About 1408 (film) in brief
1408 is a 2007 American psychological horror film based on Stephen King’s 1999 short story of the same name. It is directed by Mikael Håfström and stars John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson. The film follows Mike Enslin, an author who investigates allegedly haunted houses and rents the titular room 1408 at a New York City hotel. Although skeptical of the paranormal, he is soon trapped in the room where he experiences bizarre events. Reviews were mostly positive and the film performed positively at the box office. There are three different endings to this film. None of the three endings match the ending of King’s original short story. This one is the default ending of the theatrical release and its theatrical DVD release and he and his wife Lily are skeptical of Mike’s experience and he survives, though Lily is skeptical of his possessions that were rescued from 1408 and Mike takes the mini-cassette recorder from it. This first ending was used in the first theatrical release in the United States because the original ending was too much of a test for audiences that felt the original 1408 was not enough of a scare.
The second and third endings were shot for the DVD release of the film in the U.S. and the theatrical DVD of 1408 in Europe and Australia. The fourth and fifth endings were filmed for the European and Australian theatrical releases of the movie in the UK and Australia in the summer of 2007. The final ending was shot in the fall of 2007 and is shown in the film’s DVD release in Australia and the UK in the spring of 2008. The ending is shown on the Blu-ray version of the DVD, as well as on the DVD and Blu-Ray versions of both the theatrical and European versions of this film in North America and Europe in the winter of 2008 and 2009. The movie was released on June 22, 2007, although July 13 is mentioned as the release date on the website. It was released in the US on July 13, 2007 and was released worldwide on July 14, 2007. It has been released in Australia on August 2, 2008, and in Europe on August 3, 2008 and in the Philippines on August 4, 2008.
