The Good Stuff: Episode 1
FRAILY is a great film worthy of "classic" status. Unfortunately, I think it was a victim of unfortunate release date timing...
I remember watching 'Frailty', even now the last scene from the movie sticks out in my mind- The one where he is looking at the camera.(I believe that was the last scene, coincidently that is when I finally understood the twist) And it was a great watch, I intently watched it for the duration after my family rented it. I must of been 11 or 12, and all the M. Knight craze died down, the "twist-ending" was pretty new to me and that is possibly why the movie sticks out in my mind. I had not seen 'Signs' or 'The 6th sense' or the other film you described, and still haven't to this day. But I remember Frailty vividly- and it still creeps me out. A good watch regardless, thanks for reminding me.
Sorry I'm so slow in responding to this, but thanks, Kaitlyn. Glad it brought back some memories for you. You may be a bit young for the next video to illicit memories, however. I hope you're doing well. You did tell me that you're staying at MCA, correct?
