Edge of Fear (2018) Movie Script

1
Mr. Dwyer, how are
you feeling now?
Like an elephant is
sitting on my chest.
We're taking you to the
catheterization lab
to open your blocked arteries.
You've just had a heart attack.
I thought I had died
and was talking to an angel.
You're very much alive.
You are my doctor, right?
One of them.
Well?
American Business
man, 45 years old...
maybe 90 minutes ago...
Looks bad.
Thank you.
Hello.
Hey, I'm Dr. Ling. Can you talk?
Hey! Wake up!
We're losing him. Charge the paddles.
Clear.
Clear.
Clear.
Clear.
Give me Oxygen.
Prep him for surgery.
My angel.
You know, my wife won't
let my boy play football.
I mean, he's damn
near eight years old,
he ain't a goddamn baby.
What? You on her side?
I'm talkin' football, man.
Boys gotta play football.
Nowadays, kids can't do anything
without runnin' around with a helmet on
and a bottle of hand sanitizer.
Shit, it's always something.
What you got? Ah, Shit.
Our tax dollars
at work, am I right?
Gary, hey, you're not
a Democrat, are you?
Uh?
Hey, man. Are you...
Gary, you OK?
I'm sorry.
Jesus!
The fuck, Gary?
Bang!
Keys.
Hey, everybody, Mr. Victor Novak.
This is Gina.
Keith, the driver.
Nick.
You remember Worm?
Thank you.
The rest of them?
You're gonna love this.
Uh, Worm?
What are you doing, man?
What are you doin'?
Come on, man.
We can all make it out of this OK.
Come on, man!
No!
That's how you do it.
Get us outta here.
What about him?
Don't worry about him.
Hey, no.
Now, I did what you wanted.
You said I'd see my family again
if I did what you wanted.
Your family's gonna be fine, Gary.
And you'll see them again.
In hell.
You'd rather him run to the police
and rat us out in 10 minutes?
I'd rather you don't
make promises
unless you intend to keep them.
Karma.
Karma.
With all due respect, Mr. Novak,
I know you're a big shot in Mexico.
But until you get there,
I'm gonna ask you
to please show the proper respect
to the people who just saved you
from 25 to life.
Look, I thank you for all your help
but your crew answers to you
and you answer to me.
Respect that.
I respect your money.
Stubborn little fucker.
Take care of that, Worm.
In the van.
Let's go, your highness,
get in the van.
No, no, no, no, no! Come on, man!
Are you fucking kidding me?
You gotta be kidding me.
- Karma, Jack.
- Goddamn it.
All right, calm down.
Here's what we're gonna do.
I'm gonna call Charlie
and have him send us another van.
- What's wrong?
- No signal.
Oh, great, what do we do now?
We get off the road
and we take a hike.
Worm, get rid of it.
Mike is so kind to
invite us here for the weekend.
That's for sure!
It's such a nice place.
I'm glad you like it.
Uh...
Honey...
He invited me to go hunt with him.
- Hunt?
- Mm-hmm.
You?
Get some fresh air.
You should go.
All right.
See you later.
Be careful!
Oh, man,
your mother is beggin' for grandkids.
Nuh-uh.
We're still in the honeymoon phase.
Come on, you guys have been married
for four years, right?
Actually, two.
Oh!
You sound just like Laura.
Her clock is ticking.
Shh!
Look, right there.
You see it?
Bingo bango.
Come on.
Sorry, my friend.
Ah!
Here we go.
Yeah.
Oh! Hey...
Look at that.
Now that is a nice shot. Uh?
Oh, no, listen, man,
it was either him or us.
Woah!
What the fuck was that, right?
Straight through the heart.
It actually plugged up the wound.
As long as whatever goes in,
doesn't come out.
It could've lived a while longer.
All right. Let's grab a leg.
Hey, guys.
How was it...
Hey.
Laura, are you OK with seeing this?
This would be a slow day in the ER.
Well, you know if you wanna grill it,
you gotta kill it, right?
Jesus, it's endless.
This was supposed to be
a quick score, man.
Shut up.
You OK, baby?
He's excited about Mexico
and those young seoritas.
Or are you just happy to be outside?
Must have been rough
in there, six years.
