1408- the absolute best movie i've ever seen

     1408 is an amazing movie and there is no possible way to not like this movie unless you are blind or born without a soul.  It's a movie about a man who lost his daughter to cancer bout 2 years ago and then left his wife.  He didn't divorce her, he just left and later we find out that it was because everytime he looked at her he saw the daughter.  I love that line because its so loaded with pitiful sadness and plays with your emotions.  Anyways, he goes around to lots of different places which are supposed to be haunted and then proves that they are not.  He has written a book about it and is looking for a sequel when he goes to the Dolphin hotel in order to investigate room 1408, but when he asks for the room the staff act suspiciously and call the manager who tries to dissuade him from entering the room but to no avail.  During his night in the room bizaar and unnatural events attempt to crush him both physically and mentally in a way that will captivate you.  The movie starts to mess with your mind near the end and makes you question what is actually going on, but the ending is haunting and amazing and sad at the same time and it made me want to watch this movie again just because I couldn't believe what had just happened.  The ending made me literally just sit there gaping at the tv while thinking " there is no way that just happened." It will blow your mind and I highly recommend it.
