Review of 1408 (2007) by Hellholehorror — 16 Feb 2022
The film starts interestingly enough with a good build up to the infamous room 1408. The room itself is pretty damn scary with some really jumpy moments of ghostly activities. The effects are very solid looking and the claustrophobic paranoia pulled off really well.
The problem is that when he leaves the room for the first time the story becomes confusing and pointless. The ending (of the theatrical version that I saw) is very weak indeed. Overall I would say that you can watch it but be prepared for it to get boring when the scary room has been left behind and even when it is rejoined.
Effectively scary room that has little other reason for watching.
