Never had such an opportunity for exploration and discovery arisen since Europe discovered the New World. Upon Skull Island's unveiling, universities and private organizations scrambled to dispatch exploration teams while battling with one another for exclusivity and justification rights, as each wanted to be the first on the island. Of the 12 expeditions made to Skull Island, only a handful managed to make landfall, and of those, six were woefully unprepared for the horrors that awaited them.
