The quick cash-in proves to be a much more mature and comprehensible work Very interesting seeing the same sets and most of the same scenes from the Bela Lugosi Dracula of the same year given extra life in this Spanish language version. Universal had the English speaking cast and crew shooting on the sets in the day and the Spanish speaking cast and crew shooting over night, with the Spanish version to be released in their Latin market at the same time as the American version was released.
An anecdote shared on a special feature doc was that the Hispanic crew would arrive early to see the dailies that the Americans had shot and then try to do better. I believe it in most cases.
The script, costumes, blocking, and framing of shots were not exactly the same as in the more well known version. When compared next to the classic version it is a mixed bag with some elements coming across stronger and some weaker.
Other people here on Flixster have stated it before, however I'll repeat that Carlos Villarias as Count Dracula is not as strong of a performer. Though I didn't realize until I saw this version with a very toothy Dracula that neither Villarias or Lugosi wear prominent fangs.
Lupita Tovar as Eva instead of Mina wears flimsier outfits and gives a good performance, except that the scene when she tries to bite her fiancee does not seem as lustful as the Americans were able to pull off. Norton as Juan Harker, which makes me giggle, seemed more concerned for Eva and physically willing to confront the Count. Similarly Arozamena Van Helsing portrays a bulkier, slightly younger, and more physically able force against Dracula's evil. Pablo Alvarez Rubio as Renfield overall gives a more nuanced and believable portrayal of madness.

So when it came time for Universal Pictures to shoot their soon-to-be classic horror feature Dracula , they figured the best way to reach a Spanish-speaking audience was to do just that:
Renfield has surely been bitten by Dracula. These are for reference only and should be considered illustrative. The perfect cupcake for every occasion.
Swirled and sprinkled, dipped and glazed, or otherwise fancifully decorated, cupcakes are the treats that make everyone smile. Pure luxury through sustainabilitya]this new way of dining is low impact on the planet and high impact in style and glamour.
