Tikis are Polynesian carvings made out of stone or wood in humanoid form, sharing the name of the first man in Maori mythology. They represent deified ancestors, and are often used to mark the boundaries of sacred or significant sites. With their exaggerated expressions and intricate appearance, tikis tend to look quite creepy and fearsome — so it's not surprising that, in the realm of fiction, they're often portrayed as malevolent beings. Expect these to pop up in Tropical Island Adventure settings, giving tourists and adventurers quite the fright. Compare Evil Mask, Living Statue, Artifact of Doom. Examples |

Kirby Super Star: Wham Bam Rock, the last opponent of The Great Cave Offensive, is a giant tiki giant who attacks Kirby when he's near towards exiting the cave. Originally, it lacked the tiki design in the original release before it was given in Super Star Ultra. | |

Crash Bandicoot: While most of the living tiki masks are allies of Crash and the other characters, a few are villainous. These include Uka Uka, the Evil Twin of the benevolent Aku Aku, who wants to rule the world, the four evil elemental masks revived by Uka Uka to serve as minions in Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, and Tikimon in Crash Twinsanity (providing the page image), a gigantic Multi-Armed and Dangerous tiki statue that the Evil Twins sic on Crash and Cortex. | |

Rayman 2: The Great Escape has the Guardians of the Four Masks of Polokus: Axel, Umber, Foutch, and Grolem 13, with Axel, Foutch, and Grolem 13 resembling giant flying torso-like tikis while Umber looks like a more traditional giant full-body one. Rayman must fight Axel, Foutch, and Grolem 13 to get their masks (though Grolem only appears in the PS2 version of the game, with his mask simply being given to Rayman by a Baby Globox instead in other versions of the game), but Umber is an aversion, as he just ferries Rayman across the lava river in his room when he jumps on his head, though you do need to jump off him quickly at the end before he fully sinks. The PS1 version explains this as Ly contacting Umber's spirit and convincing him to help Rayman. | |

There is also the Muddrake Gladiator, though in that case, it's actually a bunch of natives hiding behind and carrying a giant tiki mask, and the boss of The Sacrifice of Maui in the Genesis and PC version, a creepy tiki-snake thing. | |

This trope is a major plot point in all 3 episodes of The Brady Bunch story arc where they visit Hawaii. When the boys find a tiki (unearthed at the construction site that Mike was there to visit), all sorts of mishaps start happening to the group, e.g., Greg wiping out while surfing and Alice throwing her back during hula lessons. This prompts the boys to seek out the original burial ground where the tiki belongs. A creepy, 4-note musical phrase was played when it was shown. | |
