Boring

Rating: 4/10 (10 April 2010)

This movie is not worthy of the high praise. There is nothing new or intelligent here
There is barely any plot - A horror novelist who gets his inspiration from visiting murder sites decides to stay in "infamous" hotel room 1408 - what unfolds is nothing more than souped up Twilight Zone episode.
The whole film hinges on John Cusacks solo performance which badly cast and without any depth. The character is badly written, his egocentric attitude annoying and some of his actions so idiotic they are beyond belief. For the seasoned horror fan this all left for a very uninvolved experience.
