Trailer for Game of Thrones and Ant-Man stars' Dracula movie

Dracula seems to be having a moment as another horror about the fanged Count is coming to our screens.

Set to be released this August, The Last Voyage of the Demeter has little in common with Renfield, starring Nicolas Cage as the infamous vampire and premiering tomorrow (April 14).

The film from director André Øvredal adapts one of the chapters ("The Captain's Log") of 1897 Bram Stoker novel Dracula and promises to send some serious chills downs your spine.

A merchant ship know as the Demeter is chartered from Romania to London with a cargo of crates whose content is unknown. Judging from the trailer released today (April 13), these crates are none other that comfortable coffins for Dracula to enjoy his beauty sleep before getting to the UK.

Except he won't stay in there too long, as the clip reveals all the livestock are being slaughtered, alerting the crew they may not be alone on the ship and whatever came for the animals may soon target them.
