The Perfect Host
John Taylor (Clayne Crawford) is a merciless criminal who has just robbed a bank. On the run and in desperate need of a hideout, he accosts the polite and accommodating Warwick (David Hyde Pierce) in his lovely home and holds him hostage. He can't kill Warwick, though, because guests are arriving shortly for a dinner party. Or are they? It soon becomes evident that nothing is as it seems, as Warwick turns the tables on his attacker, in this thriller tinged with dark humour.
