I searched these here forums a bit and didn't find it noted. So, I thought I should.

The 1962 film Mothra has what appears to be two Moai in the ending scenes. When the Alilena twins are brought back to the island by Mothra.

I didn't even bother to look since I figured that was an obvious one.I showed Mothra at my show last year and built a whole tiki theme around it with the Mai Kai Gents performing.There's a lot of tiki in Japanese monster movies (King Kong vs Godzilla is another good one) and in fact I submitted an article on this very topic OVER TWO YEARS AGO to Otto for the, ahem, next issue of Tiki News...in fact I'm gonna go upstairs right now and kick his ass...AGAIN...
