Cenobitehell I watched this film expecting it to be a cheapo indie slasher film, but I was exceptionally impressed by the production values and especially by the perfomance of Theodore Bouloukos as Ivan, the sleazy career-minded photographer, Theodore played the role brilliantly, giving a performance that put me in mind of a sort of mixture between Stanley Tucci's Jack Warner in FX's "Feud: Bette & Joan" and William Petersen's Gil Grissom from "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation". The overall story of "Bag Boy Lover Boy" is an urban drama-cum-thriller in the vein of Michael Powell's classic film "Peeping Tom", presenting us with the tragically lonesome character Albert (played beautofully by Jon Wachter), wanting to further his creative prospects as a studio photographer, but with a kinky sort of death-fetish tie-in. Andres Torres certainly pulled out all the stops with this movie and I will be eagerly looking out for any of his future titles, especialy if they are as good as "Bag Boy Lover Boy".

thesar-2 Don't just vote for Pedro, vote out this dark and disgusting cousin of Napoleon.What an odd little "movie." Probably more of an experiment or a lost bet from drunk buddies, this comedy-horror is so out there, you feel more uncomfortable than entertained. And, even more strangely, this does have a plot and straight line from beginning to end. An absolutely repulsive (inside and out) NYC hot dog vendor undeservedly gets his big break into modelling and is pushed too far from those using him. Way too far.Not really to be taken seriously, as this is supposed to be a comedy, our never-hero ventures into the dark side while trying to, ah-hem, model himself after his sadistic mentor. Things don't go well.Admittedly, I did laugh a couple of times, namely with said boss/mentor. He did steal every scene he was in and that's totally a good thing because the actual lead actor was not pretty to look at. Yeah, that was the point, but once you see how gross he is on the inside, his exterior becomes even more repulsive. Not really recommended as I don't see anything of mention here. It was, again, an uncomfortable experiment and the few laughs were not worth the measly 77 minutes. Plus, about half-way through, they tried, unsuccessfully, different horror subgenres that made no sense/connection to any of the motivations in addition to somewhat ripping off the movie: Maniac. See this hot dog man? Catch the next vendor.***Final thoughts: I *knew* there was a reason I hated hot dogs!

Cody Rapp (biscutbuu69) Bag Boy Lover Boy follows Albert a lonely guy who works at a hotdog stand, lives in a crappy run-down apartment and just looks at the pin-ups on his walls and wonders what life has to offer him. One day Albert is approached by a photographer who is strangely inspired by Albert's thick accent and grotesque face. The photographer, Ivan, offers Albert a job modeling for him but Albert doesn't want to model, he wants to photograph. When he is given the opportunity to use the skills Ivan inadvertently taught him Albert goes down a very dark path. It's a shame that it took 3 years for this film to hit home media cause this film, despite some performances and the low budget, is kind of great. I felt the writing was really solid all around and all the actors at least tried to give a good performance. The lead gives a really good performance which helps to make Albert a very sympathetic character. I think the film was very well paced and never really boring I didn't have any real problems with the film, I think its also very interesting it has that gritty grimy New York look that Taxi Driver or Maniac has. The film even has some really good gross-out humor similar to some of John Waters early works and psychosexual tones reminiscent of Buio Omega. Its a film I would highly recommend to fans of cult films and John Waters early low budget stuff. If you don't like cult films and can't stand weird sexual elements and gross humor do not see this film.

bandito worth 7 + for effort and writing and overall tone balance.check out some of the critics reviews on IMDb.well choose cast and decent cinematography I seen lot worst b movies before.Be nice if director come out with another project as good or better, maybe with same main actor in as he probably did it for peanuts for a friend.deserve the wins it got
