DISC 2
- "Twisted Tale: The Unmaking of 'Spookies'" (100:54, HD) is a feature-length documentary on the conception, creation, and mangling of the picture, bringing together a handful of production participants to comment on their experiences with the endeavor. This is a deep dive for any fan of "Spookies," and it becomes incredibly candid as it goes along, with producer Michael Lee especially hated by those who worked on "Twisted Souls," marked as the villain who destroyed a simple horror film and killed many promising careers in the process.

- Deleted Scenes (13:05, SD) are included.
- "Vipco: The Untold Story" (132:21, HD) charts the rise and fall of the British home video distributor, with honcho Michael Lee taking part in the interviews for the documentary, giving his side concerning the coldness of business demands, but doesn't go too far into the "Spookies" mess. Interviews with fans and film historians create an understanding of Vipco's industry survival, and the company's part in the "video nasty" scandal.
- Extended Interview (26:04, SD) features Michael Lee.
- Trailer (1:38)