Figured, with all that money,
would've had a smart-ass lawyer
who would've gotten you out.
Wait, I forgot,
didn't wanna cop a plea.
Too much integrity.
Integrity.
Honey?
Still showering?
Hurry up.
I'll wait for you downstairs.
Huh!
Not bad.
Happy weekend.
Haven't asked me about karma history.
We've been doing really good.
I thought we might
be pals by now, Vic.
Let's go make friends.
I know you've explained
this to me a thousand times,
but what the hell is a hedge fund?
OK.
Basically, it's a bunch
of investors who make
bets with other people's money.
So, you're the kind
of guy who sees
Wolf of Wall Street as
a hero's journey.
- Oh, man, come on, here we go.
- All right. All right.
I'm gonna spare you with my
liberal browbeating this time.
Um...
What is the most you've
lost in one day?
Ooh...
Two point eight million.
Bad day.
Wow!
- Could you imagine?
- No.
I couldn't do it.
Yeah, but if you've got the stones
to stare down that kind of day,
the rewards are incredible.
- Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm.
Do you really love being a doctor?
The grinding hours,
the malpractice insurance,
smug business men who think you're
overpaid for saving their lives,
Was I overpaid?
Well, you know, if I remember
correctly, you weren't paid at all.
You wouldn't take my money.
But I took your friendship.
You saved my life.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
And look at my life now, right?
I mean, please, this place is heaven.
It is.
But I really believe we're here
to help others.
Keep that idealism.
I appreciate you guys
coming here this weekend.
I mean, all of this really means
nothing without your friends, right?
You won't accept anything.
But please allow me to gift something
to your wife, OK? Just...
Mike...
- There you go. For you.
- Wow!
Wow!
This is... beautiful.
- Thank you, I made it myself.
- Beautiful. Really.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
To my favorite idealists.
May God bless you and
your beautiful wife.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Cheers.
Well, that must be
a noise complaint, you know.
You guys gotta keep
it down, all right.
We don't want any.
Not selling any.
Ah!
So sorry to disturb you.
See, hell of a place for a breakdown,
I've been walking
for the last couple of hours
trying to find a phone.
- Just take a minute.
- You don't have a cellphone?
No. Uh-huh. Old-fashioned guy.
Oh. Well,
where did you say you were going?
I didn't. Florida. Vacation
Ah. Where are you from?
Up north. Yankee.
Yankee.
Well, you know, our service here
is in and out,
but they have call boxes
up and down the highway.
Yeah, I tried a few of those.
No luck.
They do make awfully good bird nests,
though.
I waited around to see
if anybody was gonna come by,
after about an hour,
a truck driver showed up,
rode right on by.
Oh...
I guess it's every man for himself
out here, isn't it?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Well, all right, look, I...
I won't cause any trouble,
so don't worry about it.
I'm sure I'll find another place
a few miles down the road.
- Just keep on walking.
- OK.
Mike.
- Yeah?
- Everything OK?
Yeah, you know what? I'm sorry.
You can use my phone. Come on in.
Ah, that's great. Thank you.
Really appreciate this.
Oh, you don't mind my pals come in
and take a load off, do you?
They've been walking for quite while.
Uh...
- Hi.
- Well...
Oh, my shit.
- I'm sorry, I didn't get your name.
- It's Mike.
Mike Dwyer.
Mike. Jack.
Yep. Jack.
Right. You're not from around here,
are you?
We've come from China.
Who are you? What's your name?
I'm gonna get you a phone.
Name?
Name?
What's your name?
Laura.
My wife.
Enchanted.
- He likes her.
- Lucky girl.
- There's no car, Jack.
- What?
Nothin', man.
Where's your ride, Mike?
We don't have a car, Jack.
My assistant dropped us off
for the weekend.
A girl by the name of Cindy.
She'll be pickin' us up
tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m.
And she's very precise.
Hey, Charlie.
You're supposed to
answer when I call you.
I don't like leaving messages.
We got a change of plans.
I need you to come get us.
Call me back ASAP.
Hey, excuse me,
can I get you guys something?
Got any cigarettes?
No, no. I don't smoke cigarettes.
What about these?
You know my...
My father got these for me as a gift.
