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

Landon shows a playfully nimble majesty where it comes to balancing suspense, horror, humor, and general human pathos.

Christopher Landon's 'Drop' plays with the tropes of romance cinema to construct a macabre satire on contemporary love. [Full Review in Spanish]

Daily Record (UK)

Drop is Landon’s most mature outing to date and its Hitchcockian trappings mix well with modern technology and attitudes.

Exclaim!

'Drop' never goes so far as to follow the common B movie trope of cheesy-for-the-sake-of-cheesy, although the big final sequence could have benefitted greatly from an extra helping from the fromagerie.

Rated: 6/10
