1408
Diretto da Mikael HåfströmIl famoso scrittore di libri horror Mike Enslin (John Cusack) crede solo in ciò che può vedere con i propri occhi. Dopo una serie di bestseller che screditano gli eventi paranormali avvenuti nelle case infestate dai fantasmi e nei cimiteri più famosi del mondo, non ha nessuna prova concreta di una vita dopo la morte. La serie di lunghe notti solitarie senza fantasmi di Mike, tuttavia, è destinata a cambiare quando entra nella stanza 1408 del famigerato Dolphin Hotel per il suo ultimo progetto, “Dieci Notti nelle Camere d’Albergo Infestate dai Fantasmi.” Sfidando gli avvertimenti del direttore dell’albergo (Samuel L. Jackson), decide di pernottare – il primo dopo anni - proprio nella stanza che tutti considerano infestata, nella speranza che possa essere l’inizio di un nuovo bestseller. Come molti degli eroi di Stephen King, Mike dovrà affrontare i suoi demoni, passando da scettico a credente, prima di superare la notte...

- Thomas Kearney7 marzo 2026It was really touching.I like to do that one
- thereelvoice27 febbraio 2025A psychological horror that keeps you guessing to the very end, 1408 pulls you into a haunted hotel with seemingly no escape. The shots are engrossing and the score is purposely maddening as 1408 attempts to drive you insane right along with John Cusack. While it isn’t the strongest adaptation of Stephen King’s work 1408 will definitely satisfy King fans and horror fans alike.
- nikkiphillips45912 luglio 2025Good movie a few jump scares... makes you question things... but if someone trys that hard to keep you out of a room my suggestion is dont go in and especially dont close the door.
- ርልዪረ23 marzo 2025One of the most elaborate horror/thrillers I've watched for quite a long time. At first look, the premise of the film suggests that it is just another trite and cliche-drenched tale of a "haunted place"; but as the story unfolds, the essence of the film turns out to be a different. Having a plot somewhat reminiscent of some old Stephen King adaptations like "The Shining" and "Rose Red", "1408" has lots of twists and turns with more than enough depth and dimension, working both paranormal and psychological level. Today's horror/thrillers depend too much on graphic violence; where blood, gore, decapitations, and dismembered bodies galore. But here, the film's appeal comes from its effectiveness in creating a foreboding mood and claustrophobic feel of a Kafkaesque hotel room, capturing the essence of King's story very well. Not overly violent and with almost no blood and gore, the villain of the story is not a psychopathic killer, pervert, monster, specter or a mutant, it's the room itself. John Cushack does a good job by being the vainly struggling foe of this evil and mysterious room.
- Paul Walsh13 febbraio 2026This film is a decent addition to the "hopelessly stuck in a location against your will by supernatural forces" subgenre. I find it's plot to be a bit redundant but cannot argue it's entertainment value as a horror film.
- Emanuele Martellone9 luglio 2025Slow start, great buildup, keeps up the tension, the end is decent
- victor.b9028 gennaio 2026Very fun watch. Reminds me of Monster House but in a never ending loop. Parts of it are very tense and keep you guessing what the next thing the hotel is going to will be. The hotel room's really got personality, bit of a goofball XD
- mikellloyd23 giugno 2025Most awesome flick have watched lately!!!!!
- Popcorn24513 gennaio 2026A thrilling ride, with a punch to the gut, it's a suspenseful masterpiece. The acting is fantastic and I didn't even realize it was a Stephen King movie so was an extra little joy knowing it's connected to the other things.
- UniqueMovies Deb H28 maggio 2025Very supernatural and scary!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most definitely a must see and Worth the watch!! ✨👻✨
- Uly19 dicembre 2025Tense and claustrophobic from the jump. The slow build works, and watching Mike gradually lose his mind is easily the best part. It’s more psychological than scary, but the atmosphere carries it well. Wobbles a bit near the end, still a solid watch.
- Darko16 settembre 2025Ok for a monday afternoon.
- Callum8 novembre 2025⭐⭐½ – 1408 – Room Service from Hell 1408 is a tight little psychological horror that traps both its lead and its audience in a room that refuses to play by any rules. Based on Stephen King’s short story, it’s one of those rare haunted-house tales where the fear comes less from what’s seen and more from what might be real. John Cusack carries nearly the entire film on his shoulders — and he does it brilliantly. His slow unraveling from skeptical writer to shattered survivor is the core of what makes the movie work. The setup is simple: a cynical author who debunks hauntings checks into the infamous room 1408 to prove it’s all nonsense. What follows is a steady descent into madness as the room itself becomes a living, breathing antagonist. The visuals are surreal without tipping into absurd, and the sound design does half the scaring — a creeping symphony of whispers, ticking clocks, and barely contained panic. Samuel L. Jackson shows up briefly as the hotel manager, warning our protagonist not to enter — and for once, he keeps his swearing to a minimum. It’s a small role but an effective one, setting the stage with that signature gravitas he can summon in three words flat. It’s not the best King adaptation, but it’s an easy rewatch for horror fans who prefer atmosphere over gore. The theatrical ending — bleak, poetic, and quietly haunting — is the one that lingers. 🥃 Pairing: A glass of whiskey on the rocks — sharp, tense, and just unsettling enough to make you question whether the room around you has started to shift.
- Joshua Leach16 ottobre 2025Solid horror flick,easy rewatch. Theatrical ending is my favorite. John Cusack has a stellar performance in this piece
- CorvinDaery3023 settembre 2025Great story, fantastic acting from JC. But the director's cut ending is plain cr*p. Watch the OG ending that's the best and gives great closure and way more spooky then the DC ending. 4 star horror not too creepy, just the right amount of scares.
