Saving Emily

Saving Emily (also known as Blood Trap) is a Canadian made-for-television thriller film directed by Douglas Jackson and broadcast in the United States at 11 October 2004 on Lifetime.

[1] Cheryl (Alexandra Paul) lives with her abusive husband Kurt (Michael Riley) in a small house at Canada.

A small sample of body tissue is needed to save her from an otherwise certain death; however, Cheryl is found to be incompatible with the required transplant.

Afterwards, he is shown giving the ring to criminal loan shark Russo, in attempt to buy more time before the debt is due to be paid.

Kurt flees to her home, explaining that Russo is close on his heels, and had killed his girlfriend as an urgent warning.

He scolds her for her foolishness in being blackmailed, and points out that because she ignored his advice when he first warned her about marrying Kurt, he has no obligation to pay her for her mistake.

At hospital, a dying Kurt calls for Cheryl and tells her that "[he] gave Emily what she needed", and returns her ring.
