Fox is a keen photographer. A bonus disc released with The Complete First Series of Lost includes features "The Art of Matthew Fox", showing pictures he took of the cast and crew while on set.

On August 28, 2011, Fox was reported to have punched a female bus driver in the chest and pelvic area after he attempted to board a party bus reserved for a private bachelor party outside of Christie's Cabaret in Cleveland, Ohio. On September 16, 2011, a spokeswoman for the city of Cleveland announced that prosecutors had decided not to charge Fox. A civil suit related to the alleged incident has been filed. In October 2012, Fox appeared on The Ellen Show and dismissed all accusations as false, stating he could not refute them at the time due to the ongoing legal case.

On May 6, 2012, Fox was arrested for driving under the influence in Oregon. He was taken into custody and released that same day. On June 1, 2012, Fox's lawyer entered a plea of no contest to one count of DUI in Deschutes County Circuit Court and stated that they will move forward with a diversion program to avoid criminal charges.

The film takes place in the 1890s, with 2 men, one younger and the other much older, attacking and killing travelers camping in plains of the Wild West. After killing several men at a campsite by slitting their throats open, they steal their valuables and begin burning unneeded books and possessions. However, they desist after hearing a bizarre series of howls in the distance, and make for a nearby valley to avoid any pursuers. While traversing the valley, they come across a burial site, where the older man is attacked and savagely killed by an unseen figure. The younger man fires upon the figure as it charges at him, and the film cuts to black.

Les humains sont infectés par des zombies. Deux hommes une femme et sa petite fille survivent tant bien que mal. Quelques années plus tard, la Terre semble condamnée à un hiver perpétuel, la petite fille est une pré-adolescente, sa mère est morte et elle ne se souvient pas l'avoir connue. Les deux hommes ne s'adressent plus la parole, bien que vivant dans deux maisons voisines, et le récit reconstitue peu à peu leur histoire et les raisons de leur brouille, alors que les zombies, que l'on croyait avoir disparu, refont surface, sous une nouvelle forme : ils ont des griffes, des dents acérées, ne craignent pas le froid mais sont désormais aveugles et, apparemment, non-contagieux.

Brigadier-General Bonner Fellers is sent to Japan as a part of the occupation force. He is tasked with arresting Japanese war criminals, including Prime Minister Tojo. Before he departs, he meets his Japanese interpreter, Takahashi. Fellers privately orders him to locate his Japanese girlfriend, Aya Shimada. After managing to arrest Tojo after his attempted suicide, Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, General of the Army Douglas MacArthur informs Fellers that Emperor Hirohito can be tried as a war criminal. By doing so, the Allied forces would enrage the Japanese and they would face open revolt; but by deposing the Emperor, the Soviets would enter Japan and spread communism. However, the American people want the Emperor to stand trial for Japan's actions during the war. MacArthur gives Fellers ten days to investigate the Emperor. The next day, Takahashi informs Fellers that Aya's apartment in Tokyo was bombed. Fellers orders him to investigate her hometown, Shizuoka.
