The Last Voyage Of The Demeter. 2023.

A ship bound to London from Bulgaria with boxes of dirt and a small crew encounter something evil and sinister on board the 4 week jorney.

Taken from Dracula's novel charting the Captain's Log and why the boat arrived derelict and empty, most Dracula movies have never really shown the voyage except the 1992 version that has a small scene with Anthony Hopkins doing the voice over as Captain Eliot.

Liam Cunningham plays the old sea ferryman and planning on his retirement and hopefully of a peaceful journey but we know that will never happen. Completley set in, around and under the ship certainly draws in the no place is safe scenario. Javier Botet plays the Count and the makers look like they have used a darker tone of make up and re-created the same Max Schrek Nosferatu appearance, very nice homage. This was actually a decent entry into the Dracula tale and certainly best watched in the dark due to the tone of the film.
