MOONWALKER is a game that was created after the movie MOONWALKER came out. The movie is based upon Michael being chased or haunted by evil. When his three friends are in trouble, he rescues them in an effort to stop the evil. Within the movie is his 'Smooth Criminal' music video- it's amazingly choreographed and...it's just amazing.
The game has a similar plot, but has a few twists not included in the movie. In the game, Michael helps save children from harms way: such as mobsters/gangsters, zombies, and other dangers. I've never played it myself, but many sources say that the music is what makes this game sparkle. The game features some of Michael Jackson's 80s hit songs such as:
Beat It
Thriller
Another Part Of Me
Billie Jean
Bad
and of course Smooth Criminal
