   The creepy "Thinner" is an underrated and one of my favorite horror movies based on a Stephen King's novel. The special effects and make-up were state-of-art in 1996 and even thirteen years later, they are very good. With the exception of Billy'/s daughter, all characters are corrupt in some level and deserve their fate.

   Is Stephen King's thinner a good movie?

   • The only sure thing about Stephen King's Thinner,in the end, is that Stephen King's bank account is fatter. There’s really nothing particularly fresh in this routinely crafted, banally scripted and directed effort. Mantegna’s humorously arrogant performance is the pic’s sole distinctive element, and it’s saved for the finale.

   Is thinner based on a true story?

   • A gypsy curse succeeds where diets don't. Based on an interesting Stephen King novel, THINNER has just enough edge to keep you wide eyed and interested. Michael McDowell's screenplay is faithful to King's story. Billy Halleck (Robert John Burke)is an obese man who is fed up with dieting.

   Is thinner a good book?

   • Thinner is one of the books written under Stephen King’s pseudonym Richard Bachman, and it has the rather dubious honour of being the only book by King that I properly dislike. Short but decidedly not sweet, there’s a viciousness to Thinner that feels unusual to King and makes the reading experience discomforting beyond the usual horror chills.
