## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Fog clings to the rotting docks of New York harbor, 1933.  
A rain-slicked map unfurls, marked with a skull-shaped isle; Denham’s boot crushes a phosphorescent jellyfish on the deck.  
Less spectacle, more fever dream—Schoedsack serving the id of the original’s subconscious.

**Mood tags**: 3am-cult