So I'm kinda saving them
for a special occasion.
Gifts are meant to be shared.
Not bad at all.
Not bad at all.
I don't scare you, do I?
I don't scare easily.
I'm a doctor.
It's just, the mountain air,
it's bringing out the animal in me.
Hello, Charlie?
Yeah.
Yeah, we had a little snafu.
Yeah, we'll have to go
with a contingency plan.
Yep.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right. Send out the other van.
Yeah, hold on.
Mike?
Hey, where are we at?
Mile marker 201.
Tell them to take the Conyers.
Cut off is a little tricky.
You catch that? Mile marker 201.
Yeah. Said it gets
a little hinky there, so...
A couple hours?
Come on, man.
Yeah.
Yeah. I'm sure we'll
find something to do.
Hey, come to think about it,
either of you guys got a cellphone
I could borrow.
I gotta text my old lady.
She worries.
Come on, it's important.
Mine doesn't work here in the US.
Well, let's hope nobody important
tries to get a hold of you then.
Let's keep looking for that car.
There's no car, man.
So, which one of you
is the money behind this place?
My bet is on the little Chinaman.
No? Oh, it's the big one.
Damn, he's got the size and the cash.
You're just the shit
that's left over.
Like the movie.
- Twins!
- Twins!
You're Danny DeVito.
- Whoops.
- You klutz.
Hey, you know what?
Don't worry about it.
I'll take care of it.
Mike, it's fine. We can handle it.
Look, it's all right, man.
I'm just gonna go get a broom
from the garage, OK?
No, no. Don't.
I apologize for my associates.
She'll be out of here soon.
Good news. Our ride's on the way.
In just a few short hours,
it'll be like we were never here.
I know that's not ideal
but we can compensate you
with our good company.
I'm sorry
but that's not going to work for us.
So you made you call?
Please, leave.
Patrick.
It's gonna be a couple of hours.
Now, we could spend that time
standing by that empty highway
that seems to be about a mile
from your long and winding road
or we could spend it here with a
bottle of wine and a pretty lady.
Some good old-fashioned conversation.
How's that sound?
That's all you want?
And then you will leave?
Scout's honor.
We don't really have a choice,
do we, Jack?
Well, you always have
a choice, Mikey.
OK, if we're reasonable,
then you will be reasonable.
I am an exceedingly reasonable man.
So, let me get this straight.
In a few hours, you'll leave
and go on your vacation
because all of you
are on vacation together, right?
Vacation's better with friends.
Waste her, Jack!
- Fuckin' A.
- Don't move!
Don't fucking move!
Now, get the fuck out of my...
Christ, Worm. Does it always
have to be a headshot with you?
This isn't going well, Jack.
All right.
Keith, Nick, take care of him.
It's your fault, you know.
I wanted to have a nice,
quiet evening.
Now, from the time we got in here,
I knew you would be trouble.
You couldn't just relax
and go with the flow.
You had to be a pain in the ass.
Sassy broad like you
needs to be put in her place.
Looky. Looky.
You see this?
You did this.
It's gonna be OK.
Bring me that bitch.
Look at that. You see that?
I want you to remember that.
Jack! Can't stop the bleeding!
You said you were a doctor, right?
You do ER? Trauma?
Hey, hey.
Stay with me, pretty girl.
I know this sucks...
but you see that guy over there?
He didn't have anything to do
with what went down.
Now, technically speaking,
you were the one who shot him.
I'm no doctor, but I know
there's an oath that says do no harm.
And I'd say a bullet to a man's thigh
constitutes harm.
So don't help him on my account,
you can hate my guts,
but you help him
because it's the right thing to do.
And if he dies,
you die.
I'm gonna need some alcohol, gauze
and things to stitch with.
Well, all right, then.
We might just salvage
this day after all.
Keith, drag Mr. Patrick
to the garage.
And the rest of you guys,
calm the fuck down.
Gross.
Sorry, bro.
Hey.
Hey.
Are you in there?
Oh...
There you are.
Oh, fuck!
Thank you for this.
Thank you for your steady hand.
Was Patrick your...
Don't you dare say his name.
These people...
They are not my people.
In Mexico, I would have
been able to handle
this differently, but here I...
