Calling a new thriller a “modern-day Hitchcock movie” is one of the most flattering compliments you can dish out. The legendary director wasn’t known as the “Master of Suspense” for nothing. And Christopher Landon’s “Drop” has huge Hitchcock energy.
Starring “The White Lotus’” Meghann Fahy, this slick thriller movie is relentlessly entertaining. It may not reinvent the genre fundamentals, and dedicated genre fans can probably guess the big reveal ahead of time. But I had a complete blast watching this movie when it arrived in theaters earlier this month. And I’m disappointed more people didn’t see it.
