  • "Dear John" (18:42, HD) is an interview with actor John Dukakis, who began his acting career in high school, eventually making his way through college before finding a break on "Jaws 2." A professional journey began soon after, taking television work (including time on "Family Ties") to build his resume, locating a gig on "The House Where Death Lives," responding positively to the script. Dukakis discusses his relationship with horror cinema, auditioning for several slashers of the day, and he analyzes his character, finding a thespian challenge with the role. The interviewee shares his memories of co-stars, including intimidation felt around Joseph Cotten, while his chemistry with Patricia Pearcy was complicated by the on-set presence of her boyfriend. Thespian challenges are recalled, including the waxing of body hair to help resemble a teenage boy, which went horribly wrong. Dukakis offers some praise for "The House Where Death Lives," and details his post-acting career, getting into politics when his father, Michael, ran for president in 1988.
  • "Stuck in That House" (15:33, HD) is an interview with actor David Hayward, who found his way to acting in military school, acquiring discipline on the stage. Encouraged by a professor, Hayward pursued acting after college, making his way to "The House Where Death Lives," treating the opportunity as a job, accepting the thespian challenges the part offered. Memories from the production are offered, recalling the low-budget reality of the shoot and the handsy nature of his co-stars. Time with Joseph Cotton is also shared, with Hayward highlighting his professionalism. The interviewee also explores physical challenges and characterization, and he shares his disappointment in "The House Where Death Lives."
  • "Mad House" (25:12, HD) is an appreciation piece from film historian Stephen Thrower.
