Do you need quantum mechanics to see that a photon would fall in or eject? Presumably a little movement from the black hole would do the trick too.

Right, but the QM view tells us that even a perfectly stationary chargeless black hole in a perfect vacuum alone in a perfectly smooth universe would still experience fluctuations in its event horizon. Unlike the Classical view, QM reveals that even in principle there exists a degree of instability in the horizon.
