I find it interesting that supposedly "critics of the day" didn't like it and that opinion is parroted as fact by a lot of people today.  Yet it was Chaney and Browning's highest grossing picture together and possibly Chaney's top money making film at M-G-M.

That tells me that the critics of the time were possibly very off the mark, because it seemed to win over the ticket buying public.
JACKA$$ 3-D was the top-grossing film for something like three weeks this fall.

Kinda makes you doubt the wisdom of crowds.

My hunch is that if LAM ever surfaced, it would be disappointing on two levels. For one, I suspect a more comedic feel than the "horror" stills might suggest, and I wouldn't be surprised if the vampire sequences were far briefer than pouring over those stills teases us into imagining. I'm sure an American NOSFERATU it's not.
