Sinopsis(1)
Un hombre se presenta en la oficina de Wesley Doyle, el agente del FBI al mando de la búsqueda del famoso asesino de Texas conocido como "La Mano de Dios", y anuncia que conoce la identidad del escurridizo asesino en serie. Se presenta como Fenton Meiks, y afirma que su hermano Adam mató a todas aquellas personas y luego se suicidó. Pero los crímenes son sólo una pequeña parte de una larga historia que Meiks quiere compartir con Doyle, para que entienda que impulsó a su hermano a matar. (Filmax)

Escalofrío es un thriller crudo y una autoparodia involuntaria al mismo tiempo. Bill Paxton no es un director malo, más bien ingenuo. Si la película hubiera sido hecha por Sam Raimi (que tiene un «agradecimiento especial» en los créditos finales), podría haber sido un buen thriller. Así, no es más que una bofetada a quien subestime Señales de Shyamalan como relato de fe.

Incredibly predictable film. There’s something wrong when I can guess every twist well before it happens, but the most disappointing one was the final one; I hoped I had guessed wrong. Unfortunately, that was not the case and the ending ruined all the good stuff that had been built so far – mostly the decent atmosphere and the interesting story. In the end, Frailty is nothing but generic silliness like a lot of other stuff coming from America. That ending is terrible, the three stars are for the part before the twist.

Frailty is a solid directorial effort from Paxton, where he chose an intriguing script and skillfully translated it into a suspenseful film with an engaging story and excellent performances. The film isn't as gritty as it could have been, or rather, it's not as explicit, but that's okay because it still has a very good atmosphere that is oppressive, and most of the time it leaves you wondering if Meiks is crazy or not.

A surprisingly good script with a solid twist, sensational child actors, the standard Bill Paxton, from whom I was expecting more "craziness", and interesting tension in the scenes with Matthew McConaughey and Powers Booth. Frailty isn't worth four pure stars, but I was so impressed by a few really nasty scenes that I'll round the three and a half up. The fact that I'll gladly watch this film again (some time later) is definitely a plus. And it'll be because of its script again.
