Let The Curse Fit The Crime.

Another great take on a Stephen king novel! this one directed by Tom Holland, about a rather large, careless man who accidently kills a gypsy with his car due to not paying attention/recieving road head. Placed on him is a curse which makes him thinner, and thinner.. and you get the idea. Before long, Billy Halleck realizes he is not sticking to his diet, yet he is still losing a remarkable amount of weight...daily. After going to a friend of his that has connections with organized crime, the gypsy is forced to reveal how to lift the curse and cure him. The role of Billy was played by a man not too fat nor thin, so he can be molded as both unhealthy thin and fat, good move. I really enjoyed the ending, after all, there is always room for pie.

Henry Halliwell: This diet you're on, what is it? I've tried all the others, I might as well try this one.
Billy Halleck: I don't think you'd like it Henry. In fact, I don't think you'd like it at all.
