The Long Ears' tribe dominates the Short Ears, due to their continual success in the annual birdman race. The Short Ears' desperate attempt to regain the crown leads to lifetime friends being pitted against one another. Directed by Kevin Reynolds, who helmed the ill-fated 'Waterworld'. Review: Worth watching! - Don't panic that the name of the film isn't in English on the cover - it is an English language version. One of the great underrated films of my era. Always very thought provoking. Review: finally, a widescreen version! - I have been totally confounded that this film has not come out domestically in the USA. (Worst movies that this seem to get first run showings and last in theatres 3 or 4 months!) So I first bought a pan and scan version from Korea, yet have been looking for a widescreen; proper aspect screen ratio version to really enjoy the beauty of the photography, as the film is visually stunning. And I found it in this release, and it looks great. (I have an all-region player to show this with...) BTW, I really enjoy the story and acting as well...and being a fan of Jason Scott Lee plus the mystery of the Stones brought the attention of the film originally to me, but it sure as been a project tracking down a good copy to see it. It was worth it... ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Chiefy Elkington, Emilio Tuki Hito, Eru Potawa-Dewes, Esai Morales, Frenxa Reuben, George Henare, Gordon Hatfield, Hori Ahipene, Jason Scott Lee, Kevin Costner, Kevin Reynolds, Mario Gaia, Rawiri Paratene, Ruihana Rewa, Sandrine Holt, Tim Rose Price Contributor Chiefy Elkington, Emilio Tuki Hito, Eru Potawa-Dewes, Esai Morales, Frenxa Reuben, George Henare, Gordon Hatfield, Hori Ahipene, Jason Scott Lee, Kevin Costner, Kevin Reynolds, Mario Gaia, Rawiri Paratene, Ruihana Rewa, Sandrine Holt, Tim Rose Price See more | | Format | PAL | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Entertainment in Video | | Number of discs | 1 | | Runtime | 1 hour and 42 minutes | ## Images ![Rapa Nui [VHS] [1994] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91eUXC+hqDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth watching! *by F***W on 26 October 2020* Don't panic that the name of the film isn't in English on the cover - it is an English language version.

It was worth it... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This masterpiece deserves more praise than is the case. *by H***N on 14 June 2009* Since my youth the fate of Rapanui (which is the correct spelling, by the way) or Easter Island has fascinated me immensely, because it is a border case of humanity, and yet as good a representative of human society as one can get anywhere, the world in miniature. I was introduced to the story of Rapanui by the famous explorer Thor Heyerdahl in his books AKU AKU. I remember how thrilling and frightening I thought it was when I read the description where he and his native companion almost got stuck in the secret tunnels and caves. Thor Heyerdahl had his own theories about the origins of the two distinct ethnic groups and it may well be so, how else could one explain the similarities between some Andean cultures? Of course this is one of several possible interpretations of historic material, but I liked the focus on deforestation in the film. The massacre at the Poike plateau where most of the Longears lost their lives, was also described and what led to it. The escape of the young couple was a good reminder than there is always something positive after the worst failure. And the ending for the old chief was also surprisingly and brilliant. Congratulations! I don't understand why this film is not better recognised? This masterpiece deserves more praise than is the case. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/66471529-rapa-nui-vhs-1994](https://www.desertcart.es/products/66471529-rapa-nui-vhs-1994) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
