Nature has a temper tantrum in the full trailer for Into The Storm

You gotta love a good disaster epic. Movies like THE TOWERING INFERNO and TWISTER offer thrilling adventures based on the merciless wrath of nature gone awry. We haven’t had a really good natural disaster movie in a while now but INTO THE STORM hopes to change all that.

THE HOBBIT’s Richard Armitage and former WALKING DEAD star Sarah Wayne Callies star in this movie that looks to combine the storm chasing thrills of TWISTER with the insane pseudo-science of Roland Emmerich‘s THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. The results could be a fun diversion during the summer movie season.

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.

The latest trailer shows us a lot of the same CGI footage from the initial teaser but now we get a lot more backstory on how the characters come together. Armitage does a good American accent here as a schoolteacher banding together with Callies and her buddies to try and rescue his trapped kids on the other side of town. I would highly recommend not going into this movie with any expectations whatsoever, but it could be a great deal of fun.

INTO THE STORM hits theaters August 8th.
