PLOT SYNOPSIS


The Last American Virgin is about a close-knit group of high school friends: Gary (LAWRENCE MONOSON), the shy guy; his friend Rick (STEVE ANTIN), the ladies man; and David (JOE RUBBO), the comic foil, and their exploits in pursuit of love… or at the very least… their first time! This nostalgic time capsule chronicles the ups and downs of friendship, romance, and the bittersweet memories of youth.

VIDEO – 3½/5, AUDIO – 3¾/5


The Last American Virgin comes to Blu-ray, for the second time (Olive Films had a 2015 release), presented in its original 1.85 widescreen aspect ratio and gave it a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture actually doesn’t look half bad considering the low budget and the fact the film is going on 30+ years old. Detail tends to be good and colors appear to be well balanced without appearing to be oversaturated. There were the occasional specs and scratches but nothing overwhelming or distracting.

The movie includes a respectable enough PCM Stereo track which is rather strong providing for clear dialogue levels throughout while the catchy 1980s soundtrack gives the track good depth. It’s a fine lossless track that, like the video, perfectly serviceable.
