Peter Jackson’s vision of skull island might be the most accurate depiction of an island lost in time. Maybe somewhere still undiscovered there is one lost in time.

The insect pit is almost like a massive digestive system with creepy creatures to break things down

I hated the pit scene. Never did like bugs with VERY few exceptions though. However, with Carnictus, that thing is nightmare inducing.

In my opinion, Peter Jackson’s iteration of Skull Island in his 2005 Remake of King Kong is undoubtedly the most dangerous to date. Everything about that version of the island is hell personified, the inhabitants are straight out monsters that would devour anything they see. Utterly brutal and relentless as shown by the Vastatosaurus Rex. The infamous insect pit is something you’d see if you were to in vision what the bottom of a dark abyss would look like, absolutely nightmare fuel that would traumatized the shit out of you.

“They followin me, ma!” “Who?? Who following you?” “THE BUGS”

The Pit scene in Peter Jackson’s King Kong is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in cinema.

The amount of time and effort Peter Jackson and the crew took to create these animals and environment for Skull Island is just amazing. Honestly I would watch a Attenborough like documentary about the daily life of them.

Mate, the fact that you started off with the Carnictis Meat Weasel (the one that scared me the most as a kid) is crazy. Quit reading my damn mind! I was talking about it right before you 🤣 I'm astonished with how in-depth you went into everything and I absolutely love this video. You've done an awesome job 👏😄

The scene with the bugs traumatized me as a young kid. I remember I couldn't eat for weeks. Especially the worms haunted me for years after I first watched the film. Now that I am 22 and have revisited the film, its not so bad as I remembered it, but still creepy.

The Pit. Because even on Skull Island, there has to be one place everyone takes one look at and says, "Fuck That."

It’s a crime you aren’t as popular as casual geographic.

I forgot his name but when I watched skull island a while ago when one of the guys was being eaten from the head by the carnictis gave me shivers, imagine just being ambushed by a bunch of massive bugs ready to tear you apart… Keep up the great Content!

There was also a lost bug pit scene that in the original king kong in 1933 which peter jackson added into his 2005 remake of king kong and recreated the lost scene with the same stop motion 🦍

That spider jumpscare scared the hell out of me

this is a perfect time to talk about the horror monsters of skull island 💀 I love it and happy Halloween 🎃

Here come da BUGS!

The amazing, terrifying, and surprisingly very scientifically accurate fauna of Peter Jacksons King Kong is very underrated, even among the dinosaur and and movie monster community. I mean seriously, why isn't this Skull island as popular as something like Jurassic Park. I love those movies but come on, Skull Island has dinos AND prehistoric bugs and creatures. We need more content related to this.

24:36 I think the largest spider you showed here is the same as the one from Kong: Skull Island where the leftover army team went through a bamboo forest but as they look up they see the bodies of the spiders and one member of their team gets impaled by the legs of one of it and they somehow shoot some sort of web/sticky substance that basically is a claw machine and drag them up to their main body to eat the prey safely

Bro, why did you have to get me with that jumpscare at 21:16

DINO FAX WHY YOU GOTTA JUMPSCARE ME LIKE THAT BRO! 😂😂😂

Your speaking voice is very clear and the video is very in depth both in terms of the lore of skull island and the real world counterparts. I like your channel a lot, keep it up.

I love how this video is basically saying “Yeah you know the 25 foot tall Gorilla? He’s the least nightmare inducing animal on the island”.

The Group of People in the Abyss was the most Terrify part in the movie for me, just Imagine your one of those people love the Channel dinofax keep it up, can't wait to see 1mil subs💯🤝🗿

Always loved this scene Such cool creature designs The idea of a dark canyon biome of anthropod horrors is so cool to me

To this day, this version of Skull Island remains the most frightening to me, especially after having played the survival horror-esque game for the Xbox 360. I recommend it to anyone that hasn't played it, a short but solid game.

"Nuke em!: "No!" "Aw come on!" "You're fired."

