The island later served as a place of action in various films. Skull Island is the home King Kongs and a variety of other prehistoric and actually before the mammals have long since rise. In addition, it is still inhabited by the survivors of a former high culture. These live behind a large wall that they do out of protection against the huge gorilla, which they themselves Kong call, have built. In the first King Kong film King Kong and the white woman the location of the island is given at around 12 \u00b0 S 78 \u00b0 E. With a distance of about 3000 km each, the island would be almost exactly between Madagascar and Sumatra in the middle of the Indian Ocean. A striking feature of the island is the so -called Sch\u00e4delberg , which has the shape of a human skull and is around in the middle of the island – hence the name of the island Skull Island what in German Skull island means. The island has a large wall that separates a small section from the rest of the island. There is the only landing point of the island because the rest of the island is surrounded by large cliffs. A small group of indigenous people lives in a village in this area. On the other hand, there is a jungle in which prehistoric animals and kong live. Kong is revered by the indigenous people like a god, so young women are regularly sacrificed to him. It is not mentioned who was the ancestors of the indigenous people, although the attitudes suggest that the natives belong to a Southeast Asian group. At the end of the continuation King Kong’s son From 1933 it is shown how Skull Island sinks into the sea and drowns Kong’s son, while he saves Carl Denham, the main character of the film. In the original film the name is Skull Island never mentioned itself. It is only called Congs Island or Skullberg Island. The name Skull Island Only appears in his remakes. Also in the remake King Kong From 1976 Skull Island is the scene of the action. Skull Island is shown partly by Kauai, an island of the Hawaii Archipelago. The rugged coast shown in the film, on which the crew, is Kauai’s world -famous NA Pali Coast National Park. Many other island scenes were shot in Los Angeles both on an external studio (protective wall and indigenous village) as well as in a studio hall (remaining island scenes with green screen process). In some cases, this skull island differs from that of the original from 1933: Both are covered by a dense fog wall in the Indian Ocean and consist of a wildly rugged coast and a deep jungle in the mountainous inner country, but the villager village seems to be the film not to be on the coast, but much further inside the country. There is as little as a trauma mountain as well as prehistoric animals. However, a huge snake with which the Kong of this film version fights instead of the original with dinosaurs. Other fantasy creatures, such as giant insects, do not seem to be on this island. The scary in this film does not come from monstrous animals, but from the island itself. King Kong thus looks lonely on the one hand, but also more powerful. Except for the giant snake, Kong does not seem to have an enemy here who is as big as he, or even greater in order to be able to take it with him. As in the original, the indigenous people of people are presumably presented here, which should then also indicate the historical origin of this people in the film. Also in Peter Jackson’s splatter film personal Braindead from 1992 plays Skull Island a leading role. At the beginning of the film, it is shown in a review of how a zoologist discovered a new species on the island in 1957. This intersection of monkey and rat bites an older lady in a zoo who later returns as a zombie and causes a bloodbath among the city’s inhabitants. Skull Island from Peter Jacksons King Kong From 2005 the island from the original film is very similar. Again it is a long -forgotten island west before Sumatra: “A place that was thought of was just a myth”. A group of film people and seafarers are led to her by a mysterious card. At first the place was difficult to find because it seems that magnets in the region are heavily influenced and the island is often hidden in the fog. In addition, the island is surrounded by many reefs and rocks. The island seems to sink slowly, whereupon the many ruins and statues indicate in the water. Again, the island is crossed by a large dilapidated wall, lives behind the Kong. The countless generations of old ruins scattered on the entire island, which come from the ancestors of the natives, are the only remains of an old human civilization (possibly MU). The island is also populated by a number of monstrous creatures. Most of the time, these are prehistoric animal species such as dinosaurs, some of which have developed something of their ancestors. But also a few mammals such as the Great Gorilla King Kong, which is probably part of a dying species, also live on Skull Island. It also seems that the Skull Island ecosystem is unstable because there are much more meat than herbivores. Apart from dinosaurs and other large animals, there are a variety of insects and worm-like creatures on Skull Island, such as Weta-Rexes, Arachno Claws, Scorpedes and a thousand feet. The island can be divided into several smaller ecosystems: The decaying coastal region and the village The densely overgrown level The swamp and the river The moist jungle The pits and gorges The highlands (Totenkopfberg) Each has its unique collection of animals. The videogame Peter Jackson\u2019s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie is the game for Peter Jackson’s film from 2005 and was released in 2006. The player alternately slips into the role of Jack Driscoll and the King Kong . Skull Island is again the central point of the action. Only the last two levels no longer play on the island, but in New York. After a 12,000 miles long trip, the ship reached the island on October 12, 1933. The island is again inhabited by native and a large number of primeval creatures. However, the island is different than in the film this time in the Pacific Ocean. The content of game and film also differ in other points.
