Hamilton and his college students Rachel and Christopher arrive with their scientific equipment, followed by Jack Driscoll who persuaded Englehorn to aboard the ship to get an interview with Carl Denham.

To Ann's shocking surprise, famous actor Brad Maxwell was onboard, whom she has a crush on. As Jack finishes his interview with Carl but the ship has already departed. Carl chimes in on him that having a journalist around would be beneficial for his picture and be a big story for the papers when they return.

Later, Carl then starts filming a scene on deck with Ann and Brad. Upon finishing the scene Ann unfortunately soon discovers that Brad only cares for his self interests. However he did had praise from Jack and Rayna.

Jack interviews with Carl Denham along with Preston in the mess deck one night discussing the truth about where they're heading. In which Hayes, Rayna, O'Neil, and Lumpy join in to confront Denham of the matter. Carl then comes clean and shows them along with Englehorn a map he acquired from Norwegian skipper in Singapore three year ago that depicts the location of the mythical Skull Island, said to be the last undiscovered land in the world. Though Hayes, Lumpy and O'Neil counter Carl's claim said there was more. Several years ago they came across a drifting castaway who had been at sea for weeks. The castaway had told them that his crew was sailing in the Indian Ocean until they were shipwrecked on an island hidden in fog and spoke of a huge 100ft stone wall that build so long ago, know knew who built it but it was still strong today as it was centuries ago. When Jack asks why the wall was built, Carl further said that before the castaway raved about a mythical giant creature feared by the locals “said to be neither beast nor man, but monstrous in nature.” Before there was more to be said, the castaway dies from a heart attack. Carl then finishes their conversation that the creature has name, "Kong." Unbeknownst to them, Niles was out in the hallway eavesdropping in on the whole story then walks away.

After six weeks at sea pass by, Jack and Ann become more closer with each other. As tensions rise among the crew, Englehorn considering of changing course when his compass and their navigational equipment start to malfunction and the ship enters a fog banks. Everyone comes out see themselves unnerved and unsettled. and barely crash into jagged rocks. As he fog begins to clear at daybreak, to Carl's amazement and to Ann's, Jacks and the crew's disbelief, they see Skull Island in sight with a stone wall and a giant mountain with a rock formation shaped like a skull.

After dropping anchor at the island shoreline, Denham arranges a scouting party along Englehorn, Ann, his film crew along with Jack, Rayna, Preston, Hamilton, Christopher, Niles, and 8 other sailors. Jack inquired that it may not be a good idea to bring Ann to the island, but Carl dismisses him. They all rowed ashore while Briggs takes charge of the ship.

On the beach as they begin shooting for Ann's screaming scene, they all hear faint drumming and venture forth through the rocky cavern to a forest coast to investigate the sound while two sailors stay behind to guard the boats. They soon discover a large native village in front of a huge stone wall and wooden gate that cuts off from the rest of the island. They witnessed the natives performing a tribal ceremony and they see a young black woman distressed in garments. Englehorn states that woman is to be a human sacrifice. When Carl attempts to film the village Shaman was about to make his decision, the chieftain suddenly spots the crew and halts the ceremony. The chieftain and his warriors approaches the intruders. Though Englehorn's native tongue was rusty, but Hamilton is able to understand native speech but the Chief motions then to leave at once. The Chieftain's son and daughter, Amaya and Faraji come from the crowd to act as mediators between both sides for they speak english much to the crew's surprise. The two explained to them that they are intruding their sacred ceremony and demands them to leave. Carl tells Hamilton to ask the chieftain of what the ritual is about. Faraji translates his fathers words that the young woman is a bride for their island god, Kong. Amara tells them for it is their way of life for centuries.

The blind Shaman walks slowly joins the chieftain at his right side and disturbingly points out at Ann Darrow, the "golden haired one." Captivated by her beauty, the blind shaman choses her to be a gift for their deity. Agree with his decision, The chief then demands the crew to give them Ann in exchange for six of their women. Denham declines, thus angering the chief, Faraji tried to reason with him that Ann is an outsider and has nothing to do with the ceremony, but he casts his son aside in a fit of rage and rallies the tribe to try and take Ann by force until the Shaman halts him and whispers in his ear. The crew then make their way back to the beach, with J.B. assuring that they'll return tomorrow to be better acquainted.