I don't think a bug horror scene has ever troubled me as much as that pit in Peter Jackson's King Kong. And that's good, it means it did its job well. But oh my god is that an uncomfortable as hell scene. Just imagine if bugs were that big IRL.

I still have the Andy Serkis death scene nightmares.

Watching this at 1am some good dreams tonight

Man, imagine if the Skull Islands from Peter Jackson, and the Monsterverse combined! *shutters* That would be terrifying… But, cool at the same time! Hey, do you think you could do a biology of The Monsterverse Skull Island creatures?

Best Skull Island EVER! God I wish it was real, love those dinosaurs.... but also fun fact the Skull Crawler was in the original 1933 movie Spider Pit scene you see a two legged lizard crawling the walls of the Spider Pit. Also what a perfect place to sentence our most condemned criminals to be Bug food :)

This video was so good. It both disgusts me and keeps me watching with avid interest. Great job!

Two words. NIGHTMARE FUEEELLLL!!

Sees first half of the title Me: YES! IT'S FINALLY HERE! Sees the second half Me: ... "And Here We Go" - Joker

I hate you bro that spider jumpscare really got me 😂😂 awesome video though 👍🏻👍🏻

One of my fav scenes in cinema history. ❤

We leaving the island with this one, boys

If I said it before I'll say it again..Skull Island is Death Island! Now thanks to the Netflix series, even the oceans and beaches aren't safe!!!😅

Even if you nuked the bug pit it wouldn’t do the trick because of the caverns and the resilience of bugs in general. Only the ones that got blasted directly would be gone but there will be enough in the crevices that will survive.

Its weird bc i have arachnophobia but i LOVE this lore. However the footage of the actual spider you showed scared the sin out of me

Those millipedes were nightmarish in the King Kong video game. 😩

This movie was very good growing up and i love to watch it again and again. you are a amazing youtuber and i wish you could tell my friends facts they dont know. keep up the amazing work

I really want tk thank you. I truly enjoy how you approach fantasy species. You use technical language but the videos remain understandable for normie.

Worst part of the movie for ME was the WORMS with their gross elongating mouth-bits.. and that poor dude getting eaten alive- skull island is a brutal, horrific place

Ah yes skull island, home to true wetapunga.

Would have loved to see the scorpiopede from the deleted piranhadon scene. But still, quite an enjoyable video!

I remember going to the theaters to watch this with my dad and that night I couldn't sleep at all because I was scared one the bugs would eat me lol. I was 8

God, damn that was a crazy episode

The tarantula jump scare made me scream

Hey man, been following for a while fell, in love with your dinosaur videos, stayed for the dinosaurs. But seriously you reawakened my love for dinosaurs and it kills me that there isn't a horror game with Dino's in it

I remember being 10 and going to the movies with my mother, I was so eager cause I was, and still am, a huge prehistoric life and monster fan. Already played the game, exited to see my fav creatures. Gladly, the pit wasnt in the game, or not as far in as I was. Cried like hell during that scene because the cook was my fav character and damn that scene was going on way too long. Also bawled my eyes out at the end but got comforted by 2 older teengirls, which were equally crying.

21:27 That wicked weaver catched that feather devil, maybe an artist made that master

I love insects, arachnids and arthropods in general. Last week I ran into a small yellow and black version of the wicked weaver in a forest trail here in Brazil 😍

Time to not be able to sleep tonight

Super brutal and savage creatures :))

But they're all no match for Jack Black's kung-fu skills

The bug army is coming🦂🕷️🕸️🐜🦗🪳🪳🪲🪰🐞🐛🦖🦕🦍

I use this video to not be as scared of our true insects and spooders, yes we have these guys or at least versions of them but they’re much much smaller and more scared of you than you are of them, so thank you for the other side of the coin which is helping people not be scared ❤ although centipedes and millipedes aren’t as scary to me as a massive toothy worm or Shelob incarnates

What a great time to be talking about king kong

dang this was an amazing vedeo, this makes me wanna watch king kong 2005 again :'D

Can't wait for the birds and reptiles of skull island.

