infinite loop of fear

In this type of film, there is a lot of controversy about the understanding of the plot. I prefer that Room 1408 is a murderous room with supernatural phenomena, not just the subjective phenomenon of the male protagonist's schizophrenia.
The male protagonist is a novelist who does not believe in ghosts, souls and beliefs. Ironically, he makes a living by writing ghost novels, so such a character is destined to be the best choice for the protagonist of the story. In this murderous room, a series of supernatural events happened that made the protagonist begin to believe in the existence of supernatural beings. In the face of terrifying forces, he became irrational. He tried to escape, but could not find an exit. With hope and a new life, the protagonist once again falls into this endless cycle of terror. This is the most terrifying part of the murderous world. The endless darkness and unseen hope are the things that can break faith the most. In the face of the murderer's suicide and the continuation of the cycle, the protagonist's flash of humanity finally defeated the evil. For the sake of his wife and the lives of more innocent people, he chose to die with the murderer.
The downside of the film is the lack of foreshadowing, which greatly reduces the creation of a terrifying atmosphere. John Cusack's performance is great, Cerol Jackson is not my type of actor, especially disgusting his often-cited "well well well". A good film is that it has a good story, and Stephen King's novel adaptation will inevitably become a guarantee of film quality.
