FILM4 FRIGHTFEST ADDS 1408 TO PROGRAMME - New 13th July 07.
1408 is an added attraction to the Film4 FrightFest line-up. The highest-grossing adaptation of a Stephen King horror story in cinema history stars John Cusack as author of the ‘Ten Haunted Hotels’ travel guide. But in Room 1408 of Manhattan’s Dolphin Hotel he encounters his first true evil experience as the cursed suite reflects his fears and disintegrating psyche. Film4 FrightFest is pleased to present this advance preview screening as part of the stellar programme. And we are delighted that director Mikael Hafstrom will be in attendance to introduce his smash hit and participate in a Q&A session.
