Pacific Heights (1990)
A couple buys a multi-family home, renovates it, and finds some renters for the other units. But they've been targeted by Carter Hayes, a professional squatter, whose plan it is to provoke them until they violate his rights, which will give him grounds to sue.
It's an interesting story and is generally well-done, but I had big issues with the male half of the couple, played by Matthew Modine. He was written as a bit of a trusting idiot with a hair-trigger temper, determined to screw things up and bring his girlfriend down with him.
