King Kong

A movie producer named Carl Denham needs to make a good movie for once. He plans on going on an island with a ship, a crew, and Writer, Jack Driscoll. He needs to find a lady for the film. That's when he finds Ann Darrow. As they are sailing, they find out that Carl is taking them to skull island, a lost island in the pacific. When they disembark onto the beach, they are already confronted by the native islanders, dinosaurs, giant insects, and a gigantic ape called, "King Kong." They need to survive and get back to the ship. Kong falls in love with Ann when the natives offer her as a sacrifice to him. Their relationship builds and Ann starts to like Kong back. Kong is put to sleep and captured and brought to New York. He is shown on nights on broadway and the crew becomes wealthy including Carl.

Continuity mistake: When Ann meets Kong on NYC street, the camera flashes back and forth between them. When it shows Kong, he is surrounded by snow, but when it shows Ann, the street doesn't have so much as a snowflake.

Question: What happens to the Natives? After the first contact with Denham & Co and the sacrifice of Ann they make no further contact with the group, even when the group are inside their village at various points after this.

Answer: They scared them off with their guns. In the scene where they capture Ann to sacrifice her to Kong, Denham and his men come to rescue her and when they start shooting the natives hide. It's never fully explained but the most likely answer is that they are too scared and have even moved villages or are just hiding really well.
