Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.In 1408, John Cusack plays a jaded writer who churns out travel guides to purportedly haunted sites. His next stop is room 1408 of a New York high-rise hotel, a place so terrifying that it's driven 56 guests to suicide.
Adapted from a Stephen King short story, this Hallowe'en yarn nearly qualifies as a horror comedy. The hero and the plot are soon left with nowhere to go, but the early scenes remind us that horror films don't have to be endurance tests. Sometimes they can be fun.
