The original Sega video game spokesperson Sonic the Hedgehog made several animated appearances, including this hour-long Japanese animation movie. Sonic's nemesis Dr. Robotnik reveals a horrible story about his own banishment from the Land of Darkness and a projected threat on the world. Sonic doesn't know who to trust -- especially when seduced into trying to save the planet by the President's daughter Sara, who may have ulterior motives involving a new character named Hyper Metal Sonic. Sonic the Hedgehog must take caution not to fall victim to a possible Robotnik trap. The film is overdubbed into English.
