This week on Haven’t Seen That in Forever: After Dark, Ben, Nels, and Colin continue spooky season with Bill Paxton’s chilling 2001 directorial debut, Frailty.

When a seemingly ordinary father claims God has commanded him to destroy demons hiding among us, his two young sons are forced to confront a terrifying question: Is their dad carrying out a divine mission, or has he completely lost his mind?

We're digging into Paxton's criminally underrated psychological thriller, its incredible performances, disturbing exploration of faith and morality, and one of the most unforgettable twists in early 2000s horror. Along the way, we debate religious conviction, questionable parenting decisions, and whether this movie deserves a place among the greatest psychological horror films of its generation.

Sometimes the scariest thing isn't finding out your father is crazy. It's finding out he might be right.
