Suggested by geekking97

June 21, 1996. Rated PG (Theatrical Cut). Rated PG-13 (Director's Cut). Theatrical Cut is pretty much the same as the animated film. The Director's Cut is much darker and more adult. The Gargoyles while being the comic relief, their humor is toned down and confirmed to be imaginary. Brutish Guard and Oafish Guard are portrayed in a serious manner. The song A Guy Like You is not over the top and flashy. Judge Claude Frollo is even more brutal and violent. The death of Quasimodo's mom is more graphic. Judge Claude Frollo is killed by Esmeralda in the end and the alternate ending (Esmeralda kicks Judge Frollo off the cathedral). Quasimodo is killed by Judge Frollo in the alternate ending. Judge Claude Frollo's death is more graphic. The film actually shows you slaughter gypsies in Parisians during the manhunt for Esmeralda.
