I’m definitely a bit torn with this one. On the one hand, it’s got John Cusack, and I rarely miss a chance to see Big John up on the big screen. On the other hand, it’s a horror movie, and I rarely miss a chance to skip a horror movie.
When I heard that 1408 was actually the number of the hotel room where the entire movie takes place, I was relieved because I figured I was off the hook. But then I saw this trailer, and I have to admit, it does looks really good.
I don’t know… I think I may just have to drag my wimpy butt to the theater to SEE IT.
1408 is rated R and opens June 22. (Official Site)


I’m not a big horror fan as well, but this movie looks like it’d be worth seeing in the theater.
That looks terrifying. And great.
