Are there sound digests for FIEND WITHOUT A FACE, MONSTER OF PIEDRAS BLANCAS or HIDEOUS SUN DEMON?

I think these were issued as Super 8 features, and also silent abridgments. Seems like I saw a two-reel sound cutdown of FIEND when I was a kid, but it would have been 16mm. Have also seen a box for PIEDRAS BLANCAS labelled "sound," but perhaps that was the feature.

Thanks!

I have this and it is a Super 8 sound 200ft digest.

Also compiled a headline reel and digest of Hideous Sun Demon to make a longer digest but alas it is silent.

200ft silent digest

Hideous Sun Demon Headline Version

There is also a 400' silent version of Blood On His Lips. I wish it had been released in sound.

I have the 4x400' release of Fiend, however I've never seen a cutdown.

Very interesting. I had a feeling that "Man Turned Monster" reel was HIDEOUS SUN DEMON--even though the monster doesn't look "right," the woman in the window sure does.

That sound PIEDRAS BLANCAS digest is going near the top of my want list. Thanks!

I have the 1x400' digest of "Fiend". Mountain Films #T344.

We had the 4 x 400 foot feature version of monster from Pieadras Blancas, one of my biggest regrets is selling this many years ago, a great B movie and as I now know it was a very rare feature print with excellent print and sound.

This day shall go down in history! And I am thrilled to be a part of creating it. I not only have a film that Doug doesn't have, but the box art also!! [Eek!]

This is surely a monumental event! [Big Grin]

Pasquale, sorry to be a moron. Is that FIEND WITHOUT A FACE digest sound or silent?
