Cold in July
When suburban dad Richard Dane kills a night‑time intruder, his heroic act spirals into a deadly cat-and-mouse game as the burglar’s ruthless father arrives for vengeance, forcing Richard to protect his family while confronting an unseen threat that threatens to destroy everything he holds dear.
“How many men can one bullet kill?”
Synopsis
In 1989, during a balmy Texas night, Richard Dane shoots a burglar in the head after hearing noises in his house. Though he is praised as a small‑town hero, Dane later becomes concerned for his family’s safety when the burglar’s ex‑convict father arrives in town seeking revenge.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 36
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
