In the saturated cinematic world of bloodsuckers, it’s important to carve a niche to help the film stand out from its predecessors. The visual palette drenched in melancholic grays and blues are effective in creating atmosphere, the film falls prey to predictability. Its no secret that Universal is desperate to get their monster cinematic universe off the ground, but haven’t had much luck. After watching The Last Voyage of the Demeter, its clear the studio will have to continue its search for success.
The Last Voyage begins in Whitby England 1897, where the Demeter is shipwrecked, and desolate. The local police discover and try to investigate, but are too spooked to continue. The film then backtracks to four weeks earlier in Romania. The Demeter is docked and looking for crew to help take cargo to London. Clemens (Hawkins), a cambridge educated man looking to return to England, saves Captain Eliot (Cunningham) grandson Toby (Norman) from getting crushed by a large crate. Clemens is then invited on board to work. There are several boxes of cargo, all labeled with ominus dragron crest symbols that weirds out the local Romanians who can’t wait for the ship to leave their shores.
On the Demeter, things run smoothly at first, but are then shaken up by the arrival of Anna (Franciosi), a stowaway within the cargo. She’s on the verge of dying and admisistered a blood transfusion to save her life. While the woman is unconscious, things fall a part as the animals on board are killed via blood drainage. This is when the crew turns on each other blaming one another for the incident, when one isolated member is confronted by Dracula himself. As they discovers what they are dealing, they find their chances of survival grow

Brent Lang Executive Editor “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” sank without a trace over its opening weekend, going to a watery grave with just $6.5 million. The period horror film, which centers on one chapter of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula,” namely the bit where his coffin gets transported from Transylvania to England, was distributed by Universal. It’s the studio’s second stab at reviving the world’s most famous vampire, with last spring’s “Renfield,” a campy take on the bloodsucker, also collapsing at the box office.
Brent Lang Executive Editor “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” set sail with $750,000 in previews on Thursday. The horror film, which is derived from a transit-heavy chapter of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula,” screened in 2,350 theaters with showings beginning at 5:00 p.m. It tells the story of the merchant ship that ferried fifty unmarked wooden crates from Carpathia to London.
came the unfunny “Renfield,” starring Nicolas Cage as the count and Nicholas Hoult as his mistreated assistant. And now, as if we haven’t been bitten enough already, here’s the new horror film “The Last Voyage of the Demeter,” about the vamp’s not-so-pleasurable cruise to England.Running time: 118 minutes. Rated R (bloody violence).
Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” has a terrible title, but in theory the film sounds intriguing. It wants to be an old-fashioned monster movie, the kind they used to produce back when horror films were actual movies, made with the stodgy well-carpentered rhythm that any movie was made with. “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” is set in 1897, and for most of it we’re aboard a large wooden ship with multiple sails — the Demeter, a handsome relic, since this is already the era when metal ships were coming in — that’s sailing from Bulgaria to London.

Jessica Kiang Nobody can be both the magnifying glass and the ant burning up under its glare. Nobody, that is, except shaggy Romanian shaman Radu Jude who, with his Locarno competition entry “Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World,” follows up 2021’s Berlinale-winning “Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn” with a dizzying, dazzling feat of social critique, an all-fronts-at-once attack on the zeitgeist, and a mischievous, often hilarious work of art about the artifice of work.
It’s rare that European cinema impacts on Hollywood but it’s exciting when there’s a trickle-down effect, like the connection to be made between Denmark’s stripped-down Dogme movies, which launched in Cannes in the late ’90s, and Steven Spielberg’s decision to go back to basics (well, for him) with Catch Me If You Can a few years later. It’s a moot point how many will ever see Romanian director Radu Jude’s follow-up to his 2021 Berlinale winner Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn, but, like Bob Dylan going electric or the Sex Pistols making their ramshackle debut at a London art school, this wilfully uncommercial but bloody-minded film could be genuinely seminal in its anarchic and totally individualistic approach, slipping discordant, Godardian subversion into a darkly comic, Ruben Östlund-style human drama.
Joe Leydon Film Critic Writer-director Nicholas Maggio may not have intended to be self-critical when, fairly early in his debut feature “Mob Land,” he has one character observe to another about their failing small Southern town, “This whole place has become a fucking cliché.” But the longer this slackly paced rural noir continues, the more that dialogue seems in retrospect like fair warning. Borrowing freely from “No Country for Old Men,” “Collateral” and maybe a dozen or so other superior films, Maggio has cobbled together a modestly diverting, effectively atmospheric but blatantly derivative crime drama sprinkled with a few joltingly nasty plot twists.
