Twister

Rated: PG-13
Starring: Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton

This blockbuster chronicles a day in the life of a band of gung-ho "storm chasers," who track and follow twisters and tornadoes. The group, invented "Dorothy," a tank containing sensors that can provide much-needed info about these mysterious, severe weather conditions. But in order for Dorothy to work, she first must be swallowed by a twister. So Jo, Bill, and the gang put their lives on the line innumerable times, as getting close to the storm means dodging everything from windswept cattle to flying oil tankers. A classic "storm" flick.
