The Last Voyage of the Demeter - 4/10
Would've been way higher if not for the absolute stupidity that was the Toby-gets-bitten scene. My God, I've seen my fair share of horror movies stupidty, but this takes the cake by far.
Olgaren, who was a meat puppet at that point for all intents and purposes, almost managed to open the lock on the door from the inside BECAUSE HE USED HIS RIGHT HAND TO DO IT.
But here comes the Cambridge doctor who slams into the door and uses his fucking left hand to try and open it ffs
And to make it even worse, the fucking captain is there, who has made God knows how many voyages with this ship yet can't figure out that there's a sizeable hole in his cabin door through which he might put his right arm through and open the door, thus saving Toby
There's PIS, But this is straight up piss
Besides all that, Anna is probably the second most annoying character in the whole movie, aside from Cambridge PhD himself. Literally her first time on a boat, in a situation like this, yet she's more competent than ragged, seasoned seamen. You don't get Ripley just by casting a female character in your movie, you actually need to write her well.
And, for some reason, in the last third of the movie, the writers decide "hey, let's use mr PhD to make a "I have a dream" knock off speech, because reasons. Bruh, they're fighting a literal demon and you use that as a backdrop for a watered down political speech. It's 2023, those that don't already get that racism=bad will not be swayed by a movie monologue, especially in a fucking Dracula movie
Hell, the whole last third of the movie is a rollercoaster of brain damage
If not for the setting itself and Liam Cunningham(who barely had pressence in the whole movie), the rating would've been even lower
What a waste
