For the second time this year, Dracula is back on the big screen inThe Last Voyage of the Demeter. And rest assured, this is not the same comedic take on the lord of the vampires that was featured inRenfieldearlier this year. This is old-school Dracula, the monster who made Bram Stoker’s novel one of the most enduring horror stories of all time.
Bragi Schut Jr. and Zak Olkewicz’s script is based onThe Captain’s Log, a single chapter from Stoker’sDracula.Game of Thronesveteran Liam Cunningham is portraying Captain Elliot in the film, whileThe Walking Deadveteran Corey Hawkins portrays the ship’s doctor, Clemens. Aisling Franciosi c0-stars as Anna, with David Dastmalchian as Wojchek, and Javier Botet as Dracula. The rest of the cast includes Woody Norman, Jon Jon Briones, Stefan Kapičić, Nikolai Nikolaeff, Martin Furulund, Chris Walley, Nicolo Pasetti, and Sally Reeve.
André Øvredal directed The Last Voyage of the Demeter, which is now out in theaters. And now, we’ll answer your burning question about whether you can stream it.
Is The Last Voyage of the Demeter streaming?
No, not yet. But given the crowded state of the current box office,The Last Voyage of the Demetermay have worked better with a different arrival date.Barbieremained in first place last weekend, withMeg 2: The Trench,Oppenheimer, andTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhemtaking up the second, third, and fourth slots, respectively. While all four films will likely finish with lower numbers this weekend,The Last Voyage of the Demeterwill have to seriously outperform expectations to crack the top four.
For a relatively low-budget horror movie, those conditions aren’t exactly ideal. And ifThe Last Voyage of the Demetercan’t overcome these rocky waters at the box office, then its stay in theaters may be very short.
Will The Last Voyage of the Demeter be available to stream at home?
Yes, and it will possibly stream as soon as September unlessThe Last Voyage of the Demetercan overcome the significant obstacles in front of it. And since this is a Universal Pictures movie, that meansThe Last Voyage of the Demeterwill have a streaming home on Peacock just in time to be one of the featured horror selections in October.
