Dingo Pictures Hunchback of NotreDame: Introduction

If you thought that the 1977 version was obscure, boy is this going to be interesting.

Title Screen For The Pal PlayStation Version

Dingo pictures was a notoriously cheap production company that cut their teeth on semi copyright infringement. The company is responsible for such abominations as Lion and the King and Aladin (With one 'D'). It goes without saying, all they made were knockoffs of Disney movies.

The logic was simple. Hunchback was made into a Disney movie, and so Hunchback was made into a Dingo movie. Dingo Pictures were not the only people to make ripoffs of Disney films. There was around a dozen of these knockoffs made specifically based on Hunchback by various studios, usually from Europe and South America.

I like to refer to them as 'Dizznee' movies.

Unlike the 1977 version, you can actually find this version. In Germany, where this was originally made, it was available on VHS. It may not have been released on home video in the English speaking world, but you could find it on the original PlayStation. 

Yes, the Sony PlayStation. A video game console.

That's just the beginning of the weirdness.

On top of the Hunchback cartoon, the disc also included a digital coloring book.

And a few mini-games.

I'm Not Sure Which Is Worse,
The Fact That People Paid Money For This
 or The Fact That People Were Paid To Create This

Dingo Pictures and their entire filmography gained notoriety when some films, like Hunchback of NotreDame were uploaded to YouTube for the whole world to see.

It's regarded as one of the worst adaptions. I can certainly say that it is, from what else I have seen, the worst of the Dizznee versions. The Secret of The Hunchback and Jetlag Productions's adaptation are certainly up near the worst list, but this gives them a run for their money.