My influence...
only extends so far.
Other... resources
had to be employed.
All of this happened...
because of you.
There's nothin' online.
That rock quarry's 100 feet deep.
By the time they find that bus,
we'll be balls deep in margaritas.
Charlie's gonna be here in an hour.
You know, a little fucking gratitude
would go a long way.
My gratefulness is endless.
My patience is not.
You're no better than me.
You think you are.
But we're both killers.
You have no appreciation
for this life, Jack.
And you never have.
Don't lecture me.
Do you believe in God?
Do you?
No.
But I want to.
Hey, they got some vinyl.
Anybody wanna listen to some music?
Pryor, somebody's home.
Take care of that fuckin' noise.
Keith better not be fuckin' with us.
- Keith!
- Seriously?
At least, he found a sheet.
Look, he's probably strung out
in the woods somewhere.
Why don't you let me make a call?
I got family here.
We're sticking to the plan.
That's why it's called the plan.
Charlie's on his way.
Keith!
Everything OK?
- Yeah, it's OK.
- Cool.
You mind if we take a
five-minute break?
Duty calls, guys.
Some people got no class.
Speak Spanish to me.
Talk to me.
- Si.
- Si?
- Si...
- Si.
You gonna ride me?
Gonna show you what a
real cowboy can do.
Yeah? Yeah.
Fuck!
Ah, mami, yes mami!
Hey!
Nope! Not there!
It is not your birthday.
Goddamn it.
Why do I have to go through this
every single goddamn time with you?
Why do you have to be such a prude?
Why do you have to be...
You're all talk. You're all talk!
You're a pig.
Gina? Gina.
Gina, open up.
Gina, don't you fuckin'
leave me like this.
Gina!
Fine. Go fuck yourself!
I will go fuck myself! Fuck you.
I left my clothes!
I'm sorry,
I just want to save my wife.
Please. Help me.
You're a woman.
Can you imagine what my wife
is going through right now?
What they would do to her?
It's OK.
I'll make this fast.
So, I'm a woman?
You think that makes me soft?
You think I'll just do your bidding?
Like every other piece-of-shit man
on this planet?
What do you think now,
you little maggot?
Gina, listen, it's me. I'm comin' in.
Oh, so, it's like that now?
You won't even talk to me,
when I'm trying to say I'm sorry?
Listen, I... I know I'm fucking up.
I just can't handle
what you do to me sometimes.
You know? You're equal parts guilty
about this shit.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I... I don't
mean to deflect the blame here.
I'm just...
Just give me something.
A little something, maybe?
Let me hear your voice.
Woman, you better say something to me
or I'm gonna knock this door down.
I won't have you
disrespect me like this.
Well, that's it, I'm comin' in.
You know just how to hurt me,
you know that?
Nope. I'm done with this bitch.
I mean it this time.
I'm fucking done with her!
What am I doing wrong?
I treat her nice. I buy her shit.
What? That's not enough?
Answer me!
You're just like her.
You're just like her.
We're going to hell, Worm.
You and me.
It's a price to pay
for all the shit we do.
I, I wasn't gonna kill her.
I just, just wanted to scare her.
I just wanted to scare you.
Sorry.
Hey, don't be sad.
He's in a better place now.
He's in the garage.
Can I get a drink please?
Woah!
Look who's comin' around.
To bitches.
Gotta love 'em.
To Patrick.
Who was just like you.
Always wondered if I
loved him enough.
I do. I did.
I should have said it
more often, I think.
To my husband.
Who never hurt anybody in his life.
Who's nothing but a
good, sincere man.
Jesus, lady,
are we gonna drink or what?
I just want to say I love him
and miss him very much.
Cheers.
You want another drink?
No.
- No.
- Really?
I'm OK. Yeah.
- Are you sure.
- Yes, I'm OK.
I mean, you just seemed
really interested in the bottle.
Doesn't she seem interested
in the bottle, Worm?
Let me... Let me try to figure out
what you're interested in.
Mmmm.
Is it perhaps...
this?
No. No. No.
If you want it that much,
here you fucking go.
- No, no!
- No, don't "hey" me!
This bitch is trying to get us drunk
to fucking shoot us!
