Revision as of 18:22, 20 December 2005
The S.S. Venture was the ship that took Ann Darrow and Carl Denham and his film crew to Skull Island in most versions of the King Kong storyline.
King Kong (1933) & The Son of Kong
The Venture was crewed by Captain Englehorn and Jack Driscoll. Following the capture of King Kong by Denham, it was used to transport the huge gorilla back to New York.
The Venture would later take Denham and Englehorn back to Skull Island to look for its lost treasure along with Hilda Peterson, but Lars Helstrom incited a mutiny among its crew by telling them what had happened to the previous crew (they had all been eaten by dinosaurs). After throwing Denham, Hilda, Englehorn, Charlie the cook and even Helstrom overboard, the Venture became the property of Red and his fellow mutineers.
King Kong (Comics & 2005 film)
Mostly the same as the original film, except that the Jack Driscoll character is a playwright and not the Venture's first mate, and there is no mutiny since these versions of the story do not contain the Son of Kong story arc.
