The Last Voyage of the Demeter Storyline

Based on a single chapter, the Captain’s Log, from Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 novel “Dracula”, the story is set aboard the Russian schooner Demeter, which was chartered to carry private cargo – 24 unmarked wooden crates – from Carpathia to London. The film will detail the strange events that befell the doomed crew as they attempt to survive the ocean voyage, stalked each night by a terrifying presence on board the ship. When it finally arrived near Whitby Harbour, it was derelict. There was no trace of the crew.

The Last Voyage of the Demeter Movie Reviews

The most incompetent crew of sailors ever.

All of the livestock are killed, time to make port so you can restock your food, right? Nope, just keep going, cuz you need that bonus check.

A stow away tells you there is a demon on board, and 2 of the crew members see it with their own eyes. Time to make a pit stop at any of the number of ports in the Mediterranean, right? Nope, just keep going, cuz you need that bonus check.

2 crew members are murdered, and one is barely alive with bite marks on all their necks. Time to haul ass to the closest port along the coast of Europe, right? Nope, just keep going, cuz you need those bonus checks.

Now the captain writes in his journal that “We can’t turn back now, England is the closest port”. To which I would say, have you ever looked at a map of Europe? They sailed through the entire Mediterranean, through the Strait of Gibraltar where you could literally spit and hit land, and even after that, England is NEVER the closest port until you actually arrive there. Spain, Portugal, France….they are all closer.

These are the most incompetent sailors in the history of the world, and deserved to all have their blood sucked dry.

The underrated horror director Ovredal proves that fresh takes on classic tales are possible.

This year has been up and down for the horror genre with some hits and some misses. We’ve been bombarded with cliches and regurgitated subject matter. This movie had barely any marketing until a couple weeks ago it seemed. While this is a film revolving around a version of Dracula which is also a familiar story, it’s executed in a unique enough way it thrives at times and may be the most authentic horror film of the year.

Ovredal has been bringing the visceral visuals for almost 15 years at this point and is clearly only rising . He has a very keen eye for the grim and brutal and this film has that in bunches. Another Dracula story in this day and age has to stand out and how he utilized the fantastic setting of being at sea on a ship in the 19th century based on a chapter of a Bram Stoker’s original tale is absolutely awesome. The design of Dracula itself is probably my favorite part of the whole offering. The look is filthy and depraved, and the cgi and practical work is top notch. This I feel has been missing in the genre of late. There’s nothing wrong with a good classic monster movie. The acting is also a standout with some familiar faces that truly capture the timeframe as well as the intensity.

Overall this was a very welcome surprise and a needed entry to this year’s inconsistent slate of horror. I can’t wait to see this director keep getting larger budgets as he must love what he does and it’s evident. It may not get the attention it deserves at first but it will surely be talked about by horror aficionados.

A unique addition to the Dracula universe that’s missing something but still worth a viewing

Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) is a movie that my wife and I saw in theaters this evening. The storyline follows the infamous voyage of the Demeter from Romania to London with a mysterious cargo. As strange things start happening around the ship the crew starts poking around the cargo and find a “stowaway” that warns them about an unworldly entity they must escape. Will the crew take the warning seriously or fall victim to whatever is haunting the ship?

This movie is directed by André Øvredal (Troll Hunter) and stars Corey Hawkins (Straight Outta Compton), Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones), David Dastmalchian (The Suicide Squad), Aisling Franciosi (Game of Thrones) and Jon Jon Briones (Ratched).

This storyline, settings and special effects had so much potential. The plot is well set up, the attire and props are perfect, and the cast was well selected. The CGI used to create Dracula and his face were outstanding. There’s some really creepy moments in here and some worthwhile jump scares. The kill scenes were intense, brutal and have nice gore and blood splatter. The transformation scenes are good too. However, the movie does run a bit long, I didn’t “love” the ending and the entire film I felt like there was something missing and I couldn’t quite put my finger on it.

Overall, this is a unique and solid addition to the Dracula universe but leaves you with a feeling it was missing something that keep it from being outstanding. I would score this a 6-6.5/10 and recommend seeing it once.
