The film is also known as The Phantom Fiend in the United States, where it was released in truncated form in 1935.[3][4]

In the 2001 film Gosford Park, Ivor Novello is taunted that the film "should just flop like that". The screenwriter Julian Fellowes states in an audio commentary that Novello's talkie remake failed, while the silent original had been a hit.
