YMMV / The Perfect Host

• Magnificent Bastard: Warwick Wilson is a charmingly cultured psychotic whose rampant delusional illness does nothing to detract from his hilarity and cunning. Immediately deducing that the criminal John, a supposed friend-of-a-friend, is actually a crook on the run, Warwick lures him inside his home and drugs him, subjecting John to a night of insane torment and terror as part of Warwick's "dinner party." Dancing the night away while convincing nosy neighbors that a drugged John is just a drunk cosplayer, Warwick agrees to let John go after he wins a chess match, only to bait John into attacking him and getting trapped once more. Living an entirely different life and attitude as a police lieutenant, Warwick uses his status to cover up his various crimes, extorts John's stolen bank fortune from him before letting him flee the country, and then ends the film preparing to host another "dinner party", his target this time a suspicious cop who Warwick shows little concern over silencing.
