THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER is an adaptation of one of the most chilling chapters from Bram Stoker's famous novel, Dracula, and the terrifying tale of the Demeter, a merchant ship carrying a very discreet cargo of unidentified wooden crates bound for London from the Carpathians.
On board the cursed vessel, strange events soon befall the crew, who must try, during this fateful voyage, to escape a strange presence that relentlessly hunts them night after night. The wreck, a veritable ghost ship that eventually washes ashore on the English coast, is now but a shadow of the Demeter, aboard which there is no longer a soul alive.
The film stars Corey Hawkins (WHERE WE COME FROM, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON) as Clemens, the Demeter's doctor; Aisling Franciosi (Game of Thrones, THE NIGHTINGALE) as an unwitting stowaway; Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones, CLASH OF THE TITANS) as the ship's captain; and David Dastmalchian (of the DUNE and ANT-MAN franchises) as his first mate.
Also featured are Jon Jon Briones (Ratched, American Horror Story), Stefan Kapicic (the DEADPOOL franchise, Better Call Saul), Nikolai Nikolaeff (Stranger Things, Meurtie), and Javier Botet (IT, MAMA).
THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER, produced by DreamWorks Pictures and the producers of ZODIAC and BLACK SWAN, is directed by Norwegian horror master André Øvredal (SCARY STORIES, TROLL HUNTER). The screenplay is by Bragi Schut, Jr. (ESCAPE ROOM) and Zak Olkewicz (BULLET TRAIN), based on Bragi Schut, Jr.’s adaptation of the Demeter’s logbooks in Bram Stoker’s famous novel Dracula.
The film is produced by Bradley J. Fischer, p.g.a., and Academy Award®-nominated producer Mike Medavoy, p.g.a., along with Arnold W. Messer for Phoenix Pictures. Executive producers include Matthew Hirsch, Chris Bender, Anne Rodman, and Jeb Brody.
