Salut, Bill Paxton.

This was recommended to me, and now I'm surprised it passed me by! A great play on the serial killer theme, and hearing voices from God, which many real life killers claim to have experienced. With solid direction from the late Bill Paxton and great acting throughout. And for a more mainstream horror movie, it still packed some serious punches.Salut, Bill Paxton.

A beautiful exploration of what having blind faith means

Frailty is a psychological thriller released in 2001 but definitively one escaped from the 90s, the pacing, narrative and visual style undeniably make it feel like so.The film follows two little boys, the brothers Adam and Fenton Meiks, and their dad (Bill Paxton), a typical family in a small town in Texas, that is until an angel reveals a mission to the father, a holly one, one sent by god himself and that mission is to destroy the evil on Earth, to destroy demons.The greatness of this film rests on the narration style and the multiple plot twists along the way. It's not visually impressive, and the score is nothing to remember; besides a jump scare here and there you will not be frightened while watching this film. However one thing Frailty gets right is storytelling, keeping you on the edge of your seat basically for its entirety.The central theme of Frailty is religion. I find the film to be a beautiful exploration of what having blind faith means and how god works in mysterious ways.Directed by Bill Paxton (his first work as a director), Frailty is, and will continue to be my favorite horror film of all time, and watching it multiple times just make me appreciate it time and time again, but in a different way every time. If you have not watched it, you are missing out big time!
