(Ein Heldenkongen - Kong: Skull Island Complete Score)

https://youtu.be/3OalCc9VTaA

Nakano: Skull Island, home to many inhabitants that are unique and bizarre. So much so that a human clan called the Iwi tribes worship a giant monkey named Kong who acts as a guardian for both the island and the people that reside there.

Vanessa: I would say that'd be a great place to go on vacation..... if it wasn't for the fact that Skull Island is also inhabited by vicious predators that can kill you in over a hundred ways! Like the Sirenjaws, Death Jackals, Psychovultures, Mother Longlegs, Spirit Tigers and even the Titan Camazotz. But none are as famous as the Cranium Reptant, aka Skullcrawlers!

Sara: Skullcrawlers once ruled over Skull Island, forcing lesser species like the Iwi tribe to hide in fear until Kong's species arrived and began thinning their numbers. Eventually the Skullcrawlers were forced to retreat underground, but not before decimating nearly all of the giant apes in return, leaving only Kong himself, who witnessed his parents' death at their hands, as the sole survivor.

Nakano: Years later however, in 1973, an expedition by Monarch sees the Skullcrawlers surfacing once more after they brough seismic charges that woke them up. And when Packard and his men ambushed Kong in the swamp, a big Alpha Skullcrawler emerged from the waters. Commonly referred to as the Big One or the Skull Devil, but she's also dubbed Ramarak.

Vanessa: Yes, Ramarak is a female.

Ramarak

Intelligence

Prehensile tail

Prehensile tongue

High pain tolerance

Resistance to heat and lava

Sharp teeth

Maneuverability

Vocal mimicry

Superhuman speed and agility

Able to jump at great heights

Able to swim via hidden gills

Sara: Ramarak is easily one of the biggest Skullcrawlers to ever exist, surpassed only by Number 10 in Godzilla vs Kong. Standing over 95 feet tall, over 194 feet long and over 100 tons. She's got backwards facing teeth meaning any victim that tried to escape will be punctured in the process.

Vanessa: Ramarak possesses strength that rivalled that of an adolescent Kong, able to stretch her tongue to grab foes or use her tail as bludgeoning weapon. And for something that big and heavy, she's terrifyingly fast, able to move in huge strides.

Nakano: Not only that, but adult Skullcrawlers like Ramarak also gain intelligence as they get older. And they have immense pain tolerance and durability to match given they live on one of the harshest environments where just about everything is out to kill you.

Feats

Defeated Kong and would've killed him had the humans not intervened

Able to throw Kong around (He was 158 tons during Kong: Skull Island)

Skullcrawlers can step foot in lava

Fast enough to keep up with Kong

Is stated to be responsible for the death of Kong's parents (Kong: Skull Island)

Able to keep fighting even after having her throat slit

Unfazed by a M2HB heavy machine gun, which chambers .50 BMG calibers

Saw through Cole's suicide attack and smacked him away

Sara: Ramarak is undoubtedly the toughest foes Kong had to face in his earlier life. She's able to take a beating from Kong and even throw the giant ape around and this guy weighs 158 tons at the time, 58 more than Ramarak herself.

Vanessa: Skullcrawlers are shown to be able to step foot in lava and like the juveniles, Ramarak has an insane durability, if not even greater. Kong struck her face with a boulder, stabbed her shoulder with a boat propeller and then proceeded to slit her throat with said propeller, yet Ramarak still kept fighting.

Nakano: She even saw through Cole's attempt to kill her with two grenades by trying to make her eat him and simply sends him flying with her tail, causing the grenades to explode without taking her out.

Weaknesses

Ultimately killed by Kong after pulling her tongue out, which is connected to her organs, killing her instantly

Blinded in one eye after Mason Weaver shot her with a flare gun

In a constant state of hunger thanks to the Skullcrawlers' very high metabolism

Having only two limbs to walk on, their stance is rather unstable and can easily be toppled

Nakano: But even Ramarak isn't unstoppable. Due to their high metabolism, Skullcrawlers are in always hungry and will do anything to eat, and Ramarak is no different. Kong used this against Ramarak when she tried to devour Mason and refused to let go of Kong's arm, resulting on Kong pulling her tongue and organs out, causing her demise.

Sara: And because of their limbs, Skullcrawlers can be easily toppled due to their body structure. They also lack armor to protect their most vulnerable areas and their eyes can be easy to hit.

Vanessa: But don't think Ramarak is an easy foe to defeat. If Kong had trouble and was nearly killed, you can be sure you had no chance against the Skull Devil of Skull Island.

Ramarak pounces on a wounded Kong and successfully pins down by slamming her clawed foot into Kong's face and roaring. She then looks at Mason Weaver who recorded the whole thing in a camera before James Conrad who grabs her and rushes into the forest

Conrad: Kong's down, let's go!
