Not sure if youve read the book, but i was hyped they were making a movie about the Demeter. When trying to get my friends to read it(it reads really modern and every single character is a gigachad, highly reccomend) id always have them read or listen (audiobook) to the excerpt of the news story about the demeter. It is sooo good and captures the vibe of the story.
I'll be honest, I'm still pissed that they didn't make a sequel to Dracula Untold and now you're telling me they cut the best part out at the end all over again.
You get used to it after a while.

SpongeBob, Squidward, & Hashslinging Slasher: “Nooooosferatuuu”
🧛🏻😅
That ending sounds dope. Really hope they push through for a follow-up
the grandson played by woody norman was my favorite character (:
I wish this was the version of the film where Viggo Mortensen was going to play both the captain and Dracula. (2008-12)
btw this movie has been in production hell since 2002.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it already or not, I wouldn't be surprised if someone has, but I'd say they could explain Dracula being in a nosferatu form because he's out at sea. Lot of vampire lore is that they can't cross moving or open water, so maybe he's just stuck like that until he reaches land again?
The truth is that Dracula can change its form into a giant bat, giant wolf monster, a normal wolf/dog and rats. Plus at this point in the book, he's still a grumpy old man. The reason he doesn't take a human form is because he doesn't see the need to infiltrate the social life of the ship. He just sees the crew and Ana as food to sustain himself until he reaches London. So why should he turn into "grandpa Vlad" and hold conversations with them? The staff decided on portraying Dracula as this bat monster (similar to the 2004 Van Helsing movie) probably because they thought this was a fitting and still somewhat fresh idea. Imo it works pretty well. Throughout the movie Dracula shows enough intelligence and a very sadistic, mean-spirited personality.
I thought the film was exactly how it needed to be as it was only a short chapter in the book...the End of the film (the very last scenes on the water) is where the film should have ended, and it would have been perfect for the Book. The way they did it though seems to be for a sequel with a huge divergence from the source material... making the whole thing more interesting, and not a bad thing. Thoroughly enjoyed the film. Oh and it finally showed Dracula as the monster the novel portrayed... Something to think about.
I think they did it pretty well and left it open. Even if the movie gets a sequel (what I doubt), there's no reason to think that Clemens will play a big role. He might fall victim to Dracula as soon as he reaches Carfex Abbey. Heck they could pull a Halloween Resurrection with Clemens (like Resurrection did with Laurie Strode) and kill him off in the start of the movie or offscreen and make it so his infos/notes somehow make their way to Van Helsing. Who knows?
Indeed. But if they would had ended the film at Clemens in the water...and maybe just showed Dracula in the tavern leaving it, the film would not interfere with the novel at all, while still leaving room for a possible sequel.@@justasoulsfan9805
Gotta give credit where it's due; this was at least a sort of interesting idea for how to wring another movie out of source material that's been done to death already.
Indeed.
There was a short British tv series on Dracula (2020 BBC one) were one episode was about the voyage. It was pretty good. I wonder how this one compares.
This is the best GOW streaming channel
I appreciate your analysis of this Ryan. I was ambivalent about it; however, I will definitely get around to watching eventually.
What happened to Dracula manga inspired from the novel which you used to review on the channel? Did you just drop the series 😅
Not intentionally but I missed some chapters in a row and then haven’t gotten back to it yet 😩
Is pretty wack and i love it for that, even more so than inocent the author's previous work
Didn't even know they were making this movie, kinda sounded interesting by your review, an shame that it tanked so hard on the box office this weekend
Yeah, they should’ve at least put it out closer to Halloween to try and make a few more dollars
Hello Ryan, have you seen 28 Days Later. And if so what did you think about it?
Still need to see this and talk to me
Ngl, I ain't watching the movie but W ryan
They dont know about sunlight? Well they should. They witness two off Draculas victims die because of sunlight. That should be a clear message that maybe sunlight should kill or atleast weaken this thing. The movie was ok but theres no reason why they dont try to kill Dracula during the day, other than the plot says so.
good review (:
Strange, I would’ve thought this movie would’ve been called “last voyage of defeet” in the US
Last voyage of deinch
I was curious how this movie turned out
Hey Ryan Ik this is off topic but I’m about to buy some Berserk Volumes, what order should I read in?
There’s only one order, start at Vol 1 lol
@@RealLifeRyan alright well do
real life can you di vampire from the witcher?
Glad to know that at least it’s not as bad as The Invitation. That movie looked promising but disappointed. Glad you took time out to go see this one. Thanks Ryan.
Comment for the algorythm!
So how different is the original Dracula story which this is based on, than bram stoker’s Dracula?
If you mean Coppola's Dracula from 1992, the movie follows the overall events of the book more than many other adaptations. The details though are very different: Dracula never was implied to be Vlad III in the book, but a dude who practiced Scholomancy (dark magic).
There is no love story between Dracula and Mina. In fact, Dracula doesn't care about her in the book but "violates" her/forces her to drink his blood to spite Jonathan. Van Helsing is more of a gentleman compared to Anthony Hopkins over eccentric douchebag in the movie.
Lucy is more innocent and good mannered than in the movie. Oh and there wasn't really that big of a fight between Dracula and the heroes in the book compared to the final fight in the movie. Harker beheads Dracula while Morris stabs him with his hunting knife. Dracula crumbles to dust. The Captain's Log in the book is just a very short chapter which is just a bunch of Log entries from the Captain who says that his crew members disappear, weird things happening. Fridge Horror at its finest and is pretty free to interpret as you see fit. And "The Last Voyage of the Demeter" movie is the interpretation of its director, André Øvredal and the writer Bragi F. Schut. The things that are set is that the Captain was found dead and bound to the steering wheel, the rest of the Crew disappeared and a Black Dog was seen jumping from the ship as it reached the Whitby Shore. The staff behind the Demeter movie took these notes and turned it into a 2-hour monster movie like Alien. And it does it pretty well.
Comment for algorithm
The crew made lots of dumb decisions that fucked up my immersion. Was not scary, and few gory scenes . They often cut away from the action .
grade. C-
Didn’t want to watch it because it seemed like a boring, worse version of alien but on a boat with a not so scary Dracula.
Edit - it appears my suspicions where correct. The movie could work like alien did, if we didn’t already know everything about Dracula. He is no longer mysterious which I feel takes away from most of the brooding horror this sort of film needs.
First
Good job!
