Mission D.R.O.P.

1994

Drop Squad (sometimes spelled as DROP Squad or D.R.O.P. Squad) is a 1994 American drama film directed by David C. Johnson and executive produced by Spike Lee via his production company 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks.[1] The plot depicts a team of African Americans who kidnap fellow black people who they feel have betrayed their community and seek to "deprogram" them so that they will change their ways.[2] The acronym DROP stands for "Deprogramming and Restoration of Pride".[3] The film has been described as "[p]art thriller, part social satire".[4]

The film was based in part on The Session, a 45-minute film Johnson produced in 1988 on a $20,000 budget,[5] and ultimately derived from a short story by David C. Taylor titled "The Deprogrammer".[6] Johnson described the differences between the two films as follows: "The short film was basically satire, an absurdist piece .... D.R.O.P. Squad, on the other hand, is realism. The characters have more at stake."[5]
