Michael C Hall is an incredible actor as proved in Six Feet Under, then Dexter – but not in Gamer! However, fans of his, like myself, will be pleased to learn that his new film, Cold in July, has premiered at the the Sundance Film Festival but still has yet to get a release date in the UK.
Directed by Jim Mickle and also starring Sam Shepard, Don Johnson and Vinessa Shaw, the film depicts Hall as Richard Dane, a man who has a life-changing moment when a burglar breaks into his house and he kills them. The burglar is the son of a convict, who’s just out of jail, and Dane has to protect his family from the poop that’s about to hit the fan when the ex-con comes calling.
Cold in July is set in 1989 and is a noir thriller, hence the tone of the new poster below, as also released by The Playlist.
