Bill Paxton’s Frailty sets 4K Ultra HD release

June 10, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Lionsgate has announced that Bill Paxton’s acclaimed 2001 directorial debut Frailty is set for a limited edition 4K Ultra HD release this July, arriving on the format for the very first time; check out the cover artwork and details here…

FRAILTY, Bill Paxton’s striking directorial debut — now in chilling 4K for the first time — 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.
