| Special Features: |
- Audio Interviews by Mike White ("The Projection Booth" Podcast) - this "track" features interviews with cast members Andrew Stevens, Robert Carradine, Rex Steven Sikes, and Derrel Maury. The comments only play while the film runs and since they were recorded for a podcast, they're not screen specific. White's interview with Stevens covers his acting in the Seventies and the full gamut of his producing career. Stevens admits that he "barely remembers" Massacre at Central High and The Fury. He still talks for twenty-five minutes. Carradine discusses his early career interests in race cars and music, acting in The Cowboys (1972), his vague memories of Massacre, and later films he appeared in. Sikes explains how he got started in acting, how he got the role in Massacre, his many recollections of the film, and its enduring appeal. Maury talks about being a working actor, the casting call for Massacre, auditioning for Rodney, script-reading, and playing David. In English, not subtitled.
