** Ann herself doesn't have it any better. She ends up at risk of getting killed and eaten by a ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', an [[SeaMonster elasmosaurus]], and a [[PteroSoarer pteranodon]] in relatively short order, and is completely helpless to defend herself against them. And if Kong had either not been present, or had lost his fights against them, either one of them could (and very likely ''would'') have eaten her!

* The [[FridgeHorror implication]] that the natives have been giving their ''own'' women to Kong for many years... and Kong either killed them or just ignored them to wander around and die alone on Kong's side of the island.

** The Apatosaurus featured ''thoroughly'' averts the GentleGiantSauropod trope by proving shockingly aggressive against Carl, Jack, and the other sailors present when it catches them in the swamp that is presumably its territory. Acting not entirely too different from an [[CruelElephant elephant]] or hippo, it goes so far as to brutally attack the sailors in the water after capsizing their raft and leaving them forced to swim away without any chance of reclaiming their weapons, grabbing them by the shirts with its mouth and tossing them around like ragdolls (and in one notable instance, even lifting one of them up and down into and out of the water repeatedly as if trying to drown him) before then following the ones that escape to land and chasing them from just to ensure they actually leave. And despite supplementary sources and eagle eyed viewers later making it clear that all it did was kill them and leave the bodies, the images on screen make it easy for the common misconception that it [[AscendedToCarnivorism ATE the sailors it killed]]!

* A scene of crewmen being eaten by giant spiders (also lizards, crabs and ''something'' that looked like an octopus) was considered too scary (the producers insisted the scene was cut for pacing and production concerns); the 2005 version reinstated the idea, and director Creator/PeterJackson also produced a {{Retraux}} re-creation of the scene for the 1933 film's DVD release, depicting how it might have looked had it been made as written. Andy Serkis himself described the monsters in the 2005 version as "Freudian penis monsters."

* Many of the screams of the sailors killed in the rescue attempt are genuinely chilling.
** The log scene in particular is horrifying, unlike most versions they actually ''show'' the poor men smacking the ground like gruesome ragdolls.

* It has a special ability to frighten New Zealand viewers, knowing that some of the insects are actually GIANT WETAS, bloody ugly insects native to their fair land. And while they normally live in forests, they can turn up anywhere, and they're big enough as it is, so the concept of wetas the size of a dog would freak any [=NZer=] out...
* Their NAME (Wetapunga) means 'God of Ugly Things' in Maori. Worse, the leech-like things are real, too... they're bloodworms, a carnivorous worm with protruding... er... lips.
