Cheap Thrills Page #4

Synopsis: Cheap Thrills follows Craig (Pat Healy, Compliance), a struggling family man who loses his low-wage job and is threatened with eviction. In an effort to delay facing the music at home, he heads to a local bar and encounters an old friend (Ethan Embry, Empire Records). The two friends are roped into a round of drinks by a charismatic and obscenely wealthy stranger (David Koechner, Anchorman 2) along with his mysterious wife (Sara Paxton, The Inkeepers). The couple engages the two friends in a series of innocent dares in exchange for money over the course of the evening, with each challenge upping the ante in both reward and boundaries. It seems like easy and much needed money, but the couple's twisted sense of humor pushes just how far Craig and his friend are willing to go for money and cheap thrills. (c) Drafthouse

Okay. To lemlste

Okay. We're getting ready for it.

- I'm sorry. It's too gross.

Okay. We'll put it there.

I count to three.

Okay, are you ready? No, not yet!

They're here somewhere.

Like that, it's over.

I hope it hurt.

Holy sh*t! Are you all right, Craig?

Come on.

Come on, drop arm.

Give me your hand!

Come on, do it! Do it!

- What are you waiting for?

That's it, damn it!

F***, you did it! How does it feel to be

15,000 richer?

Do me a favor.

Let me see them. I want to see them.

It is not a service.

You've earned.

Hell, yes. Holy sh*t.

Damn. It was too wild.

Hello.

Where is my finger?

- Oh, no. The dog is dead.

- What the hell?

How did that happen?

- Oh, no. What the hell?

- It was nipped in Craig's finger.

I got this.

Look at him.

I'll be damned.

It's too weird.

It will be hard to

get it chews sewn back on.

You are a giant a**hole.

Yes.

- I did not steal 25,000 from a friend.

- I need the money.

For my family.

You had fired them off on

hookers and dope. I know you.

- I know you too, Craig.

- I'm not like that anymore.

I have a responsibility. I have a life.

The air you're pulling, going to waste.

You're a f***ing loser, Vince.

I know.

I know that I'm a loser.

I've always known

but you surprise me, Craig.

Your parents love you

and took care of you.

They sent you to college.

See how it's been you.

$ 50,000, it is well

more than a rsln for you?

Consider it. A lot of concerns

This is pure psychology.

It can easily get over.

Okay, dammit. I see.
