Billie Halek is a valuable lawyer who began his life with obesity. After a while, Billy accidentally hits one of the gypsies through his car, then finds out that he has lost weight very quickly and seems to be wondering. Billy discovers that this is the curse of the Gypsies who insisted on losing weight again in a story that is the worst in Billy's life but may be in his favor.

Mediocre Steven King adaptation. Interesting horror idea in light of society's obsession with dieting, but really just another horror movie.January 01, 2000

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