The premise was loosely inspired by a real experience: Smosh comedian Olivia Sui was once AirDropped a barrage of Shrek memes by her date, and producer Cameron Fuller helped spin that absurd moment into a thriller about anonymous messages.
Although it is set entirely in a swanky Los Angeles high-rise restaurant, Drop was shot largely on soundstages in Ireland, where the production built the multi-level restaurant set from scratch.
Christopher Landon moved over to Drop after stepping away from the long-gestating Scream 7, channeling his knack for genre suspense into a story that plays out almost in real time at a single dinner table.
Drop is a tightly wound Blumhouse thriller from director Christopher Landon, the filmmaker behind Happy Death Day and Freaky. Meghann Fahy, breaking out after The White Lotus, stars as Violet, a widowed single mother stepping back into the dating world for the first time in years. Her date at an upscale high-rise restaurant is meant to be a fresh start — until her phone begins to buzz.
As Violet sits across from her seemingly perfect date, Henry (Brandon Sklenar), she starts receiving anonymous, escalating messages through an AirDrop-style app. The sender can see her, is somewhere inside the restaurant, and threatens to have her young son killed at home unless she obeys — including a demand that she murder her date. Unfolding almost in real time within a single location, the film turns a candlelit dinner into an agonizing pressure cooker.
Written by Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach and produced under the Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes banners, Drop opened in April 2025 to an 83% Rotten Tomatoes score and strong word of mouth for Fahy, grossing roughly $28 million against an $11 million budget. Critics praised how Landon sustains tension almost entirely through a woman, a phone and a table she cannot leave.
