Storyline:
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. — Universal Pictures

Schut, Jr. Zak Olkewicz. It is an adaptation of “The Captain’s Log”, a chapter from the 1897 novel Dracula by Bram Stoker.

Principal photography for the film began on June 30, 2021, in Berlin, before occurring in Malta, and ended on October 1.
Director André Øvredal described this film as “basically Alien (1979) on a ship in 1897”.
In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Demeter is the Olympian goddess of harvest and agriculture, presiding over crops, grains, food, and the fertility of the earth. Although she is mostly known as a grain goddess, she also appeared as a goddess of health, birth, and marriage, and had connections to the Underworld.
The Last Voyage of the Demeter was released theatrically in the United States on August 11, 2023, by Universal Pictures. It was previously scheduled for January 27, 2023.
