The Hercules movie Disney wishes you'd forget exists — chaos incarnate, 50 minutes of fever dream.
In Ancient Greece in the land far away, when people read Greek mythology came the time of legend – the greatest son of Zeus – Hercules. Hercules was once destined to be the King of Mycenae as his father Zeus had planned but his jealous stepmother Hera had other plans.
Production
Somehow made in 1995 yet looks like 1987 public television.
Director
Takashi Masunaga
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was one of multiple low-budget Hercules animations rushed out in 1995 to capitalize on Disney's upcoming Hercules marketing. Capitalism, baby.
The director duo also worked on 'The Adventures of Tom Thumb and Thumbelina' — proving they had a very specific niche of 'stories that shouldn't be 50 minutes.'
