    The Last Voyage of Demeter - adaptation of Chapter 7 of Bram Stoker's Dracula.

    The voyage of Dracula by cargo ship from Bulgaria to England, based on the captain's log.

    A decent adaptation and a well made gothic horror. Interesting to see a film about one part of the book usually skipped over.

    7/10

    Denzil is high standard.

    There are probably films he's made that would've been bang average if he hadn't been in them.

    Man on Fire is one that's underrated. Great film largely down to him.

    Which is his best though? Personally, Fallen is my favourite.

    Wanna see it soon, like the Equalizer films.

    Denzel probably pound for pound the best actor on the planet I’d say.

    Ah man how do you choose the fave Denzil film.

    No particular order I'll add Malcolm X, Philadelphia, Crimson Tide, Man on Fire, Much Ado About Nothing, just too many to think of.

    See my response, can't believe you haven't listed either. Malcolm X is superb though.

    So after Denzil, I'm now watching Discovering Film on Sky Arts and they're doing Harrison Ford's whole filmography. Another actor with a career of great films.

    Going to watch these Equaliser films, think I watched the first one when it came out and didn't think much of it but might not have been in the mood or something. Never seen 2 so that'll be new to me.

    Bit weird this, but was this evening chatting about TV and films and such like and someone mentioned The Equaliser films.

    I didn't know they existed with Denzel Washington, never heard of them. Will have to have a look.

    Hadn't read this part of the thread btw.

    Man on Fire, just caught it Film 4. As said earlier, great film. Ruthless and brutal.
