- Commentary - this exclusive new audio commentary was recorded by critics Troy Howarth, Jeremy Richey, Nathaniel Thompson, Eugenio Ercolani, and Heather Drain. Each critic comments on different segments, focusing on the style and sense of humor of the material, as well as the evolution of Tinto Brass' career and work. I thought that the comments were very fair and informative. (Brass's cinematic image is, as Howarth points out, as easily recognizable as Alfred Hitchcock's).
- Trailer - presented here is a fully restored original trailer for P.O. Tinto Brass. Music only. (2 min).
