Weinstein Co. has set a September 16 Blu-ray date for the Stephen King adaptation 1408, which grossed over $70 million at the domestic box office. Highdefdigest reports that the initial specs are still scarce, though early details indicate a single-disc BD-50 dual-layer presentation with 1080p video and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Surround audio. No word yet on supplements or whether the Blu-ray will include the unrated extended version found on the two-disc standard DVD edition. "1408" is the tale of a debunker of paranormal occurrences (John Cusack) who encounters real terror when he checks into the notorious Room 1408 at the Dolphin Hotel.

ulg. Didn't like this at all. Not even John Cusack could keep the concept from being over tired. The short story (while I haven't read it) obviously didn't have enough material to support a full length movie. And it made the biggest mistake a horror movie could make: it wasn't scary. To many haunted house movies anyway. Bugs me that this did well.
