The 1996 film Twister rocked the 1996 box office, racking up $495 million worldwide and snagging an Oscar nomination for special effects.
The film earned well-deserved praise for its special effects and sheer entertainment value.
The new film stars Daisy Edgar-Jones as Kate Cooper , a former storm chaser haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado.
The original 1996 trailer for Twister captured nothing of that film's charm, humor, and sheer entertainment value.
Screenwriter Mark L. Smith consulted with all kinds of scientific experts while working on the screenplay.
The performances come off as much more shrill and over-the-top, at least in the trailer.
