In the jungles of the Congo River in Africa, the grandson of Dr. Frankenstein creates a giant gray-skinned, hairless, and humanoid-shaped monster made of various African megafauna such as elephants and crocodiles. At the same time, King Kong is revealed to have somehow survived his fall from the Empire State Building and secretly spirited back to Skull Island by an elderly Carl Denham. Originally meant to be a servant, Dr. Frankenstein is encouraged by a visiting Denham to promote his creation and the two combine their respective monsters into a large show together. The doctor assumes his creation, Prometheus, is docile thanks to a control device; however, Prometheus turns on his creator and kills him upon the show being brought to San Francisco. With Prometheus on a rampage, King Kong is turned loose to fend him off. The two creatures do battle across the city, where they both eventually fall off the top of the Golden Gate Bridge and into San Francisco Bay while still fighting each other, with neither one of them emerging from the water. Both of them are then believed to have died.[5]
