It is obvious that most of the reviewers never read the original and not even saw Coppola Dracula (perhaps the most close to the book).
The Demeter is a very small part of the book; just a few lines never a great or even important part of the history.
Second; there are lots of crucifixes but Dracula ignores them; like had no effect against him
Third; Dracula looked like a person; in fact a very sensous one. Here is basically a monster from that NOSFERATU movie that NEVER GOT THE RIGHTS to use the character.
Nothing against women; but the only one here shoots better than males and even fight more; there was a #MEETOO# in the 19 century ?
Vampires need to be buried (in his own land; thus the reason of the boxes full of dirt) to convert; and the do not burn immediately until the really feed (that is not even in the book). In fact the ones here never drink, not even kill anybody
On top of all that; as always characters does the most stupid things and are killed in order of importance. But as nobody is very defined almost nobody cares.
Corey Hawkins is very good actor and he does his part very well; but his part is basically VAN HELSING with the name changed
Liam Cunningham is good as always; as is Woody Norman that creates the only terrifying part of the move
Taking liberties with a clastic is one thing; but basically changing the mythology ignoring most things is basically chaotic. This is what these people had done.
In brief ; terrible made adaptation, far from horror and not even Dracula is right. Do not lose your time.
