Last night, I was in Oakland's only tiki bar... The Conga Lounge (http://www.congalounge). Behind the bar, they were playing a VHS collection of Tiki-esque movies (Barbarella, Jason and the Argonauts...) when I look up, I noticed a Moai Movie. The owners says he doesn't remember where he recorded it from. I'm hoping someone out there knows where to get this crazy short film. Here's a plot summary: The Moai movie is about a Moai on Easter Island comes to life. He blows his nose and shows the camera pebbles in his tissue (cause he has this big Moai rock head). Next, a commercial airline flies overhead, so the Moai sticks out his thumb, and the plane stops on a rock and picks him up. The Maoi lands in some big city… maybe New York and he is wondering around like Crocodile Dundee when he spots a museum with sculptures. He goes in the museum and steals a Thai goddess sculpture… as if to marry her. But, then he gets hit by a car while carrying her across the street and her head breaks off when he drops her…. Distraught he walks into the ocean to return to Easter Island. It was so bizarre and funny… I have to have this film. |
