliable performance with fine dialogue fidelity and prevalent outdoor ambient effects, despite limited spatial placement.

Extra: 31

The Blu-ray extras for "Bag Boy Lover Boy" feature a high-definition trailer, an insightful audio commentary by key crew members, and Jon Wachter's student films presented in 1080i black and white. These silent films, particularly "The Never Starting Story" which includes mandatory commentary, offer a unique glimpse into Wachter’s early work.

Movie: 36

Bag Boy Lover Boy's Blu-ray debut showcases its bizarre, almost surreal mix of comedy and horror, blending a simplistic but disturbingly executed plot reminiscent of early David Lynch films, with peculiar performances and incomplete character development, appealing to those with a taste for dark humor.