- No, I wasn't. I swear.
- You think I'm stupid?
The old man is fine.
She already stitched him up.
Let's just fucking take care of her
right now.
I'm distraught.
- I don't know what do.
- What the fuck!
I don't know what I was thinking.
I just wanna live.
I just wanna live.
I just wanna survive.
Man. Get, get off of me.
Yeah, whatever.
Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai.
Think you've had enough.
Yeah. You're probably right.
But it's been a long fucking day.
Well, that burns.
Relax, Worm. You ain't my mom.
Now, my mom...
That was one tough as
nails ball-buster.
God rest her soul.
Well, this...
This stuff repeats in you.
Just need a little water.
The fuck?
What the hell happened?
What's wrong with him?
He was drinkin' too much, he...
He's dead.
This ain't whiskey.
Where's everybody else?
Would you do me the favor
of keeping an eye on her.
What happened here? I know you know.
I don't know.
He can't still be...
Is Patrick behind this?
Please let me go.
He's dying and I could save him.
This is your only chance to help us.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I know I've caused you
a great deal of pain...
but I've got a family too.
I can't risk it.
Sorry.
You're not sorry.
You're worse than them.
Gina?
The fuck is goin' on?
You find that little son of a bitch.
Think your pussy husband's
gonna be able to save you?
Seems like he's doing
a pretty good job so far.
You little bitch.
I'm gonna take you down to Mexico
and sell your skinny ass to mis amigos.
Those boys down there,
they have a real case of yellow fever.
You know what they call rich bitches
like you down there?
Puta.
Don't... blame her.
You did this. All of this.
She's paid enough of for one day.
I say when it's enough.
I lost 'em.
Well, he couldn't have gotten far.
Put me on speaker.
Patrick.
Oh, Patrick.
Patrick.
What are we gonna do now?
It was so simple before.
And now look at us.
Not that I can blame you.
You seem like a nice guy.
I'm gonna make you a deal.
You come in now,
your wife doesn't have
to endure any more of this.
Enough.
That's enough, Jack.
Shut up.
Patrick, don't be stupid.
It's over.
If I didn't still need you,
I'd kill you right now.
If I didn't need to get paid,
I'd kill you right back.
Patrick.
Patrick.
Patrick.
They...
Patrick.
They... They...
It's over now.
You did your best.
I love you.
I love you more.
I have to go now.
Hey.
Holy shit.
Ah, God!
Argh!
Halle-fuckin'-lujjah.
We're on the move.
Let's get the fuck outta here.
Come on.
You look good on all fours. Let's go.
On your feet, sugar tits.
Hey, Worm, wait a minute.
Why's he staying back there?
Why isn't he coming up here.
Something's wrong.
Charlie!
Worm, go check it out.
He's my ride.
OK, bitch. Get in the van.
Get in there!
Go, Jack!
Leave it, Jack. Leave it.
Tie her up.
Yeah, we're having some fun!
Ain't this exciting?
What about her?
I'll handle her.
What the...
No!
All right. I'm gonna pull this knife
out of you
and then I'm gonna gut
your wife with it.
Nice doing business with ya.
I was never here.
We never saw each other.
Do we have an understanding?
Yes, there's been an accident
on the property of Mike Dwyer.
Highway marker 201.
Send paramedics right away.
Good luck.
Go! Go, leave me!
Just go!
Fire.
Go! Run!
Just go. Just go!
Leave me.
Just go.
Go.
Patrick!
Patrick! Wake up!
Don't sleep.
Look at me.
Look at me!
Patrick!
Hang on! Help's on the way! Patrick!
Look at me. Look at me!
Hang on.
Patrick! Patrick!
Patrick!
Look at me!
Look at me!
This time
These hills
Will march along and forget the kill
Oh, Lord
It's my time
Rest now
Sleep time
Close your eyes
Breathe in the night
Oh, Lord
It's my time
Please, please
Not me
But it's my time
Blinking
Hold the warmth
Hangman
Has eyes of stone
Hold on
It's my time
Were all torn weathered and warm
Feel the breeze that blows
Oh, Lord
It's my time
Please, please
Not me
Please, please
Not me
It's my time
It's my time
It's my time
