Commentary features actor Dan Grimaldi.
Interview (11:30, HD) is a 2005 chat with Grimaldi, which covers performance inspirations and his loneliness while working in the dead of winter, often lunching with one of the production assistants just to find some company. Grimaldi also shares some behind-the- scenes anecdotes, and teases interpretations of Donny's psychosis.
Interview (25:30, HD) with Robert Osth (now Carnegie) is a lively discussion of the actor's experiences with "Don't Go in the House," including his casting journey and a longstanding friendship with Grimaldi, which was forged on set as the pair struggled to find sources of heat. Osth is generally good about detailing the decidedly non-union shoot, highlighting technical and thespian limitations, but his claim that the feature was made for just $10,000 is a little hard to swallow. Also interesting is Osth's explanation on how certain fire effects were achieved.
"Don't Go in the House…Again" (10:49, HD) returns to the Strauss Mansion, with Atlantic Highlands Historical Society member Greg Gaggiano acting as the host for special tour of "Don't Go in the House" moments. Once a summer home for the rich, the mansion was turned into low-income apartments in the 1970s, allowing the cast and crew to use the place as they saw fit. Now semi-restored and protected, the mansion welcomes visitors, especially those with a fondness for the movie.
"Ghost Hunting in the Strauss Mansion" (7:36, HD) returns to Gaggiano, who claims there are a "fair share of ghosts" in the enormous dwelling, revealing a second job as a paranormal investigator, sharing a few tales of eerie encounters. You can embrace Gaggiano's tales of poltergeist pursuit, trusting his authority on haunted houses, but keep in mind Gaggiano's selling a book on the subject and uses the hunting to boost tourism at the mansion.
Alternate Title Card (1:35, HD) restores "Don't Go in the House" main titles to the movie.
Additional Scene (:54, HD) catches up with Donny during one of his fits of anger in front of his beloved charred corpses.
T.V. Spot (:13, SD) is offered.
And a Theatrical Trailer (1:58, HD) is included.
