Or maybe the room is like the one in 1408 - “inhabited” by something from another realm that enjoys preying on your weaknesses.ġ408 stars John Cusack as Mike Enslin, an author and debunker of paranormal phenomena. Or maybe the room was used as a torture chamber during the last world war (yeah, I’m stretching a bit here). My problem with them is I simply never quite know what has happened in the room prior to my stay and it puts me at unease. I know this because I travel nearly every week and spend way too much of my time in them. No matter how gaudy or pretty they’re made up, they still suck. Now I want to read the Stephen King short story after watching both versions of this movie.I prefer the extended director's cut because the scene in the vent was longer and was explained better.Hotel rooms suck. I felt John carried the film nicely and I was not bored at all like some claim they were.The effects were good, and the scene where Mike Enslin is walking along the outside ledge of the hotel 14 floors off the ground trying to escape had me panicking it was so real.I guess maybe it's my fear of heights but even now when I watch it on the DVD it's scary.SunburnM29 commented that they hated the ending because it was a typical Hollywood ending where Enslin shouldn't die because it would upset the audience.I agree with him and am grateful there is a director's cut with an alternate ending where the character does die instead of surviving the room.I prefer the alternate ending because it is more believable.The theatrical ending was stupid the way it ended. I loved this movie and saw it twice in the theater.
