Movie Reviews of Thinner

Movie Review: Enjoyable film
Summary: 4 Stars

This is not one of the best movies based off a Stephen King book, but it certainly does have its merits. It's fun to watch how fatty boy Billy starts losing all the weight, and how so thin he looks near the end. This is a story that has no monsters or nightmares or anything - just a gypsy curse. It makes you wonder, if Billy had even just given a verbal apology to the gypsy, he might have averted the curse in the first place. Same with his two buddies who also got cursed. This is what happens when you help your friends avoid punishment for something bad he did :P This movie is fairly enjoyable, if you liked the book, you'll like the movie.

Movie Review: Curses?Wow!
Summary: 4 Stars

For once,a movie that can prove you dont have to go on a diet to be thin.Robert John Burke plays Billy Halleck,an overweight lawyer who makes the mistake of hitting an old gypsy woman during a little pleasurable activity.LOL. However,when he is found not guilty,a curse is put upon him.Soon,he finds that he is rapidly losing weight and discovers he has a gypsy curse on him.With the help of his friend,Richie,he sets out to find the gypsy who put the curse on him,before he is permenently thin. I recommend this film to any Stephen King fan

Movie Review: Well I liked it...
Summary: 4 Stars

Let me just start of by saying that I am a huge fan of both stephen kings, and horror movies. This however really isn't scary. However it did have a few scary parts. just be warned: this is not your average stephen king movie...but its still really good.

By the way...why do people give movies bad ratings if they have crappy special features? I don't know about everyone else, but I buy my movies for the movie, not for the extra stuff!


Movie Review: Thinner (1996)-Good Stephen King
Summary: 4 Stars

Thinner (1996) was a three to four star DVD with excellent special effects, a good story and fine performances. It was a little over the top which is nothing new for Stephen King. Over 7 sets of full body make up of one type or another were required to make the transition from 300 to 112 pounds look credible. A short on The Magic of Special Effects was also included documenting this work.

Movie Review: creepy
Summary: 4 Stars

This Movie is outstanding, in so many ways. The stars make you stay at the edge of your seat. Especially Joe Mantegna, and Michael Constantine. always something new around the corner. I would recommend to family and friends.
