It had long been rumored that there were some brief sections originally filmed for the classic movie "Horror of Dracula" which did not pass the censor's scissors in the UK and USA, but made it into some foreign prints. Most noteworthy of these clips is one showing the beginnings of Dracula's face decomposing when exposed to the sun. A Japanese print has just been re-discovered in a film archive (also in Japan) that contains these long lost clips. The first 5 reels of the movie were lost a number of years ago in an accident, however, reels 6-9 exist, and contained a few nice surprises for fans of the movie (as I am!). I've seen this movie mentioned, on occasion, in this section of the Café, and wanted to give those few who would be interested a heads up.
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".

Cool. Maybe they can reincorpserate the scenes for a special edition for people outside the UK as well.
