I found this film while looking around IMDB one day and I was intrigued  if it was anoather one of those greeat 80s adventure movies like The Goonies, Monster Squad, Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Adventures in Babysitting, The Burbs?

There isn't much info on this movie no cover and the only story info is this

"A greedy Indian persuades his tribe to sell the lonesome 'Spirit Island' for a congress center. Instead of transferring the historical graves on it like he tells his tribe, he plans to wipe them out. By accident a group of two Indian kids and two friends from Boston on vacation are driven to the island and get in his way."

I can't find this movie at the Video Store and judging by hardly any replies i've gotten i'd say this is pretty obscure. too bad it seemed interesting and i was hoping it was anoather great adventure movie that that 80s had so many of.

There's gotta be at least one person who can tell me about this.

Is this a documentary about the Canadian "First Nations" leaders?
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.
