White man from town gets thinner!
4 out of 5 stars
White man from town gets thinner!
There are no real heroes in this story, only bad people who mostly get what they deserve. Billy Halleck (Robert Burke) is the biggest lawyer in town, both by reputation and size. Weighing in at 297 pounds he is already on a diet mandated and monitored by his wife who wants him to lose weight. Billy just won a big lawsuit for his client Richie Ginelli, called Mr. Mafia by Billy's daughter, who is an underworld crime boss. He celebrates the victory with dinner with his wife and while traveling home he is distracted and kills a 75 year old gypsy woman who is in town with a local carnival. Being the biggest lawyer in town and friends with the sheriff and the judge he barely gets into trouble even though he is clearly at fault and lies about what really happened. Knowing the system he manipulates the truth and he doesn't accept the responsibility for his careless driving and actions. He doesn't even get points on his driver's license. After the court hearing the 109 year old gypsy grandfather of the victim touches Billy's face and says one word, "Thinner." Billy begins to quickly lose weight and no matter what he does he is facing death. Everyone involved in the case and the release of Billy including the judge and the sheriff are dying of strange diseases. The common cause seems to be the old gypsy grandfather who touched all those men and said one word to each one. Billy begs forgiveness from the grandfather who tells him that if he doesn't leave the gypsy camp that his curse will get worse. Billy curses the gypsies as the White Man From Town because that is what the gypsies call him. Vengeance turns out to be a pie served cold! This was a good movie if you are a Stephen King fan. I own the DVD and the book and I actually like the book better as it goes into much more detail as books often can do. Both are worth watching and reading and are a good story line and entertaining. If you love Stephen King it is hard to criticize him but this is a good story but not one of his best. It is still 4 stars as some of King's average books are far better than other author's best efforts. This movie contains some foul language and some scenes are gross and spooky. If that is not your type of movie then be warned. I enjoyed this movie and I recommend it to you!

    This movie is so quirky but very realistic.......it's great!! You will love it! Sit back and just enjoy......so many great scenes.....I say the lines all the time in my daily life. Bought this movie for everyone in my family. It's about a lawyer who is cursed by a gypsy man to become thin and die. So he starts to lose weight....no matter what he eats, he can't gain weight. He starts to wither away and will basically die. So he is trying to reason with the old gypsy to remove the curse but he refuses. The guy playing the old gypsy man is great.....I quote him he is so memorable. Anyway, he enlists his friend to help with the gypsies and the movie turns up the heat. This is a great movie to have in your collection.

    Closed captioning is important for the hearing impaired. I had to keep adjusting the volume as I couldn't hear dll the conversations, and then it got super loud in action scenes. But overall, great movie.

    Great movie! It was delivered promptly, just as promised. We watched it right away and it played perfectly. If you like "Law and Order", it's fun to see the main character in "Thinner" as a younger man. I love Stephen King and this is one of my favorite movies made from his stories. A great classic for your collection!
