Checking Out (1988)

Nine out of ten doctors say Ray is perfectly healthy. But what do they know?

Directed by David Leland1h 36mComedy

When his best friend dies of a heart attack, Ray Macklin becomes a man obsessed with his own mortality. Convinced that all his aches and pains are an indication of his imminent death, Ray's life turns into a slapstick farce of health-crazed anxiety and hypochondria.
