One of the best!!!

Rating: 9/10 (31 January 2010)

I absolutely LOVE this movie. One of my all time favorites. Yes, there are amazing movies out there...more intense, more action, more cgi etc. etc., BUT this is a much more subtle movie. No need for buckets of blood and gore, a more psychological ghost/haunted hotel story.
One of Mr. King's best stories. The cynical writer, the moving through life, numb and not really "living" that life....leads to the cynical man facing his own demons and those of the room...or hotel or whatever.
Some great lines and acting.
One of my favorite lines is, "It is an evil f_____g room."
John Cusack covers EVERY emotion possible in this movie. Fear, hate, anger, disbelief, heartbreaking sorrow, frustration, hysteria, and a bunch more. Just amazing job on his part. Should have won an award for his portrayal of the cynical writer.
