So, 'That Boy Next Door' from '83 is this intriguing collection of three shorts from Nova. The titular piece has this playful, almost mischievous vibe, with a bright-eyed protagonist who finds himself in some unexpected, intimate situations. It's got a casual pacing that allows you to soak in the moments, with some practical effects that feel genuine. The performances are a mix of earnestness and cheekiness, which gives it a distinct charm. It's hard not to appreciate the way these themes of desire and discovery unfold in a lighthearted manner, making it a unique entry in its niche.
This movie is part of a limited release from Nova, so finding it in good condition can be a bit of a challenge. It's not the most widely circulated title, which adds to its appeal for collectors looking for something off the beaten path. Given the somewhat obscure nature of the director and the genre, it garners interest from those who appreciate the more eclectic side of film history.