Back on the ship, Jack confesses his feelings for Ann on deck and the two almost shared a kiss when Lumpy interrupts telling Jack that Englehorn and Denham wanted a word with him. Ann interjects telling him it's alright that she'll be in her cabin in a short while. Shortly after Jack leaves, Ann was by herself humming her feelings for Jack when a stealth group of natives, who seizes Ann over the side and drugging her unconscious then carries her away in their canoe to shore. 2 hours later before midnight, Englehorn talks with Carl and Jack on the bridge when they notice torches on shore and the upbeat of the drums from the village. At the same time, Theo was watching the village afar on deck when he comes across a boney necklace then runs off to the bridge.

In the village, Ann, still drugged and dazed, now wearing sacrificial garments and barefooted is being prepared for the sacrifice by the Shaman before being dragged all the way to the top of the wall while the natives chant "Kong! Kong! Kong!". Theo enters the bridge and shows the necklace to Englehorn, Jack, Rayna, Hayes, and Denham, who all recognized it belonged to the natives, only to realize that Ann has been taken. Englehorn mounts a rescue party and the crew is being mounted, stocking up with weapons - rifles and machine guns. Carl and his film crew also discreetly load their film gear into another boat. The five lifeboats row towards the sandy beach.

On top of the wall, the natives' tie Ann's arms to a wooden framework and the Shaman blesses her and whispers in her ear in english that she would bring peace to Kong. The framework tilts Ann gently across the chasm and lowered to a rock promontory on the other side which is the sacrificial alter with two great pillars. The drums stop and the natives lineup at the top of the wall. Ann struggles free herself - to no avail when the drums immediately stop beating then noises were heard coming from the jungle, branches snapping, leaves rustling and Ann sees massive figure through the trees. The oily smoke obscures her vision and now can hear only heavy footsteps approaching. On the wall The Shaman and the natives go silent and in awe as their island god Kong, revealed to be a giant 30-foot gorilla emerges from the jungle. Ann trembles with terror as the giant primate stands before her. Kong rose on his hind legs and beets his chest before letting out a mighty roar echoing the grotto causing Ann to scream! He examines Ann by gently touches her face and hair with his finger before freeing and lifting her in his right hand. Jack and Rayna leads the crew into the village, scaring the natives with shooting flares. Kong hears the gunfire and lets out another loud roar and Ann lets out another scream that echoes everywhere. Jack realizes she's behind the wall and starts climbing to the top with Rayna following her. Carl and Niles caught only a glimpse of Kong on the other side through the gates. Ann's fear overcame her and faints in Kong's hand who carries her away but pauses. Kong turns around and glares back at the two men then disappears into the jungle away from the wall. Jack and Rayna raced to the top of the wall only to see that Ann was already gone.

The crew organizes a search party to rescue Ann Darrow. Led by Jack, Hayes and Rayna, the party consists of O'Neil, Jean-Pierre, Shepard, Rigby, Niles, Snyder, Richter, James, Briggs and 35 other sailors while Englehorn himself, Lumpy, Kafi and the rest of the crew remain at the village. Archimedes decides to volunteer to accompany in the search along with his students while Carl brings his crew and film equipment bring the film stock. Faraji comes out of hiding to aid the crew as their guide. Theo insists of join the search but Englehorn wouldn't allow it, telling him it's too dangerous then turns to Jack, promising him that they'll put a guard on the gate until he and the others return and then gives the party enough food, ammunition and supplies for the journey and will provide more from his sea plane seaplane. The party then begun their perilous journey into jungles of the island.

As they march their way through the jungle, they hear noises in the brush then were attacked a Ceratosaurus only to be shot down by Niles, killing the dinosaur. then decide to rest for the night underneath a dead tree stump.
