The Last Voyage of the Demeter | Official Trailer

The legend of Dracula is born. The Last Voyage of the Demeter only in theaters August 11th.
---
Based on a single chilling chapter from Bram Stoker’s classic novel Dracula, The Last Voyage of the Demeter tells the terrifying story of the merchant ship Demeter, which was chartered to carry private cargo-fifty unmarked wooden crates-from Carpathia to London.
Strange events befall the doomed crew as they attempt to survive the ocean voyage, stalked each night by a merciless presence onboard the ship. When the Demeter finally arrives off the shores of England, it is a charred, derelict wreck. There is no trace of the crew.
The film stars Corey Hawkins (In the Heights, Straight Outta Compton) as Clemens, a doctor who joins the Demeter crew, Aisling Franciosi (Game of Thrones, The Nightingale) as an unwitting stowaway, Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones, Clash of the Titans) as the ship’s captain and David Dastmalchian (Dune, the Ant-Man franchise) as the Demeter’s first mate.
The film also features Jon Jon Briones (Ratched, American Horror Story), Stefan Kapicic (Deadpool films, Better Call Saul), Nikolai Nikolaeff (Stranger Things, Bruised) and Javier Botet (It films, Mama).
From DreamWorks Pictures and the producers of Zodiac and Black Swan, The Last Voyage of the Demeter is directed by Norwegian horror virtuoso André Øvredal (Scary Stories To Tell in the Dark, Trollhunter), from a script by Bragi F. Schut (Escape Room), Stefan Ruzowitzky (The Counterfeiters) and Zak Olkewicz (the upcoming Bullet Train), based on the chapter “The Captain’s Log” of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
The film is produced by Brad Fischer and by Oscar®-nominated producer Mike Medavoy and Arnold Messer for Phoenix Pictures and is executive produced by Matthew Hirsch.

[@xDiscipleOfTheWatchx]

Everyone in the olden days was a black gay trans millionaire genius with 5 phds and a white girlfriend.

[@rachel5399]

It's a movie based off of Dracula, ya know, a vampire.

[@xDiscipleOfTheWatchx]

@@rachel5399 But in a historical setting. So not pure fantasy.
There was a black man who graduated from Oxford in 1876, with a 4th class classics degree...The point is that films inject modern identity politics into historical narratives, and in doing so break our suspension of disbelief.
I'll give you a hypothetical example:
Let's say I have a white supremacist worldview (I don't, but for the sake of argument...) And I want to make a film about slavery in the 19th Century American South. Maybe it's got vampires in it too, doesn't matter. Ok, let's say I make all the slave owners black. And if you complain that it doesn't seem historically accurate, I say yeah but there were some examples of African Americans owning black slaves (which is true), and it has vampires in it so it doesn't have to be accurate, you can tell I've injected my political ideology into the story, and it would be quite distasteful right?
I already have to suspend my disbelief when it comes to the vampire, I want the setting to be as grounded as possible. No Smashing Pumpkins songs, no feminism or identity politics, no modern dialogue etc.

What does that have to do with a black guy from Oxford?

[@gendoikari1143]

@@rachel5399 and it is still rooted in specific times and places. At least is should be to be interesting and have that specific feeling. And I can't stand any history rape in that kind of movie. For me nów this movie is just great dissapointment.

[@mr.graves2867]

Spoiler alert ⚠️
Everyone dies....Everyone....

[@andrewcoburn6519]

There was the one dude who was badass enough to tie himself to the wheel before he died. Really hoping that makes its way into the movie

[@mr.graves2867]

@andrewcoburn6519 that was the captain I think 🤔

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

Black doctor from Cambridge in the 19th century????

[@Ndres1692]

This looks so cheap for Amblin production. Not exactly Spielberg eh?
