Here is your new storm-chasing weather-destructo-porn fetish movie. It’s called Into The Storm, and it stars Lori from The Walking Dead, Thorin Oakenshield, and just a pantsload of totally insane tornadoes attacking one town over and over and over.
This trailer premiered earlier today at CinemaCon, where the director Steven Quale (who directed Final Destination 5 — which is not terrible, it’s actually fun) admitted that growing up in the Midwest really made him want to make a movie about the horror of tornadoes, and the sirens etc. And Jesus Christ did he. There are so many tornadoes in this trailer.
Here’s the official rundown:
In the span of a single day, the town of Silverton is ravaged by an unprecedented onslaught of tornadoes. The entire town is at the mercy of the erratic and deadly cyclones, even as storm trackers predict the worst is yet to come. Most people seek shelter, while others run towards the vortex, testing how far a storm chaser will go for that once-in-a-lifetime shot.
Told through the eyes and lenses of professional storm chasers, thrill-seeking amateurs, and courageous townspeople, “Into the Storm” throws you directly into the eye of the storm to experience Mother Nature at her most extreme.
Into the Storm, will premiere on March 27th. But until then, I’ll go watch Twister.
