    I must recommend this movie to all fans of the genre. Very creepy in all of its aspects, great ideas brought to life. Add another to the list of Stephan King's all time greats. Great twist near the end- Watch for it ;)

    We had a great time watching this movie! It's not "torture porn" or slasher as much as suspenseful. That's what I like.

    I don't often like Stephen King's movies or books, but this film was pretty good.

    A friend of mine saw it and said to me: "Don't go see it! It sucked ass!" But I had already seen it and liked it, so to each his own I guess.

    I didn't really like it. I was hoping it would be scarier.

    I've read the short story that it's based on. I haven't seen the film, but I really dug the story.

    i would have liked it a lot better if my sister hadn't told me what the end would be. i guess she didnt expect me to see it. but she thought the movie was hilarious, for some reason. i guess shes a little twisted : )

    I loved it. I think of it as an example of the horror genre trying to get back on its feet after all the slasher shit that's been coming out for a while. Movies like 1408 and The Descent, films that know that you need some suspense, not just organs, to scare an audience are definitely steps in the right direction in my opinion.

    Agreed. Though I did enjoy the movie, it was a bit of a let-down. I was expecting something a bit more thrilling. Not just the story of a skeptical man sat in a hotel room :stunned:

    King's stories always seem to be either hit or miss for me. I hope this one is in the vein of his more "classic" horror pics. But in my opinion Children of the Corn and Secret Window will probably never be beaten.
