Cohen's Alive: Looking Back at the It's Alive Films Featuring Interviews with Writer/Producer/Director Larry Cohen, Actors James Dixon, Michael Moriarty and Laurene Landon, and More... (18:14, 1080p) - Shout! produced this new making-of doc about the It's Alive Trilogy, although the second installment is only briefly covered. We hear from Cohen (shown interviewed probably on separate days at his home), three of the actors, film music historian/Herrmann expert Jon Burlingame, film journalist F.X. Feeney, cinematographer Daniel Pearl, and producer Paul Kurta. (Note that Shout! doesn't provide any on-screen credit to Kurta while he's speaking.) In English, not subtitled.
It's Alive at the Nuart: The 40th Anniversary Screening with Larry Cohen (13:27, 1080p) - Cohen speaks with a moderator at an anniversary screening of It's Alive. Though he repeats some of the same anecdotes he shares in the new retrospective doc and old commentary, he has some new ones to tell here as well. In English, not subtitled.
Audio Commentary with Writer/Producer/Director Larry Cohen - Warner recorded this commentary with Cohen ca. 2004. His memory of the film is replete with amusing and touching anecdotes. There are some extended gaps but this is a very informative track (screen-specific and non). In English, not subtitled.
Radio Spots (1:49, HD) - some radio spots that Warner had radio stations run in promoting the film. In English, not subtitled.
TV Spots (1:05, 480i) - a slew of TV spots that were broadcast during the periods It's Alive played in theaters.
Theatrical Trailer (3:03, 1080p) - a vintage trailer presented in anamorphic widescreen. The voice-over is unintentionally laughable and reveals some of the plot's hidden surprises so don't watch it until you've seen the movie.
Still Gallery (4:44, 1080p) - a slide show that presents around fifty images. These are culled from It's Alive's press kit, exhibitor manuals, lobby cards, US/international posters, and newspaper advertisements.
