Special Features

• Audio Commentary: Writer/Director Rod Lurie delivers a smart, well-spoken commentary that grabs the attention from the opening seconds and never relinquishes its hold. He begins by reading a criticism of the original Straw Dogs' screenplay and moves on to bluntly discuss the criticism laid on him and his remake (or, perhaps better said, "re- imaging"), before, even, the film was released. He discusses his purposes in making the film and countering the themes in Peckinpah's film. He covers the ideas for his movie, his reasons for setting the film in the South, the altering point of view this movie offers, scenes that parallel the original but take on different meaning here, and plenty more. He also speaks on the cast, shooting locales, and other, general, commentary track elements. This is a first-class commentary; love the film, hate what Lurie's done with it, or watch it with indifference to the original, this one is well worth a listen and is easily one of the year's best tracks.
• Courting Controversy: Remaking a Classic (1080p, 7:41): Cast and crew discuss shooting in the South, differences between this film and the original, the story and themes that emerge from it, the process of creating the rape scene, and more.
• The Dynamics of Power: The Ensemble (1080p, 6:20): A look at what makes the characters tick and the qualities of the performances that shape them.
• Inside the Siege: The Ultimate Showdown (1080p, 7:29): A closer look at the making of the film's climactic action sequence, including stunt work and ensuring continuity between shoots on the stage and on the set.
• Creating the Sumner House: The Production Design (1080p, 4:09): The cast speaks on the construction of the film's primary location.
• Previews: Additional Sony titles.
