Saw II
2005
(from trailer) John: Hello, Michael. I want to play a game. So far, in what loosely could be called your life, you have made a living watching others. Society would call you an informant. A rat. A snitch. I call you unworthy of the body you possess. Of the life you've been given. Now we will see if you are willing to look inward, rather than outward, to give up the one thing you rely on in order to go on living. The device around your neck is a death mask. The mask is on a string timer. If you do not locate the key in time, the mask will close. Think of it like a Venus Flytrap. What you're looking at right now is your own body, not more than two hours ago. Don't worry, you're sound asleep, and can't feel a thing. Taking into account that you are at a great disadvantage here, I am going to give you a hint as to where I have hidden the key. So listen carefully. The hint is this: It's right before your eyes. How much blood would you shed to stay alive, Michael? Live or die... Make your choice.
Eric Matthews: Where now? (after punching Jigsaw in the face to get directions to the house)
Eric Matthews: (to John) You think cancer is an excuse for what you do?
Laura: You said you three were in jail? Make that four. Jonas: For what? Laura: Does it matter?
Amanda: (Amanda has just revealed herself as Jigsaw's accomplice and has stabbed eric with a syring and chained him to some bathroom chains; we see various flashbacks of Amanda with Jigsaw) What is the cure for Cancer, Eric? The cure for death itself. The answer is immortality. By creating a legacy, by living a life worth remembering, you become immortal. So now we find the tables are turned. It is I who will carry on John's work after he dies, and you are my first test subject. Now you are locked away, helpless and alone. (Appears at door frame) Game Over. (She slams to door shut) Eric Matthews: (Screaming at Amanda) Daniel! Daniel! You Fucking Bitch! I'll Fucking kill you! You Fucking Bitch!... You Fucking Bitch! I'll fucking kill you! Noooooooo, Nooooooo! Help! Nooooo...
Addison: What is this house arrest?
Addison: (Xavier is repeatedly whacking a door with a baseball bat with nails on it - it isn't working, everyone's watching) (sarcastically) Well we've established that the macho bullshit approach isn't opening the door. Any other suggestions? Xavier: (turns round to Addison) Look who's talking, the only door you know how to open is between ya' legs! Addison: (lunges towards Xavier in anger) Why don't you shut the hell up alright! Xavier: (shouting) Why don't you shut the hell up? Addison: (she lunges towards him and they begin fighting) I'm sick of your bullshit. You'd best bend over before I land one on the back of your cheek, asshole. (they begin to fight more, but Jonas steps in and grabs Addison) Get the fuck off me!
(last lines) Eric Matthews: You fucking bitch! I'll fucking kill you! you fucking bitch! I'll fucking kill you! (screams hopelessly)
Eric Matthews: WHERE NOW? (after punching Jigsaw in the van for directions to the house)
(repeated line) John: I want to play a game.
John: Hello, Xavier, I want to play a game. It's similar to the game you play as a drug dealer, the game of giving hope to the desperate. I think we can agree that your situation is desperate, so I'm going to offer you hope. By entering this room, you have started a timer on the door in front of you. When the timer runs out the door will be locked forever, locking away the antidote inside it. If you want to find the key, you will have to crawl through the same squalor that your customers have. I'll give you one hint where to find it. (Xavier and Daniel move a bed frame, revealing a pit full of hypodermic syringes beneath) John: It will be like finding a needle in a haystack. (laughs)
Amanda: The note said not to use the key... !
Xavier: The only door that you've ever opened is between your legs!
Jonas: How do you know all this? Amanda: Because I've played before.
John: X marks the spot.
Laura: That's twice today I woke up in this shithole.
John: Those who do not appreciate life do not deserve life.
John: Those who don't appreciate life do not deserve life. Eric Matthews: My son appreciates his life. John: But do you appreciate yours? Do you appreciate your son's?
John: Can you imagine what it feels like to have someone sit you down and tell you that you're dying? The gravity of that, hmm? Then the clock's ticking for you. In a split second your awe is cracked open. You look at things differently - smell things differently. You savor everything be it a glass of water or a walk in the park. Eric Matthews: The clock is ticking, John. John: But most people have the luxury of not knowing when that clock's going to go off. And the irony of it is that that keeps them from really living their life. It keeps them drinking that glass of water but never really tasting it.
Addison: There's something we're not seeing...
Amanda: Game over.
Amanda: What is the cure for Cancer, Eric? The cure for death itself. The answer is immortality. By creating a legacy, by living a life worth remembering, you become immortal. So now we find the tables are turned. It is I who will carry on John's work after he dies, and you are my first test subject. Now you are locked away, helpless and alone. Amanda: (appears at the door frame) Game over. (slams door shut)
Amanda: By creating a legacy, by living a life worth remembering, you become immortal.
Eric Matthews: You seem to know a whole lot about me. John: I know you were once considered a fearless police officer. Do you feel a whole lot safer now that you only sit behind a desk? Eric Matthews: I feel a whole lot of things right now. John: But you feel alive. That's what you feel, and that's the point.
John: The jigsaw piece that I cut from my subjects was only ever meant to be a symbol that that subject was missing something. A vital piece of the human puzzle. The survival instinct. Eric Matthews: This is all really, really interesting, John. But right now I'd really like for you to talk to me. John: I am talking to you. You're not listening.
Jonas: You remind me of me, always need to find yourself an enemy. I got enemies, outside of these motherfucking walls, man and they looking for me and if they don't find me, they are going after the people who are the closest to me, my family. So you and I can go at each other like we're back at the yard or we can figure out who the fuck is doing this to us.
(from trailer) John: Right now you are breathing in a deadly nerve agent. The only way out is to find an antidote. One is inside the safe. You all possess the combination in the back of your mind. Let the game begin.
John: Since when has force been a problem for you? Why are you so desperate to get your son back? Eric Matthews: 'Cause he's my son... John: What's the last thing you said to him before you left him? Eric Matthews: (flashback) (shouts) Well, then, go! John: Seems to me that the knowledge of your sons impending death is causing you to act... Why is that we're only willing to do that, when a life is at stake? Eric Matthews: I've always loved my son, it has never changed John: No... no... It's changed now. You see, the knowledge of death... changes everything. If I were to tell you the exact date and time of your death... it would shatter everything.
John: Not too long now till your son starts pissing blood!
Eric Matthews: Hey, is this close enough? Rigg: Get his ass out of here... John: Actually, I will need to remain here while you deal with your problem, Detective Matthews Eric Matthews: What problem? John: The problem in that room.
John: Your son is in a safe and secure state.
(from trailer) John: Oh, yes, there will be blood.
Daniel: Yeah... my dad's kind of a hard ass...
John: Would you... kindly get me a glass of water? I would very much appreciate that...
