1408: Director's Cut
Visually stunning. Some effective scares and scenes (most notably, the shaft-chaser, and the daughter-to-ashes.) And hey, I love the song "We've Only Just Begun". The countdown was effective, etc. Basically, everything scare-wise and visually was near perfect. Cusack was a let down in some aspects, his acting wasn't so stupendous as many would have you believe. For example, his 'shocked' look during the scene in which the post office is torn down was just ludicrous. I was told there was a mind-bending, amazing twist - but I must have missed it. Not a fan of Stephen King, so maybe it's why I didn't like the movie THAT much. It certainly isn't bad, but I wouldn't watch it again.
