In the
year 3000, the deep space salvage ship Mother III locates the vanished
starship Demeter in the Carpathian System. Captain Abraham Van Helsing
and his crew composed of the blonde assistant Aurora Ash; the crippled
navigator Arthur "The Professor" Holmwood, who believes that he is a
genius; the strong and dumb Humvee; the intern Mina Murry; and the drug
addicted 187, decide to claim the possession of Demeter. While exploring
the spacecraft, they see a tape of fifty years ago of Captain Varna
telling that he was locked in his cabin since his crew was acting weird
after getting a cargo of coffins in Transylvania station.
