Heart-Stopping Thrills Await in Meghann Fahy’s New Film “Drop”

Ah yes, yet another thrilling cinematic escapade where dating takes a perilous twist. Meghann Fahy, in her latest endeavor titled “Drop,” showcases just how far a mother will go to protect her loved ones, and spoiler alert, it’s not pretty. In the film directed by the horror maestro Christopher Landon—who’s known for blending horror with humor in hits like “Freaky” and “Happy Death Day”—Fahy’s character, Violet, embarks on a first date with the charming Henry, played by Brandon Sklenar. What’s supposed to be a romantic evening transforms into a nightmare as Violet receives ominous instructions via her phone that threaten the lives of her young son and sister. Talk about a mood killer, right?
Set to hit theaters on April 11, “Drop” is not just a movie; it’s a real-time rollercoaster that keeps audiences guessing. Fahy, ever the meticulous performer, described her experience as akin to riding a classic thriller, where every twist and turn is felt in the moment. “I was on the edge of my seat watching it for the first time, and I made the movie!” she declared. Meanwhile, Sklenar chimed in, revealing that filming in a soundstage for weeks, with no sense of time, can lead to both camaraderie and a tad too much intimacy with the same chair.
At the recent SXSW Film & TV Festival premiere, Landon couldn’t help but praise Fahy as an “incredible force of nature,” highlighting her ability to tackle any challenge thrown her way. Let’s be honest, the only thing scarier than a hooded figure on your doorstep is the prospect of a bad first date. So grab your popcorn, folks; this film promises to be a riveting exploration of survival, suspense, and the sometimes terrifying world of dating.
Class dismissed. Try not to let this newfound wisdom go to waste.
