I really can't say enough good things about this movie, as I love psychological horror. Especially a film that's done well and keeps you guessing till the very end. This is one of those rare tales that definitely sends a chill up and down your spine.

Several towns in Texas have been plagued by a serial killer and the killer leaves notes referring to himself as "God's Hands". Fenton Meeks (Matthew McConaughey) shows up at FBI headquarters to see the agent in charge of the God's Hands murders. Fenton tells Agent Wesley Doyle (Powers Boothe) that he knows who the killer is and he says it's his younger brother, Adam.

Fenton begins to tell Agent Doyle the story of his childhood and about how the killings started with his father (Bill Paxton) in 1979. Late one night, Fenton's father come to his two young sons and told them how he had a vision from God. An angel (the angel looks suspiciously like the figure on the top of a sports trophy) visited him and the angel said that they were to work for God from now on.

The angel tells their Dad that the end of the world is coming and that the devil has put demons here on earth for the final battle. It's going to be their family's job to kill the demons for God and they would be given "magic" weapons to kill the demons with. The weapons turn out to be an axe, a pair of leather work gloves, and a lead pipe. God would send lists of the names of demons and where to find them. The demons would look human but when they touched the demons God would show them the demons sins, not to mention that God would blind any witnesses that saw them trying to capture the demons.

Young Fenton (Matt O'Leary), doesn't believe any of it and Adam (Jeremy Sumpter) seems to believe it all. Adam says he can see the demons sins when their Dad touches them while Fenton wants to stop his Dad from killing again but he doesn't know how. Is Dad crazy? Will Fenton be able to stop him? Check this one out for yourself to find out for yourself, I guarantee a big surprise awaits you.

I have to say that I really enjoyed this movie. More often than not, Bill Paxton annoys me to no end and I haven't seen many films that I've liked him in. He did do a good job with this one though as he plays a loving father and honestly believes he's doing God's work. This movie hits on a lot of different levels with me and it brings up questions that most people really don't like to think about. In this society, we have topics and ideas that we automatically put the "insanity" label on. Most people never stop to consider that there is a whole realm of possibility that we haven't even thought of. We are taught that only if we can see it and touch it, it's real. I like the idea that there is more to this world than the tangible. It's what draws people to horror and stories of the supernatural. The whole question of "what if" that makes us look for the things that go bump in the night.

This movie is a great example of that thought, the thought of what's real or not. You find yourself questioning the motives of each character, would you believe someone if they told you God asked them to kill demons? You can see and feel the loss of innocence and the kids who played Adam and Fenton did an excellent job. The whole story depends on them being believable and they played their parts well.

Picture quality was excellent, it had a great gothic feel to it. There were scenes where the lighting was perfect for the feelings the filmmakers were trying to convey, and there were scenes that were filmed in low light that stayed clear and you didn't have to squint to see the details in the shot. The sounds was pretty stable as well, I had to play with it a little in the beginning because the music was to loud and the dialogue was to soft but it evened out about ten minutes into the film.

The special features consisted of a trailer, production and crew commentaries, The Making of Frailty, Anatomy of a scene, deleted scenes, a photo gallery, and some storyboards. They are all worth a look if you're interested in seeing what exactly went into making the movie.

Overall I thought Frailty was a lot of fun. It moves along at a brisk pace and has enough twists and turns to keep you guessing till the very end. This isn't a gory movie, by any means so if you're looking for a lot of blood you might want to pass. However, If you like the psychological aspects of horror, then be sure to check this one out.
