Thinner
After a long struggle for a lawyer named Billy Halek obese, one day he collides with a car where one of the gypsies accidentally hit his car. Billy discovers that he has lost weight very quickly and seems to be wondering when it happens in a very short period of time. Billy discovers that this is the curse of the Gypsies who insisted on punishing him in a story that is the worst in Billy's life, but which may be in his favor someday.

Mediocre Steven King adaptation. Interesting horror idea in light of society's obsession with dieting, but really just another horror movie.

A constantly absorbing little chiller directed by the underrated Tom Holland (Fright Night, Child's Play).

The film isn't scary and it isn't funny. What it is, is dull.

Thinner continues in a kind of cartoony vein, almost making fun of itself as it goes along, but not exactly getting any laughs.
