Spooky Movie

Rating: 9/10 (13 August 2008)

I like movies that scare me without all the unnecessary extra blood and gore. This is one of those movies. The evil villain of this movie is not an actor or actress, but the room itself. I could almost picture myself in the shoes of John Cusack's character and felt very sorry for him going through a living hell of a repeated living nightmare that the room keeps dishing out to him. Samuel L. Jackson plays a very convincing role of trying to talk Cusack's character out of staying the night in room 1408. My only complaint is the beginning of this movie moves somewhat slow. However, I think it is necessary to build up the suspense for what's to come later. See this movie if you want to be spooked.
