Bill Paxton’s Frailty is getting a 4K UHD release

Frailty, Bill Paxton’s striking directorial debut — now in chilling 4K for the first time — is a fantastic movie. It’s great to hear that it’s getting a 4K release. It includes a printed reproduction of director Bill Paxton’s complete original shooting script, with handwritten notes throughout*

The film centers on the God’s Hand Killer, who terrorized a small Texas community with his axe-wielding butchery. Years after the murders, Fenton Meiks (Matthew McConaughey) walks into an FBI office with a shocking revelation: he not only knows who the killer is, but where the bodies are buried. Fenton recounts how his father (Paxton) received an angelic vision commanding the destruction of demons in human form, and enlisted Fenton and his brother, Adam, to aid in the divine purge. What the boys witnessed tested the limits of their minds and souls, fusing family, retribution, and redemption in horrifying, unsettling ways.

The film also stars Powers Boothe, Luke Askew, Jeremy Sumpter and Matt O’Leary.

It is out on 15th July from Lionsgate and you can pre-order it here.

*We were incredibly lucky to have access to Bill Paxton’s original shooting script—a rare and meaningful opportunity that offered a direct window into his creative process. We did our best to preserve the authenticity of the document in this booklet, keeping elements like the upside-down pages and original notes, even when they stretched beyond standard margins. Despite these challenges, we’re thrilled for fans to experience this piece of film history and to witness the care and heart Bill poured into the project.
