Deleting spurious actor credit ... how much and what kind of evidence do you want?

Hi, hutch48:

This is an interesting case. We all know "Uncle Jess" was famous for creating different versions of the same film (sometimes even 3 or 4) for foreign consumption, which allowed him to add scenes that in Spain would not overcome the puritanism of censorship. He came to the conclusion that he would have more freedom to shoot abroad than in his own country and began a long series of co-productions with Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, the United States... often using several pseudonyms for himself and those who worked on his films in an attempt to improve sales.

La fille de Dracula (1972) is a France-Portugal co-production, and you're correct that the original French credits list José Climent (Pepe Climens) only as directeur de la photographie (director of photography), not as one of the credited cast members, albeit the number of actors displayed in the opening titles is small (Fernando Bilbao is uncredited indeed).

On the contrary, as usual in Franco's films, the credit titles change in the German version. These are taken from a 2003 DVD release, so and I can't be sure that they are the original ones shown in German theaters. I also do not know if these are the credits followed by the fellow contributor who provided the information, but here there is some “José Climent” listed among the cast members.

Please note that Fernando Bilbao still does not appear in the credits. Perhaps it was an error on the part of the title designer, or perhaps “José Climent” is a pseudonym used by Fernando Bilbao in this film (it would be strange, since he's working with someone with the same name), but the truth is that there is a “José Climent” credited as part of the cast.

Given that IMDb's priority is the titles of the original version, I can only think of two solutions:

• If we believe that “José Climent” is a pseudonym for Fernando Bilbao in this film, the entry should be deleted entirely (the German version is not the original release).
• If we believe that José Climent, the cinematographer, also had an acting role in this film, we should try to find out which character he played, as it is unlikely that there are two Charlies in the same movie, keeping the (uncredited) attribute (again, the German version is not the original release).

Cheers!
