Journey into darkness

Cold in July (2014)

Directed by Jim Mickle this film based on the novel of the same name stars Michael C. Hall, Sam Shepard and Don Johnson. Texas 1988, a man accidentally shoots a burglar and finds himself drawn into a strange world of crime.

While this film may seem like a very familiar genre piece to start with if you stick with it you will be rewarded as it wanders off all over the place. I am not sure the plot ever is completely explained or makes sense but this is still a fascinating watch from start to finish. The film is moody and surprising through out with a great pulsating electronic soundtrack.


4/5
