In the first trailer for Drop, the perfect first date quickly shifts into a murderous nightmare.

The White Lotus star Meghann Fahy plays Violet, a widowed mother who agrees to go on a date with Henry (Brandon Sklenar). Meghann leaves her young son (Jacob Robinson) at home in the care of her sister (Violett Beane). When Megann finally meets Henry at the restaurant, she’s relieved to learn that he’s a handsome, polite, and charming man.

While speaking at their table, Violet begins to receive a series of anonymous drops to her phone. At first, Violet thinks nothing of the memes, and Henry even tries to help her find the culprit sending the messages. The jokes are no laughing matter, especially when a video of a masked intruder appears inside Violet’s home. Violet must not tell a soul about the messages and follow the instructions, or the masked figure will kill her family. Violet’s task: kill Henry.

Drop’s ensemble features Reed Diamond, Gabrielle Ryan, Jeffery Self, Ed Weeks, and Travis Nelson.

Prime Video's library goes far beyond the algorithm-driven hits everyone already knows about. I dug through some older, quieter gems this week, ranging from the chaotic world of a New York orchestra to a burnt-out lawyer taking down corporate giants and a slice-of-life comedy that deserved a much longer run. Whether you are looking for something dramatic, funny, or deeply human, these Prime Video titles worth adding to your watchlist this weekend.

Apple TV on an iPad.

Apple TV has quietly stumbled onto a pretty good streaming strategy: make great original shows and movies, then occasionally throw some genuinely great older movies into the mix. As part of its latest content drop, Apple TV has added a collection of classic and popular movies that subscribers can watch without paying an additional rental fee. The selection varies by region, but titles spotted so far include Arrival, The Martian, E.T., Gone Girl, Zodiac, Titanic, The Sixth Sense, The Bourne Identity, and Catch Me If You Can.

This isn't exactly filler content
