First dates are hit or miss, but few turn out as horribly as Violet’s (Meghann Fahy) evening on the town in Drop.
Wading back into the dating pool following the death of her husband, the newly single Chicagoan winds up in a world of 21st-century trouble in Christopher Landon’s thriller, which goes for Hitchcock-via-De Palma and throws in a dash of Trap for good giddy measure. Sharp and tense if not quite as inventive as the director’s prior Happy Death Day and Freaky, the movie, which hits theaters April 11, is a canny cautionary tale about the perils of looking for Mr. Right—and of keeping your phone powered on at dinner.
