New Movie "1408" starring John Cusak

"Mike Enslin is a wayward soul still suffering from the loss of his young daughter. He writes novels about famous haunted houses and other spine-tingling places around the world, exploring all manner of myths and legends along the way. His phantom-free run of long and lonely nights is about to change forever when he checks into suite 1408 at the Dophin Hotel.

Movie type: Horror Thriller - This is a creepy thriller more of the psychological bent than gory slasher kind. Those looking for concrete explanations and answers will be disappointed, but this is one for those who like their movie scares with a minimum of blood.
Director: Mikael Hafström
Script: Matt Greenberg, Scott Alexander
Starring: John Cusack (Mike Enslin), Samuel L. Jackson (Gerald Olin), Mary McCormack (Lily Enslin)
Length: 1 hr. 34 min.

Reviews:
”Good 1408 loses a few chills when Håfström goes effects-happy near the end. But it shouldn't be enough to scare away audiences looking for something other than the assembly-line slice-and-dice horror films of late. Just stay away from the room service.“ USA Today
”Above Average '1408' is not quite interesting enough to linger long in the mind, but it has enough jack-in-the-box chills to mollify those who feel it's been all downhill since The Uninvited.” Newsday
