PRODUCT REVIEWS

Soldiers in London discover a massive ship that has crashed onto the shore. Upon investigation, the ship seems to be known as The Demeter, and a journal that belonged to the ship’s captain is recovered. Within a few pages of the journal, the soldiers find warnings about something horrifying. The film then goes back in time by four weeks to when The Demeter was docked and loading various containers. Extra hands are needed in the crew, and the search is on for men in the area who may be seeking some work. After multiple enquiries, the crew meets Clemons (Corey Hawkins), who is skilled in the areas of medicine and astronomy. At first, they suspect Clemons is just seeking a free ride and pass on hiring him. Shortly after, an accident at the docks occurs while the crew loads various crates and large loads. Clemons does something heroic that catches the eye of Captain Eliot (Liam Cunningham), and he is invited to join The Demeter and its crew. At the same time, a large wooden box is also put on the ship, and some of the crew and the locals speak of the various symbols on the box, claiming they are evil. As The Demeter begins its journey, strange and unexplainable events begin to take place, putting the entire crew on high alert. Fear grows as they realise that whatever lurks around the ship must be stopped before they reach London. Dracula: Voyage of The Demeter is based on a single chapter from Bram Stoker’s novel. The film is best described as a horror with some thrilling moments. Visually, this film carries a nice touch of realism, particularly The Demeter itself. Costumes and the first act, where we see the ship docking and getting ready to go at sea, are also great. Despite heavy CGI, Dracula carries a menacing and creepy presence, which is pleasing. The sound effects, such as the ship’s noises that echo throughout the entire vessel, are also good. Overall, as a fan of Dracula and all things related to classic monster films, I’m proud to say how much I enjoyed the visuals of this film. This included the ship- The Demeter- the sets and the winged creature himself, Dracula. However, everything in the story is familiar. The pacing is done through a repetitive A to B scene-by-scene process that is exhausting and dull. Most of the film is highly predictable, with only a tiny touch of risk involved. It’s a fun concept, and a few audiences will appreciate it. Still, I wished the experience was far greater than this familiar story that ultimately lacked excitement. * This review has been written for Sanity.
