Movies: 1408

Anyone who knows me knows that I do truly believe in the supernatural. I know for a fact that Joe is still floating around me. I’ve listed numerous times that he’s given me shooting stars, a breeze and many other things that have brought a sense of comfort to me after his death. I know that whenever I need him there for support, he is. And while I can’t personally speak to him, he does still give me signs to let me know when he’s around and listening to me.

Just recently I came across a commercial for 1408 Movie. It’s starring John Cusack (whom I love) and it’s pretty darn interesting based on what I’ve read about it.

Based on the short Stephen King horror story of the same name, 1408 surrounds supernatural writer Mike Enslin, an author of two hit books focusing on supernatural phenomena. As research for his latest book, Enslin is determined to check out the notorious room 1408 in a New York City hotel by personally staying as a guest in the fabled room. With the intention that 1408 is just a myth perpetuated by stories and rumor that Enslin has collected for his past works. However, hotel manager Mr. Olin has strong objections to Enslin’s stay and only warns him of possible danger to come. But Enslin is determined to go through and convinced that the horrific past of 1408 is just mere coincidence and a myth. But what Mike Enslin is about to experience is no myth, as 1408 truly is a room where the guests don’t check out by noon.

And below is a quick trailer of 1408 Movie if you’re interested in the visual aspect of it. Sometimes reading the text for it takes away from the movie itself, even if it is based on a book of course…heh.
