The Case of the Scorpion's Tail

Special Features (Blu-ray)

• Commentary by Ernesto Gastaldi is in Italian with English subtitles.
• Under the Sign of the Scorpion (1080p; 20:56) is a new interview with star George Hilton, who talks about his attempts to rejigger his image with this film.
• Scorpion Tales (1080p; 47:10) is a new interview with director Sergio Martino, who is quite interesting throughout, and who perhaps surprisingly states that one of his inspirations for at least the pace of this film was Z, the Academy Award winning Best Foreign Language Film from 1969.
• Jet Set Giallo (1080p; 20:06) offers critic and academic Mikel J. Koven, who avers that Martino really had no identifiable style.
• The Case of the Screenwriter Auteur (1080p; 15:35) is a visual essay by Troy Howarth focusing on Ernesto Gastaldi.
• Theatrical Trailer (1080p; 2:31) is a bit of marketing chutzpah, comparing this film to a whole host of early classics.
• Image Gallery (1080p; 2:10) comes courtesy of Peter Jilmstad.
