Editorial Reviews:
|
Based on a story by Stephen King, the Dolphin Hotel hides a deadly secret - a long-closed room so evil, no guest has ever survived an hour within its walls. But when a skeptical writer Mike Enslin defies the grave warnings of the Dolphin's manager and insists on spending the night, 1408 reopens for business.

Summary: Great Scary Movie
Comment: This is a great scary movie in so many ways. It's got a great story line and that "weird" Steven King feel to it...it's confusing in a good way...you are trying to figure out what is actually happening and what room 1408 is actually all about. It's a mystery as much as a scary movie. If you are looking for something new and different this is a good bet!

Summary: This is the worst movie I've this seen year
Comment: This movie is so horrible. The first quarter of the film starts off really good and then takes a nosedive thereafter. I only watched it to the end because I had already invested so much time waiting for it to get better, but it doesn't. Please avoid this movie at all cost.

Summary: Great movie... wrong ending. This is not what you saw in theaters!
Comment: First things first. This is one of the best horror movies I've seen in years. I'm happy that three of my favorite, recent horror films (1408, EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE and THE RING) have been PG-13. They rely more on great writing than gore. The two-disc DVD of 1408 had a second disc with the director's original ending, which was a bit of a downer. I understood why it was reshot, as the ending shown in theaters framed the action with a bit more meaning and a bit less nihilism. Anyway, I bought the blu-ray version for the better picture quality and the slimmer, space-saving package. In checking the packaging, it looked like the blu-ray was pretty much the same as the two-disc DVD. WRONG! THE BLU-RAY HAS THE DIRECTOR'S CUT ENDING! Nowhere on the package is this indicated. Granted, the ending seen in theaters is available in the special features as an isolated scene... but I don't want that. I want what the package implies: the theatrical cut in the blu-ray format. So, buyer beware. Doesn't make this a bad film, but I'm not going to be able to get rid of my DVD.
