"DROP" (2025) Brings Hitchcockian Thriller Vibes To The Meme Generation (TRAILER)

Few people are some impactful that they get an entire sub-genre or aesthetic named after them, and one of the most renowned is Alfred Hitchcock. A complicated man who was both an awful human being and a master at his craft, an unfortunate intersection in the arts, his signature style of Suspense /Thriller is in a league of its own and has been the inspiration for filmmakers from Stanley Kubrick to Steven Spielberg. As the times change, so do the variations of legacy, and this is perfectly demonstrated in the upcoming thriller from Universal Pictures and Blumhouse, “Drop.”

Producers Michael Bay and Jason Blum are teaming up with Director Christopher Landon for the film set to release on April 11, 2025. You can check out the press release and trailer below, and we get ready for the drop this April!
