In chapter seven of Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 novel, Dracula, the Irish author details a captain’s log of the dark presence that stalked the crew of the merchant ship Demeter. Inspired to capture the chilling horrors of this famous chapter, screenwriter Bragi F. Schut began working on the story more than two decades ago. Finally, after being stuck in development hell, André Øvredal was announced as director in 2019. His take on this suspenseful chapter is hampered by a lackluster script and an overly long runtime that focuses on the wrong characters. The Last Voyage of the Demeter showed promise early on, but failed to capitalize on the inherent horrors of its story.
