Cold in July

Richard Dane awakens to find an intruder in his home and has to kill in self-defense. The problem is the intruder's father, Ben Russel, is a murderous ex-con bent on avenging his son's death. Richard, a small-time businessman, is in way over his head. Soon the two find out they're both being misled and manipulated and find themselves drawn into a web of psychopathic sex, violence, and corruption. It turns out that the man Richard killed was not Ben's son. So the two men join forces to learn both the identity of the man Richard shot and the fate of Ben's son.
