Is this https://lccn.loc.gov/2003636872? It’s in Spanish and directed by George Melford, but it’s on VHS and it’s dated 1992. Plus it has English subtitles.
It would be fun to see this, but I get the impression that it would involve a visit to the Library of Congress. Or maybe Cuba?
Is there more information on the Library web site that I’m missing?
It's an extra on the Dracula Complete Legacy collection; I don't think it's rare or anything, usually it gets bundled with Universal's collections of Dracula films i think.
Not rare, and outside of Lugosi's performance, is considered the better film. Think about it, the Spanish language crew could watch the English dailies and improve on their work.
It looks like any registered reader at LOC can request it for on-site use, but that seems like the only way to see it. Anyone can become a reader but you need to complete registration in-person at the building.
