Gist: parallels of life and the film are discussed
The Last Voyage of the Demeter’s plot is derived from one chapter of Dracula by Bram Stoker. It is NOT A POPULAR MOVIE, a mere 6 million gross compared to Barbie’s 155 million. I would say Demeter is enjoyable to literature and horror fans alike,. The film’s scariness is lacking due to its predictability. Target audience for it is younger than allowed in an R-rated film. It could scare someone who has never read it. They might be emoted. Director Schut’s adaptation is different, because his Dracula is a blood-thirsty animal, who lacks the panache of the original.
I am always down for a vampire flick. I love many, including: the Lost Boys, Interview With The Vampire, Bela Lugosi’s classical interpretation of Dracula from 1931, Only Lovers Left Alive.
I do not fucking know the textual consistency between these films, but I wish I did. I’d fucking write one half as good and be happy.
I recently quit sobriety, so I am back to going to bars. Sometimes it still feels like there is nothing to do. I discovered Demeter release, because I checked Fandango a million times while I was sober with nothing to do.
Word to the wise, don’t arm wrestle in bars. At the tiki bar, a happy picnic table adjacent invited me over to arm wrestle. The big guy had just stripped his hoodie, staff reminding him no shirts, no service.
“You gotta keep your shirt on. We won’t allow that.”
“Okay. But, I’m hot.”
I FUCKING WON TWICE, but I wounded my right shoulder. It feels like a shark bit my arm off. This looks can be deceiving thing is a parallel of the movie. The sailors who boarded the Demeter, thought the job looked good, like high seas adventure. Unbeknownst to them, Grendel lurked in the shadows.
After the movie, I dreamt that Leonardo DiCaprio taught me to speak New Englander. I study Carl Jung, whose dream theory said our base desires hide in the unconscious. He called this darkness “the shadow.” To know oneself, one must let their secrets out from the shadow. For example, one night I dreamed I stalked my ex around her home. “The shadow” is a parallel of Demeter, because as much as the crew hide from the monster, malevolence returns every time it’s dark.
There’s no reason to question for how long we’ll be on earth: I have a jar of sweet pickled peppers that is muy rico and I can order in Outback Steakhouse. The film says “I have seen ugly, and I have seen beautiful. I have seen people who were willing to die to protect beautiful from ugly.” I feel like eating rico things is what I would die to save. The food in the movie was britfood, and I don’t know how I feel about that as far as rico goes. The crew gave their lives though, dying to protect life, mushy peas, etc.
