The Sinkhole

**The island** is a location in The Expedition. It is the main setting for the entirety of the film. There are several locations spread across the island that the characters visit, most notably being the Inner Island.

## Locations

There are several notable locations across the island that are visited by the characters.

* The Campsite- The location where Mike and his team set up their camp and store their vehicles. It is partially destroyed after The Omega's ambush.
* The Crater- The first location Mike and his team go to. It is a small piece of land by the water with a small crater formed caused by The Omega's crash landing.
* Inner Island- The Inner Island is the main and biggest part of the island. It is a dense jungle that surrounds a lot of other smaller locations.
* The River- The river is a body of water that Mike and his team travel on via motorboat in order to find an escape route. The biggest part of the river is seen in only one scene while a smaller part is seen in the Inner Island.
* The Grand Field- This location is a gargantuan field with a ton of open space. Doug and Rufus chase the Night Slasher through here.
* The Sinkhole- This location is a weird horizontal hole that The Omega emerges from. It houses graffiti art which is an external representation of The Omega's memories.
* The Trench- This location is a narrow and deep excavation in the ground that everyone on the expedition team except Mike fall into. There is a short trail next to it that leads to the upper part of the Inner Island.
* The Cave- This location is a cave that is on the outskirts of the island and is semi-connected to it. This is the final location in the film.

## Geography

The island is located in the Atlantic Ocean, in the area of Puerto Rico. Whether because of influence of The Omega or because it is extremely below sea level, the island rises and sinks every 560 years. 60% of the island is jungle, surrounded by trees with a crater made from The Omega's crash landing. There is a large river that empties out into the ocean. A narrow part of the river runs through the Inner Island. Deep in the jungle, a horizontal sinkhole was created by The Omega as a place of residence and slumber. The campsite of the expedition team is all grass and on a large hill. The Grand Field is a giant field that stretches for miles. It is possible the campsite is part of the grand field, due to its similar terrain. There is also a trench in the Inner Island and a semi-connected cave near the beach. Overall, the island flourishes with foliage and vegetation, with some rocky terrain. Most of the island is covered in grass and mud, and the large river helps the plants grow.

## Trivia

* The Inner Island was filmed in a creek behind BogleBlocks Pictures' house along with other locations close to it. The large river scene was filmed in a seperate creek.
	+ In addition, the campsite scenes were filmed in BogleBlocks Pictures' backyard. He had to angle the camera in a way so it wouldn't capture his fence, garden, and machinery.
* It is very likely the trench was caused by so much erosion during the island's time underwater.
