The Last Voyage of the Demeter on Showmax

The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023)

The Last Voyage of the Demeter chronicles the doomed journey of a merchant ship ferrying 50 mysterious wooden crates from Carpathia to London. The crew soon discover they are not alone on board: at night they are stalked by a hidden passenger whose monstrous thirst for blood turns the trip into a harrowing nightmare.

Based on a single chilling chapter from Bram Stoker's classic novel, Dracula, the film has been praised by horror icons like Guillermo del Toro, who called it "gorgeous, lavish and savage,” and Stephen King, who called it “a throat-ripping good time.”

The Last Voyage of the Demeter was up for Best Creature FX at this year’s Fangoria Chainsaw Awards, as well as nine Golden Scythe Horror Awards, including Best Actor (Corey Hawkins) and Best Supporting Actor (Liam Cunningham).
