Yes, El Vampiro did show up on US TV sometime in the mid 60s. I recall this quite vividly, because it was actually the very first horror film I ever watched-- or stumbled upon-- when I was around six years old and it showed up one Saturday afternoon on, I believe, WOR, Channel 9's Million Dollar Movie. Unfortunately, during the finale in the crypt I got busted by my sister for watching a horror movie, and I had to wait about another twenty-five years before I got to see how it ended.
Re the US film The Vampire (aka Mark of the Vampire), I really like this film a lot now as an adult, but I can't even begin to describe the incredible disappointment I experienced and resentment I harbored toward this picture as a ten year old, because the film popped up with its alternate title one Saturday night on Creature Features, and I was eagerly anticipating that I was finally going to get to see the 1935 Tod Browning/Bela Lugosi version!
