#FIRSTLOOK: “DROP” IS NOW ON DIGITAL, 4K UHD, BLU-RAY & DVD

DROP is one of our favourite movies this year and we’re thrilled that it finally gets an at-home release. This edge-of-your-seat thrill ride is available now on DIGITAL, 4K UHD, BLU-RAY™ & DVD!

Meghann Fahy (Sirens, The White Lotus) delivers a star-making performance in this cat-and-mouse chase that takes place over smartphones as a woman looking to get back onto the dating scene again, is stalked and threatened while on her date. She is tasked to kill her date or her loved ones at home could be offed also! Trust me, this one is a wild ride from Director Christopher Landon.

We reviewed the 4K UHD version which looks and sounds crisp, even as much of the Film takes place in a dark restaurant. Impressive!

#FIRSTLOOK: NEW TRAILER FOR “SIRENS”

Today, Netflix revealed the official trailer and new images for its upcoming five-episode limited series Sirens, starring Academy Award-winning actress Julianne Moore, Meghann Fahy, and Milly Alcock. The female-driven, dark comedy limited series, created by Emmy-nominated writer and showrunner Molly Smith Metzler (Maid) and executive produced by LuckyChap, will premiere on May 22, 2025.

The series also stars Emmy-nominated actor Kevin Bacon, Glenn Howerton, Bill Camp, and Felix Solis.

About Sirens:
Logline: Devon thinks her sister Simone has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell. Michaela’s cult-ish life of luxury is like a drug to Simone, and Devon has decided it’s time for an intervention, but she has no idea what a formidable opponent Michaela will be. Told over the course of one explosive weekend at The Kells’ lavish island estate, Sirens is an incisive, sexy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class.
Episodes: 5 episodes x 1 hour
Showrunner / Writer / Executive Producer: Molly Smith Metzler for Quiet Coyote.
Executive Producers: Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley, and Margot Robbie for LuckyChap; Colin McKenna
Director/Executive Producer: Nicole Kassell (eps 101 & 102)
Starring: Julianne Moore (Michaela Kell), Meghann Fahy (Devon DeWitt), Milly Alcock (Simone DeWitt), Kevin Bacon (Peter Kell), Glenn Howerton (Ethan Corbin III), Bill Camp (Bruce DeWitt) and Felix Solis (Jose)

Sirens is the first series from Metzler’s creative partnership with Netflix and is based on her play Elemeno Pea, which she wrote at The Juilliard School. 2021’s acclaimed limited series Maid was Metzler’s first project with Netflix.

#FIRSTLOOK: NEW TRAILER FOR “DROP”

First dates are nerve-wracking enough. Going on a first date while an unnamed, unseen troll pings you personal memes that escalate from annoying to homicidal? Blood-chilling. DROP is in theatres April 11, 2025.

Director Christopher Landon returns to the thriller genre with the playful, keep-you-guessing intensity he perfected in the Happy Death Day films with this of-the-moment whodunnit where everyone in the vicinity is a suspect . . . or victim. Drop is jointly produced by blockbuster genre houses Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes.

Emmy nominee Meghann Fahy, breakout star of White Lotus and The Perfect Couple, plays Violet, a widowed mother on her first date in years, who arrives at an upscale restaurant where she is relieved that her date, Henry (It Ends with Us’ Brandon Sklenar) is more charming and handsome than she expected. But their chemistry begins to curdle as Violet begins being irritated and then terrorized by a series of anonymous drops to her phone.

She is instructed to tell nobody and follow instructions or the hooded figure she sees on her home security cameras will kill Violet’s young son and babysitting sister. Violet must do exactly as directed or everyone she loves will die. Her unseen tormentor’s final directive? Kill Henry.

The film also stars Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) and newcomer Jacob Robinson as Violet’s sister and son; with Reed Diamond (Moneyball), Gabrielle Ryan (Power Book IV: Force), Jeffery Self (Mack & Rita), Ed Weeks (The Mindy Project) and Travis Nelson (The Lake) as the restaurant’s staff and diners.

Drop is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Landon, the writer-director of last year’s We Have a Ghost and the zeitgeist-rattling Blumhouse hits Freaky, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones and the Happy Death Day films. The film is written by Jillian Jacobs & Chris Roach, writers of Blumhouse’s Truth or Dare and Fantasy Island.

The film is produced by Jason Blum (Five Nights at Freddy’s, M3GAN) for Blumhouse and by Michael Bay (Transformers films, A Quiet Place franchise), Brad Fuller (A Quiet Place films, The Purge franchise) and Cameron Fuller (The Astronaut) for Platinum Dunes. The executive producer is Sam Lerner.
