Does anyone know whether the deleted and cut scenes in "Mark Of The Vampire" still exist? I'd heard that Carol Borland's role in the film was reduced due to references which could be considered to be to incestual in the script. It would be interesting to see a full length version, if these scenes still exist.

Considering this was made back in 1935 the deleted scenes are probably long gone. In the original script Lugosi played Borland's father and was having sex with her. He killed her and then shot himself (explaining the bullet wound in his head). From what I heard those scenes explaining their relationship were never shot (probably because it would have been too strong for 1935 audiences). Supposedly there are a few pictures of Lugosi approaching Borland lustfully but I've never seen them.
