YES--the missing footage from FMTWM is a must!

Strong contenders would be for BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN's missing footage and the complete disintegration scene of Christopher Lee in HORROR OF DRACULA (I think the business about shots of blood squirting into the camera is bull$h!t--and probally is just the bloodier footage already reinstated in the movie) .

As I believe there is a small amount of missing footage from several movies that does exist--but nobody really gives a damn about about restoring it to current prints. Examples would be for MGM's remake of DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE (I think it was seen in television prints in the 60's as well as English ones within the past two decades) and SON OF FRANKENSTEIN (it was on youtube awhile back but not anymore). I believe there was some guy in Texas that claimed to have discovered a Mexican print of BRIDE that contained a couple of extra scenes of the villagers in pursuit of the Monster--and he contacted Universal about it--but they weren't interested. I don't remember where I read it--and I don't know if it's a load of bull$h!t or what--but it wouldn't be a surprise. Does anybody know if this is true--or just another myth?
