The Last American Virgin Blu-ray Screenshots (Patreon)

[Note: Move is going well! Working on wiring up the home theater now. Should be back up to full speed by later this week, and then I'll be hitting the review pile hard next week]

From Chris: MVD reissues the early 1980s sex comedy from Cannon/MGM on Blu-ray  after Olive Films and Arrow Video in the UK put it out a decade ago.  Looks like the same extras Arrow Video produced. Hope the move is going  well and you're recovered from your illness. I should get a review  knocked out at some point today for an earlier disc.

I  had no idea what I was getting into beyond a great soundtrack of early  1980s hits from musicians like the Police, the Cars, Blondie, Devo and  others. Tons of licensed hits familiar to the teens of the era. The  movie itself is a fairly normal teen sex comedy, think American Pie or  Porky's, until 75 minutes in covering the sexual misadventures of three  teenage boys while the protagonist pines for the proverbial cute  girl-next-door. Then it drastically changes tones and absolutely flips  the script with a nasty surprise which I hated. Soured the movie for me  despite enjoying the soundtrack and cast.

Older  but serviceable transfer struck about a decade ago. Not terrible but a  little obsolete by today's more refined 4K standards. Maybe a hint of  ringing in a couple scenes and could be lightly filtered on some level,  but not particularly objectionable. I'd say the bigger issue is a color  grading which goes for bright, perky colors at the expense of everything  else. Probably doesn't quite look like it did in theaters.
