Line 121:
* [[Trash the Set]]: {{spoiler|After Mike seems to have escaped from 1408 and lived a week or so of his normal life, he goes to the post office to deliver a letter, and suddenly all the employees start destroying the place, to reveal 1408 beneath it.}}
* [[The Un-Reveal]]: In spades. {{spoiler|We never learn what the room is, who sent the postcard, or whether Enslin really escaped.}}
* [[Up to Eleven]]: Near the end of the film, you think the room has done its worst to Enslin--tricking him into thinking that {{spoiler|he had actually been out of the room for ''weeks'' before bringing him right back}}. Then it does [[Died in Your Arms Tonight|that thing with Katie]], and you can't possibly imagine it doing ''anything'' more horrible than that, as Enslin looks like [[Despair Event Horizon|a textbook example of a broken man.]] Then it {{spoiler|rewinds to the beginning and tells him he can relive the experience over and over and over...}}<br /><br /> {{spoiler|And then the theatrical release has his wife overhearing their daughter's voice on the tape at the end of the movie, begging to be allowed to stay with her parents, before the room reclaims her.}} Remember this was the ending the studio forced so it wouldn't be such a [[Downer Ending]].

* [[Yank the Dog's Chain]]:
** {{spoiler|Enslin is waiting for the clock to count down to zero, thinking then that he'll be safe. [[Complete Monster|Then the clock starts up again at 60 minutes]]}}.