We need a BIG can of raid for this!

I would love to see a nature documentary focused on Peter Jackson's depiction of Skull Island, Kong and all the creatures look like they could exist in the real world.

How do they give them cool names? I want to make some evolved dinosaurs, but I can't think of anything

You know the more recent monster in skull Islands remake sure are scary because they eat anything whole. However, the creatures in the Peter Jackson Skull Island will always hold special place in my memories as the coolest and personally scariest monsters.

So this is like the rotten vale from monster hunter world but with giant insects instead?

That spider jumpscare sent my soul out of my body bro 😭😭

the wasp reminds me of vespoid queen from monster hunter freedom

I remember seeing a page of this book way back and I was captivated but unfortunately I didn't find it for years but it was always in the back on my mind until an individual posted a pdf on fb(now deleted) My childhood came rushing back

As a certified arachnophobe I can safely say that THIS: (21:10 - 21:16) WAS DONE ON PURPOUSE!! 😂😂 PS: Jokes on you though, I may be scared of spiders, but I fuckin love 'em for how creepy they can actually get, The huntsman spider being my personal favourite ^3^ Edit: Another spider i like is the St andrew's cross spider, Just so everyone knows ^^

Hell yeah 👍 I love this movie and the monsters this version of the king Kong universe is too underrated it's awesome I love it

"This place is.... a nightmare...." - Jimmy

Look less as flatworms and think more like Bobbitt worms. A possible cross breed between Bobbitt worm and a similar land type worm. Or a highly evolved type of Bobbitt worms? Carnictis just shares so many traits with the Bobbitt worms, except Bobbitt worms live in the ocean. Both of them them live near thermal volcanic vents

That spider jump scare got me so fucking bad lol

Now that I think of it. Watching this movie when I was a young kid. No wonder I hate bugs.

About the deplectors, just a thought but id like to think it had a type of silk that could harden over time to the point its like a anchor, when it need to move, it would release more silk but because its new silk it would be softer and able to be detached like normal silk

Australia but beefed up bro 💀💀

Wow

21:17 you fucker, i knew it was coming and it still got me

21:16 uncalled for.

One of the few times we see Andy Serkis not in a motion capture suit and he dies... 😢 THANKS PETER JACKSON!!! >

Geez! No wonder Kong stayed so high up in the mountains.

Music makes it more creepier

For me I do like big giant bug/spider creatures and movies 😊

Can you make a short or video on Pickle from Baki?

Will you be doing a video like this for other universes? I kinda wish we got a lot more of the creatures in the film but less is more and it allows our imaginations to run wild. I do wonder since t.rex existed and I'm pretty sure there was stegos or a type on the island if there were other large carnivores on the island or even in the waters around it. Things related to allosaurus and carno possibly despite not being from the same time periods. Maybe like great descendants of them since we have to assume at some point they existed before the t.rex who became v.rex Nash them wasps alone would have me burning the forest down 🤣

i absolutly hate bugs and especially spiders but this stuff really interest me and i cant stop watching

Every aspect of Carcnictus is much more like an annelid such as a leech or bloodworm, rather than a platyhelminth like a tapeworm.

Can you do all creatures of Primeval?

Hey, what's the music that plays during the Deplecter segment?

Peter Jackson’s skull island is the most badass version with the coolest animals

21:12 that got me good

If anyone would ask me which would I either live in a nuclear fallout or on Skull Island, I'd rather be in the bottom of the food chain with these dangerous prehistoric animals than get irradiated.

The ships crew were a huge W when they saved everyone from the pit

You should do a video on the Triassic period and about it's animals

Carbonifores period in steroids

Those damn crickets crawling all over you creeped me out

This is a good video. How much insectide would you need to get rid of all the insects in all the pits of skull island? Would insectide be most effective or would incendiary weapons work better?

An island where spiders eat dinosaurs.

I may fear bugs, but I still wanna learn about life that does not exist! (On earth anyway) so I’m gonna watch, cause I’m determined. Also, I want my mooooooomy!!!!
