Special Features:
  • Commentary features film historians Samm Deighan, Heather Drain, and Kat Ellinger.
  • Interview (16:55, SD) is a 2007 conversation with cinematographer Franco Villa and actress Mariangela Giordano. While they're recorded separately, both participants seem slightly bewildered to be discussing "Malabimba" decades after its initial release. Villa explores the state of the Italian film industry at the time of production, his use of the Balsorano's Castle location, the sexual content of the material, and his resignation with the hardcore shots that were added to the feature by the producer without anyone's consent. He refers to the effort as a "dignified piece of work," which is an incredibly strange statement to share. Giordano is a bit more candid about her time on "Malabimba," initially drawn to the part of a nun, giving her an acting challenge. She discusses her time inside the castle, working around incredible amounts of mold that were whipped into the air by fans, leaving her deathly ill. However, she remains positive about director Andrea Bianchi, only to share an anecdote about his abusive behavior towards actress Katell Laennec. Co-stars are assessed, the iffy mental state of one particular crew member is recalled, and the whole issue of nudity is inspected, with the interviewee admitting she wouldn't have a career without it.
  • German Promotional Still Gallery (1:23) collects nude images from "Malabimba."
  • Theatrical Trailer (4:08, SD)
