The original Lon Chaney Phantom of the Opera kind of counts -- the silent 1925 cut was later re-released in 1930 as a sound film with half the film entirely reshot. The original version survives only in 16mm prints of such poor quality that it's often omitted entirely in home video re-releases. (Kind of like the GOUT on DVD...)
