Many people have superstitions; they knock on wood and say "bless you" when someone sneezes. You hear people say "don't jinx me" or "13 is an unlucky number." Perhaps they believe in those things, but what makes those things so powerful? As with most fears, it is a fear of the unknown or unexplainable. The word supernatural pertains to forces regarded as beyond nature; they cannot be explained from the laws of the natural world. Ah, so you see, perhaps more people believe and have experience something supernatural than you originally thought.
Stephen King believes in the supernatural. This is why he writes about it so very well. It is almost as if a forces guides his pen, wouldn't you say? Can you really explain how one man can have over 50 bestselling horror novels?
And so the premise behind his novel "1408" is with a fictional horror writer Mike Enslin who only believes what he can see with his own two eyes. His beliefs are tested after he checks into suite 1408 of the notorious Dolphin Hotel. Enslin ignores the warnings of the hotel manager, Mr. Olin who knows not all myths are frauds.
Dimension Films has turned this horror novel into a movie. John Cusack plays Mike Enslin and Samuel L. Jackson plays Mr. Olin in the big screen version of Stephen King's "1408." The 1408 Movie tagline is: "No one lasts more than an hour."
Everyone knows, or should know, that I do believe in the supernatural. And I have seen and been in contact with things I cannot explain or even claim they are from this world. There are good spirits and there are evil spirits. Both of which I can attest to with absolute knowing and not just a belief. And when you encounter an evil being, you will never forget it. There is a house on the street where I live which I will never set foot in, nor will I set foot on the property. A teenage boy was murdered in this house many years ago. The people who live there now have told me drawers open, pens write, closet doors shut...all by themselves. But it wasn't until I saw him in the window that I really knew he was not to be reckoned with. I wish I had just believed what the residents of the house had told me, because the vision I saw will never leave my mind. I am sure Mike Enslin in the 1408 Movie, felt the same way. There is an afterlife, there are other dimensions and all realms can be breached.
Releasing on June 22, 2007 is the 1408 Movie.
