Here is Durner's take on Thinner:
Thinner is by far the best gypsy curse movie that this reviewer has ever seen. The plot is incredibly original and captivating. The performances are dynamic and enthralling. The special effects are impeccable and flawless. This films is proof of why Stephen King truly is a master of the macabre and brings the genre of gypsy curses to a whole new level.

So I am now required to watch this movie again and see -- what in the world did I miss?
Anyone else out there think this was a great film? Beuller. . . Beuller. . .
Well as someone who's only glimpsed the movie and barely skimmed the book I am in no position to judge.
ReplyDeleteI will say however that as far as curses go, give me objects or artifacts such as monkey hands or magic rings that while seemingly inanimate nonetheless possess a malevolent ill will all their own.
Either that or George Carlin's mythic seven.
"Thinner" is a terrible movie. TERRIBLE.
