A Hitchcockian thriller that cleverly utilizes modern technology for its twists and turns, Drop delivers on its pulpy premise while providing a welcome showcase for leading lady Meghann Fahy.

Drop is certainly cheesy and outlandish at times, you’ll even roll your eyes once or twice. But like the most thrilling of those 90s thrillers, you’ll never be bored.

Rated: 3/5

Film Frenzy

No, the title doesn’t refer to eye drops, lemon drops or (thank the Lord) Drop Dead Fred -- instead, it refers to the type of messages sent anonymously to people’s cell phones. And it's a sturdy thriller that largely delivers.

Rated: 3/4

It’s an expertly paced affair that showcases Landon’s unique directorial eye, as well as a roster of superb performances.

Fun film that does a good job keeping you guessing, but the real good stuff is at the end. Some over the top moments, but it’s an enjoyable flick

I was very surprised with the outcome of this film. I went in expecting it to be highly corny yet it turned out to be entertaining. The end may be a little questionable but it didn’t ruin the movie for me.
