Review of The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) by Cska_Ael — 18 Aug 2023

Movie of the Week for 12 bucks can't really go wrong so it was value for money but there were few things which kind of bugged me considering I did indeed read Bram Stocker's Dracula. For me number one issue is they sort of started the story in the middle (Which Dracula's journey from Romania to England is) and they don't really do a good job to explain the origin basically just assumes everyone read the book and they know who Count Dracula is ? Why he is travelling to London ? What was he doing until he came to a brilliant idea to migrate to England. 2nd problem their Count Dracula looks more like a Leper then a Vampire honestly they couldn't even get the teeth right. 3rd problem The whole plot is based around the question you already knew before you even start watching the movie ,everyone knows Count Dracula does indeed reach London where he finds Mina etc... so why base the plot around this in the first place ?

Thing I did like was Aisling Franciosi , I can't believe she plays a kid while she is actually 30 , they nailed this part also her Romanian accent is amazing considering she was Irish . The ending sucked it suggests a sequel Black man vs Dracula in London which I admit is a take on the story we didn't have before but I think they should have kept Aisling Franciosi alive.
