Possibly one of the worst movies I have ever seen

Rating: 1/10 (4 July 2007)

After reading the reviews for this movie on this site I am beginning to believe that IMDb has been taken over by 14 year old girls. How anyone could find anything of quality in this movie is beyond me. The first 20 minutes were OK at best as I thought it was building up to something. Then it became a hodgepodge of "scary" events that had little or no relevance to each other. It was all cliché filler for an hour, with pitiful attempts to throw the viewer off here and there.
I have always trusted an IMDb score of 7 as a mark of a decent film. When you get close to a score of 8 you generally get an excellent film. I went in to the theater with high expectations as 1408 has received a 7.8. 2/3rds the way through I was laughing at how horrible the movie was and considered walking out.
