Is it legal for a landlord to withhold a key from his tenants until everyone has paid the first months payment?
Generally speaking, a tenant does not become such until he has been handed the keys to his dwelling. If the landlord has not received his first month's payment, this is the same as in not receiving the rent, which is payable in advance. Therefore the landlord does have the right to withhold the key.
Can a Landlord hold a rental check for 2 months and cause the rental a overdraft?
This is a two part question: The first part - the landlord can hold a check for 6 months. The second part - the landlord does not cause the tenant's account to overdraft. The tenant does. Checks may only be written from available funds. If the account holder does not account for the checks out, the account holder is liable.

What do you pay to the landlord before you move in?
To move into a dwelling, the landlord is going to generally ask you for the first month's rent, a security deposit, and often times the last months rent. Every state has its own rules about this and you should check with it. In South Carolina and Florida your security deposit may not exceed one month's rent. And in both states that security deposit may not be used as rent unless you and the landlord mutually agree.

You can only sue in small claims court for damages. Landlord and tenant cases are only opened by landlords, not the tenant. If, under constructive eviction clause, you exercise your right to move out of that property and the landlord keeps your security deposit and any other payments you made before moving into the property - except for the first months rent unless that's when you're moving out, then you have the right to sue the landlord to reclaim that money.
