1408 (2007) is a psychological horror film based on Stephen King’s short story of the same name. The film follows Mike Enslin, a skeptical author who debunks paranormal phenomena by investigating haunted locations. His latest subject is room 1408 in a New York City hotel, which has a history of unexplained deaths. Despite warnings from the hotel manager, Mike insists on staying in the room, only to experience increasingly disturbing events that challenge his disbelief. As reality warps around him, he finds himself trapped in a psychological nightmare that tests his sanity. With tense atmosphere and an unsettling narrative, 1408 builds its horror through psychological torment rather than traditional jump scares. Anchored by a gripping performance from John Cusack, with Samuel L. Jackson in a memorable supporting role, the film delivers a haunting exploration of grief, perception, and the unknown.
