Writing as Richard Bachman, Stephen King's Thinner has always stuck with me as one of his most chilling and decidedly bleak novels, so it's especially thrilling to see that Tom Holland's 1996 adaptation of Thinner is coming to Blu-ray in a new Collector's Edition from Scream Factory that's brimming with bonus features, including an interview with Holland, two new audio commentaries, and much more!
Press Release: On January 23, 2024, Scream Factory™ will unleash the horror thriller THINNER Collector’s Edition on Blu-ray. This definitive collector’s edition release includes new audio commentary with producer Mitchell Galin and actor Joe Mantegna, new audio commentary with film critic and historian Lee Gambin and novelist Aaron Dries, new interviews with director Tom Holland, and actor Lucinda Jenney, and much more! Loyal fans and collectors, THINNER Collector’s Edition Blu-ray is available for pre-order now at ShoutFactory.com.

Based on the riveting best seller, Stephen King's Thinner stars Robert John Burke (RoboCop 3) and Joe Mantegna (House Of Games) in a story of supernatural terror as one man faces a countdown to the ultimate excruciating payback. A 109-year-old Romani man (Michael Constantine, My Big Fat Greek Wedding), hell-bent on revenge for the death of his daughter, exacts a shocking curse that compels its victim to gorge himself in an effort to avoid shrinking away to nothingness. With time running out from this bizarre and relentless torture, the accursed man must find a way to reverse his predicament, though death is quickly becoming his only option.
