Watched the movie last night, must admit it was a good suspense/thriller movie with a few dashes of "fright factor" thrown in for good measure, John Cusak played a sterling role and Samuel L Jackson added an ominous flair.
Probably the best Stephen King movie since "The Shining"...
Below some basic movie info if u like....
1408 is a 2007 film based on the Stephen King short story of the same name directed by Swedish film director Mikael Håfström. The cast includes John Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, and Mary McCormack. The film was released in the US on June 22, 2007 although July 13th is mentioned as the release date in the trailer posted on the website. The film has been rated PG-13 in the USA for thematic material including disturbing sequences of violence and terror, and frightening images.
Author Mike Enslin's (Cusack) search for the supernatural has come up empty and as a result he's resorted to writing books in which he falsely claims to have had supernatural experiences. Despite the writing of these books his personal belief in the supernatural is far more skeptical. His latest research subject for these books is a hotel room in New York City with an ominous past. In his determination to prove the room is not haunted, Enslin may have stumbled into a real-life horror story.
