Thriller movie
Till death
Emma is unhappily married to her
cold, controlling husband Mark, who works as a criminal attorney. After ending
her affair with Tom, a partner at her husband's firm, Emma goes out with Mark
to celebrate their anniversary. Mark surprises Emma with a necklace made of
steel, then drives her to a secluded lake house that they used to visit early
in their relationship. That evening, Mark apologizes for his past behaviour and
they make love.
The next morning, Emma wakes to find
herself handcuffed to Mark, who abruptly commits suicide by shooting himself in
the head. Forced to drag his corpse everywhere she goes, Emma discovers that
Mark destroyed her phone and removed every sharp item from the house. She
eventually finds the keys to their SUV and reaches the garage. When she starts
the vehicle, the radio plays a taunting message from Mark, revealing he knew of
her affair with Tom. The SUV then dies due to the gas having been siphoned out
by Mark the night before.
Hours later, Tom arrives at the lake
house. He tells Emma that he was summoned by texts from her phone and that Mark
was facing disbarment for illegal activities at his practice. They both realize
that Mark sent the messages to lure Tom just as a mysterious truck is seen
approaching the house. Emma hides while Tom greets a man named Jimmy from the
truck. Jimmy says he's there to fix the plumbing and refuses to leave despite
Tom's attempts to dissuade him. Jimmy's brother, Bobby, then gets out of the
truck and stabs Tom to death. It's revealed Bobby was a stalker who once
attacked Emma and just got out of prison after serving 10 years.
Emma manages to evade the men and
makes it to the boat shed. She uses an anchor to cut herself free from Mark's
corpse and hides just as the men enter the shed. Emma overhears them revealing
Mark hired them to kill her and that they must find the diamonds they were
promised. Bobby suspects the diamonds are in the bedroom safe, which requires
Mark's fingerprints and a code that Emma would know.
As the men search the house, Emma
finds a fuel can and tries refuelling the SUV, but Bobby slashed the tires.
Emma then makes her way to the attic and lures the men there. She knocks Bobby
out with a club and locks Jimmy in a nearby room. She attempts to escape in
Tom's car, but Bobby intervenes. Emma manages to dial 911 on Tom's phone prior
to being knocked unconscious. She later wakes up in the bedroom, once again
cuffed to Mark's body.
Bobby tells Emma the safe's code is
the date Mark proposed to her. When she refuses to cooperate, Bobby threatens
to torture her. Jimmy objects and points Mark's gun at Bobby. Emma agrees to
reveal the code if she is set free first. Emma is uncuffed and she tells them
the code. Bobby opens the safe, only to find a hacksaw inscribed with a clue
that implies the diamonds are in Emma's necklace, which has no latch and is
impossible to remove. Bobby realizes the necklace can only be retrieved by
decapitating Emma. Jimmy tries wrestling the saw away from Bobby, but is
accidentally impaled on a coat hook, killing him. Enraged, Bobby attacks Emma,
stabbing her in the leg. She manages to fight him off and cuff Bobby to Mark's
body.
Emma makes it to the SUV again as
Bobby pursues, dragging Mark with him. She hits Bobby with the car but then
crashes into the boat shed. Emma exits the car and fights Bobby on the frozen
lake. She stabs Bobby in the shoulder just as the ice gives way. Mark's corpse
falls into the lake, dragging Bobby with him. Bobby manages to grab Emma and
pull her in as well. As they sink, Emma grabs the knife out of Bobby's shoulder
and stabs him in the eye. Mark's body drags Bobby down to his death as Emma
swims up to the surface. Lying atop the ice, Emma removes her wedding ring and
lets it roll into the lake as sirens are heard approaching in the background.
