- Commentary One - this archival audio commentary was recorded by critic Lee Gambin. It offers plenty of factual information about the evolution of ecological thrillers, the conception of Orca: The Killer Whale, and the film's structure and style. Also, there are some observations about the horror genre's constant desire to reinvent itself over the years.
- Commentary Two - this exclusive new audio commentary was recorded by critics Howard S. Berger, Steve Mitchell, and Nathaniel Thompson. The commentators explain why Orca: The Killer Whale was a perfect project for the great Italian producer Dino De Laurentiis to tackle (whom they rightfully compare to American film producer Irwin Allen), why it is correct to point out that it was influenced by Jaws but it is not a copycat project, and why the film is effective. Also, there is lots of information about the stars of Orca: The Killer Whale, and especially Richard Harris, whose quality performance is the biggest reason the film still looks good today.
