1408.....not so scary

Rating: 4/10 (25 June 2007)

This movie, where do I start??? I am a huge Horror movie genre fan, this was not a horror movie, this was Hollywood cashing in on Stephen King's name. Mr. King has a flare for writing the scariest stories ever written, but when these stories get tuned into a movie, they lose that. I found this movie to be utterly pointless, the best part of the movie was Samuel L. Jackson, and he was only in it for 10 minutes. what was the point of his dad? Who was the hammer killer? Show me something.....There was more action in made for TV movies like "IT", which scared the crap out of me. I found "1408" to be a waste of time and money. I think that it did have potential though, but maybe the PG 13 Rating killed it. I was expecting more. The ending was very disappointing. I say if you love horror movies, Wait for this to come out on video, you will be better off. save your money.
