Watch or Pass Review of The Last Voyage of the Demeter, the movie based on a single chapter of Bram Stoker's Dracula that follows the doomed crew that is unknowingly transporting the vampire to the new world. The film features a great cast, nice sets and period touches, and great music. I discuss the film, what I liked, and what I didn't like, discuss the ending, and try to not get drained.
