Every Stephen King Movie Ranked Worst To Best

14. 1408 (2007)

Room 1408
Dimension Films/MGM

1408, based on the story of the same name, is as simple as simple horror movies come, following a supernatural sceptic (a fittingly terrified John Cusack) who decides to spend a night in a supposedly haunted hotel room. 

And that's it. Directed by Mikael Håfström, the surreal thriller follows Cusack as the walls of reality crumble around him and his mind turns to mush, plagued by images of the dead and hallucinatory images of happily ever after. It's an inventive and scary experience, and it also features a stern but petrified Samuel L. Jackson for good measure. 

Not bad for a film based on a short story King didn't even plan to finish once he started it.
