"Body Parts" Blu-ray, encoded in MPEG-4 AVC at 1080p with a 2.36:1 aspect ratio, presents a decent debut despite using an older HD master. The image quality shows some age-related softness and mild compression artifacts, yet maintains reasonable clarity in gore zones, robust details, film grain, and natural skin tones. Colors are slightly muted but feature effective blues, yellows, and vibrant reds.

Audio: 75

“'Body Parts' delivers an authoritative and engaging DTS-HD MA 5.1 mix with well-defined orchestration, immersive surrounds, and crisp dialogue, complemented by an impressive 2.0 Stereo DTS-HD MA track that excels in atmospherics and imaging, notably shining during action sequences for clear audio balance."

Extra: 77

Scream Factory's release of *Body Parts* delivers an extensive set of bonus features, including in-depth interviews with the film's creatives such as Eric Red and Anthony Redman, revealing insights into its production and deleted scenes packed with more gore. However, fans might miss hearing directly from Jeff Fahey.

Movie: 57

Eric Red's 1991 film 'Body Parts' balances a Hitchcockian thriller with B-movie horror, featuring Jeff Fahey as a psychologist dealing with a violent transplanted arm. The Blu-ray release showcases strong performances, notable gore, and effective action sequences, though it falls short in suspense and depth.
