"Boutique Blu-ray" refers to movies released on a Blu-ray disc by independent distributors. Boutique releases are differentiated from studio releases for a number of reasons. Maybe most importantly is that boutique distributors tend to focus on niche genres and interests, and they create physical media specifically for collectors. This means "boutique" is often associated with film releases on disc that contain tons of special features, unique packaging and design, and the possibility of additional collectible merchandise bundled with the movie. Boutique releases also usually have superb video and audio quality thanks to meticulous restoration, which is usually needed since many boutique labels release older movies.
