Trespass was a 1992 movie directed by Walter Hill. Notable actors featured in the movie include Ice Cube, Ice T, Bill Paxton and William Sadler. The film was written decades earlier by a pre-Back To The Future Robert Zemekis and Bob Gale. The film is intended to be an update of The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre.

Two Arkansas firemen, Vince (Bill Paxton) and Don (William Sadler) meet a hysterical old man in a building on fire. The old man hands them a map, prays for forgiveness, then allows himself to be engulfed in flames. Outside of the fire and away from everyone else, Don does a little research and finds out that the man was a thief who stole a large amount of gold valuables from a church and hid them in a building in East St. Louis. The two decide to drive there, thinking they can get there, get the gold and get back in one day.

While they're looking around at the abandoned building they need to be in, though, they spot a gang, led by King James (Ice-T), who is there to execute an enemy of theirs. Vince and Don witness the shooting, but give themselves away, and only manage to force a stalemate when they grab Lucky (De'voreaux White), King James' brother. Barricading themselves behind a door, they continue trying to find where the gold is. Adding to their troubles is an old homeless man, Bradlee (Art Evans), who stumbles in on them while they're trying to find the gold and hold off King James.

King James, for his part, eventually calls in some reinforcements, which includes Savon (Ice Cube), who would rather just shoot everyone in sight, rather than King James' approach of trying to talk to Don and Vince. While doing some reconnaissance, Savon and Raymond, the man who supplies the guns to King James, find Don and Vince's car and the news story of the gold, figuring out why "two white boys" would be in their neighborhood. Raymond manipulates King James' men into accidentally shooting at Don and Vince, which eventually leads to Lucky being shot himself (Savon: "I guess he wasn't that lucky"). King James is now furious and runs after the men. Don and Vince, meanwhile, have found the stash of gold (the map was drawn with the intention of looking UP at the ceiling, instead of down at the floor), and try to get out with the gold while avoiding King James.

The gold changes hands a few times, once with Savon, another time to Bradlee, and people shooting everywhere. Eventually, Don and King James meet and end up killing each other. Savon and Raymond also kill each other. The building they were in gets burned to the ground. Vince encounters Bradlee outside the building, and Bradlee tells Vince to run (he can't drive away, since Raymond ripped out the wires in his engine, gave him four flat tires and cut the line to his CB radio). Once Vince is out of the way, Bradlee picks up the haul of gold that was left behind and walks off, laughing.
