Synopsis:
The producers of JURASSIC PARK and the director of SPEED show nature's darkest side in 4K!
Jo and Bill Harding are scientists tracking the most destructive tornado in the U.S. in 50 years. Their goal: to plant electronic sensors in the eye of the storm to obtain measurements for a reliable early warning system. But to do that, they have to get in the way of the deadly storm itself. Houses are blown apart, tractors hurled from the sky and a tanker truck turns into a flying bomb. The devastating twister rolls across the land at 300 miles per hour, leaving a trail of devastation...
Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt and Philip Seymour Hoffman in Jan de Bont's breathtaking tornado actioner with groundbreaking special and sound effects.
