Movie Review - 1408

John Cusack plays a writer who reviews Haunted Hotels and is about to go and review the killer in his career.

Room 1408 in The Dolphin Hotel, New York.

I haven't read the short story this is based on so I can't comment on if this a decent translation from story to film.

The film is weird, it deals with levels of reality.

What is real, what matters to us most.

Cusack is forced to face the demons of his past by the room and watch various former occupants of the room play out their final moments like a macabre tableau.

The final has many twists and decent enough scares and is very entertaining and actually does make you think as well.

Well worth a watch I'd say.
