NYC: Tornado Terror

NYC: Tornado Terror (2008) is a Canadian disaster sci-fi film you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Tibor Takács.

An unexplained split in the atmosphere sends a series of tornadoes tearing through New York. Deputy mayor James Lawrence and his ex-wife, climatologist Cassie Lawrence, end up working together — she understood what was happening long before anyone in City Hall did. A firefighter gets trapped underground, NASA overrides the local team's approach, and the window for a solution keeps narrowing. Nicole de Boer and Sebastian Spence lead the cast.

Takács built a career on exactly this kind of efficient TV disaster picture — quick setup, clear stakes, no illusions about budget. Stream NYC: Tornado Terror online on iFILM.
