The Last Supper (1996) / int_1282bf4f	type	No Celebrities Were Harmed
The Last Supper (1996) / int_1282bf4f	comment	No Celebrities Were Harmed: Ron Perlman's outspoken, cigar-chomping, right-wing pundit is very reminiscent of Rush Limbaugh at the time of filming.

The Last Supper (1996) / int_1501e2dd	comment	Hero Antagonist: The local sheriff becomes suspicious of the disappearances, and quickly figures out that this houseful of students is involved. She's rather unceremoniously killed by Luke when he finds her snooping around where the bodies are buried, and has almost nothing to do with the final resolution of the plot.

The Last Supper (1996) / int_319e4a2f	comment	Even Evil Has Standards: Near the end of the film, the group targets a teenager who promotes abstinence. One of them decides it's too disproportionate and takes her home while the rest are preparing the meal. At one point near the end, one of the students points out that they are putting too much effort in the "murder" part of their scheme and not enough effort in being hosts: "The dinners aren't even very good anymore!"

The Last Supper (1996) / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: Norman figures out the main characters' scheme and kills them via Poisoned Chalice Switcheroo. They've all become so corrupted at that point that their deaths might feel justified, but it comes immediately after they decide to change their ways. The final scene then implies that everything the group feared about Norman might be true, and that he might end up becoming president.

The Last Supper (1996) / int_479d4e5a	comment	Would Hurt a Child: The first victim turns out to be a suspected child murderer, which helps to convince the group they were doing the right thing. This gets flipped when one of their victims is a teenage Christian girl who they target for preaching abstinence (mercifully, one of them backs down and takes the girl home before the others can go through with it).

We even see their victims becoming less villainous (eventually killing a woman they consider too restrictive about what books should be taught in schools.)

He also quickly figures out the whole murder scheme by himself while they are in the kitchen arguing and screws them over.
