1408
BAFTA®–nominated John Cusack (High Fidelity, Being John Malkovich) leads as author Mike Enslin in this psychological thriller - a non-believer in the supernatural who decides to put his personal belief to the test by taking on a new project which soon makes him realise that there is such a thing as life after death.
When Enslin (Cusack), a sceptical horror novelist receives a postcard provoking him to spend one night at the notorious room 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel, he ignores the grave warnings of hotel manager Samuel L Jackson (Pulp Fiction) with terrifying consequences.
Tension and mystery override the sinister room from the moment he closes the door, creating a non-stop cycle of fear. The normally bland environment of a hotel room becomes a psychological torture chamber in a mind-bending experience of claustrophobic terror.
The stellar performances from Cusack and Jackson throughout this psychological thriller grip the audience from start to finish and ultimately prove that you don’t have to see something to know it exists.
