1408, 56 deaths, all a dream?

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2007)

now by just reading the title you're wondering what im asking. well, here it is. in this room 1408 many deaths occurred, some are talked about through (spoilers) paintings and what not, but the important thing is about this guy michael ensling *names might be different (john cusaks) and how he demystifies scary and unnatural happenings is places (i.e. hotels, houses etc.) beyond the explanation of who he is, someone sends him a card warning im not to go into 1408 (which isn't explained) and he soon enters the room to the dismay of the manager (samuel jackson). he soon finds out the room holds many stories and soon seems to go insane. the only thing is the manager says electronics don't work inside, but he has his laptop, tape recorder, lights, uv lights, television and other things working, now that seems odd. all in all the ending was off because he speaks to his wife through a chat site saying he;s in the room, she says there's no one there and is then rescued by policemen, again this is surely explained in the short story by stephen king (i sure hope so). the scares were real and the idea of it is tangible, the execution is fantastic but the explanation is missing. part dream and part reality sometimes you couldn't tell the difference.
