It was definitely in reference to The Night Stalker. At one of the festival Q and A sessions, she addressed the topic. McGavin, who could never be described as a shrinking violet, attempted to direct her. He had no idea who she was and was unfamiliar with Dark Shadows and told Lara that she didn't know how to play horror/camp.
McGavin's ego was well known throughout the industry. He and Burt Reynolds co-starred in any early 1960's series called Riverboat. Reynolds left the show abruptly. Apparently, they clashed big time. When asked to comment on his working relationship with McGavin, Burt said that McGavin would be in for a big surprise on the first Easter after his death.
