Claudio Carabba ( Corriere della Sera Magazine)

good to spend the night in the haunted house, is a classic of black literature. The great Margheriti built on a nightmare ( Dance Macabre ) that memory still scares me. This time we start from King, one who knows that the dead sometimes return, and are often in a bad mood. The author of bestsel ler damn about hotels (with a lot of stars to classify the fright) encounter serious trouble in the room Dolphin Hotel 1408 in downtown New York. The man is skeptical to cynical, perhaps because it was marked by a terrible mourning (the fatal illness of her daughter child): if God does not exist, there is not even the demons. Despite the warnings of the hotel manager (or hell?) The writer opens the door with arrogance. Error. All those who died there in the siege, and the spectrum will also most popular. The director runs between hallucination and reality, to a dark open-ended; stumbles here and there, but the atmosphere is well created.


Francesco Alo (The Messenger)
The world is so disgusting as to justify the political nihilism of Hostel and Saw. Torture without hope in dirty places. Stephen King's stories are fairy tales in which a comparison are still, human relationships, guilt, irony, collective memory and a set design class. Sublime vintage. Terrorizziamoci with the old 1408 by Mikael Hafstrom, another European here in Hollywood who adapted a short story of 60 year old King. Disillusioned writer (John Cusack) who demystifies the business places "cursed", will close 1408 in a hotel room in New York to demonstrate it's all a lie. Change his mind. Walls dripping with blood, bitter cold and handsets that will melt, faxes that send people dead clothes, alarm clocks that turn into deadly countdown, the ghosts of former customers who jump from the window. Shining in The recall is strong. The room is a physical monster but also the passage that allows the player to enter his own head trauma and relive deadly. John Cusack is fantastic and the room 1408. Great couple. We give thanks to his grandfather King, now refined and ancient as Edgar Allan Poe.

And now it's up to me: good movie, good interpretation of Cusack that allows the viewer to feel part of the visual effects "that is experiencing" good level of tension, I would say at the right point. Deserves a 7.


Until next time;)
