The Nude Vampire

The Nude Vampire (Le Vampire Nu) is a French film directed by Jean Rollin and released in France in 1970. Under the 1976 Copyright Act and the Berne Convention Implementation Act, French films of this era are subject to URAA/GATT restoration (17 USC § 104A). The film was under copyright in its source country (France) on the URAA date of January 1, 1996, as France provides a term of life of the author plus 70 years. Therefore, its US copyright was automatically restored if it had previously entered the public domain due to non-compliance with US formalities (like lack of notice or registration). Furthermore, the film is actively managed by Redemption Films and Kino Lorber, who have released high-definition restorations and maintain active streaming licenses (e.g., on platforms like Kanopy and Kino Now). This active commercial exploitation by established distributors indicates that the chain of title is intact and the work is not considered public domain or an orphan work.
