Twister

A massive tornado dominates the dusky sky, touching down with violent force on a rural landscape. In the foreground, two people — a man and woman — run from the storm, their expressions tense and urgent. The tagline reads: “Don’t breathe. Don’t look back.” Below the title, it says: “The Dark Side of Nature.”
