Cold Comes the Night

Cold Comes the Night is a 2013 American crime thriller film directed by Tze Chun, who co-wrote the script with Oz Perkins and Nick Simon.

They stop by Chloe's motel, when Quincy hires prostitute Gwen, and convinces Topo to stay the night.

He tries to play down what has happened but Chloe tells him she will not allow his girls to use the rooms in her motel anymore, as a social worker was around earlier threatening to take Sophia away.

Back at the motel, Chloe learns more about Topo and figures out that he is a courier who is supposed to deliver bundles of money.

She proposes to Topo that they split the money if she helps him recover it and he reluctantly agrees due to his impairment.

When Billy is strangling Chloe, she manages to push him off and he crashes through a glass door, fatally slicing his neck.

Chloe sets the scene to look like a deal gone bad, and takes Sophia into a taxi to parts unknown.

The film was shot over 22 days in October and November 2012 in Windham, Cairo, and East Durham in Greene County, upstate New York.

The website's critics' consensus reads, "Despite strong performances from Bryan Cranston and Alice Eve, Cold Comes the Night is undone by a series of illogical plot twists.
