The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023)
One chapter of the novel — the ship — as a whole film.
The voyage is told in the novel through a dead captain’s log. Put a camera on that ship and follow the crew to the end.
You know the ship never makes it, and you want two hours on board anyway.
What it keeps and what it changes
Keeps: the voyage to Whitby and its outcome, which the novel tells you in advance.
Changes: the scale of that chapter, into two hours, and the crew into characters.
Whose story is it?
the crew’s, none of whom appear in the rest of the book.
How much time does it ask?
1 hr 59 min, André Øvredal directing.
Universal describes it as “based on a single chilling chapter” of Stoker’s novel. Rated R.
