1408

I wanted a sequel and never got it 😭😩

The best horror movie ever.
If you’ve ever experienced badtrip or some kind of mental illness, you’re probably gonna be scared af while and after watching this masterpiece

A master piece, really fantastic. A nice twist somewhere in the movie. A real mind bender.

The streamed versions have the alternate ending. The theatrical one is 10x better.

Great movie, ending was good, isnt dissapointing.

Mindbender. Scary in the sense that when you think you can outsmart your imagination, it is always three steps ahead. Eslin was dead as soon as he did a double take with that postcard.

[spoiler] The DVD cover of the film painted a different picture but a film based in the actual year 1408..actually would of been pretty cool but I digress.
This was the first night of my Horror/Mind Fuck weekend. Movies I haven't seen. What huge surprise this was! Not so much frightening but the story itself drew me in. The allure and history of the room told in thode first few minutes along with the psychological roller coaster the writer was taken on. Great performances and would defiantly watch again! [/spoiler]

Not only an excellent adaptation, but one of the scarier movies I can remember seeing in a long time.

From famed horror author Stephen King comes the suspense thriller _1408_. The story follows paranormal novelist Mike Enslin as he takes on the challenge of staying in room 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel, which is supposedly cursed. John Cusack gives an outstanding performance as the lead, and is supported by Samuel L. Jackson. Additionally, the script is especially well written, and does an amazing job at giving a surreal and nightmarish quality to the experience of being in the room. Terrifying and chilling, _1408_ is a powerful horror film that’s smart and well-crafted.

Nice, they aren’t forcing the Director’s cut ending on you anymore. When I watched it on Hulu or even when I bought it. I was getting the Alternate ending version. Without even called the directors cut.
Now suddenly I own the theatrical ending one on Prime. Which I prefer. John Cusack’s last good movie in awhile I think. Definitely better than his King adaptation of Cell which came out a couple of years later.
Which also reunited him with Samuel L. Jackson. 1408 is creepy and trippy, as well as a fun movie to watch in the dark.
