When hearing a tornado alarm most people would entrench themselves, but there are of course daredevils who would pull toward the tornado to make spectacular images. The sensational Into The Storm tells the story of an unusually strong storm from both points of view. The film was directed by Steven Quale (Titanic, Final Destination 5, Avatar), and we see Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead) and Richard Armitage (The Hobbit) in the main roles.

Into The Storm is available from 17 December on Blu-ray ™, DVD, Video on Demand and Digital Download.

SYNOPSIS

In the space of a single day, the town of Silverton is laid in ruins by the worst series of tornados. The whole city is a victim of the unpredictable and deadly cyclones, but tornado hunters predict that the worst is yet to come. Most residents seek shelter, but others are just rushing to the whirlwinds to find the final frontier. How far does a tornado hunter go to shoot the ultimate image of the storm?

One of world's most visionary, celebrated and influential filmmakers, Andrei Tarkovsky made just seven features before his tragically early death at the age of 54. Characterised by metaphysical and spiritual explorations of the human condition, each film is an artistic masterpiece of extraordinary visual beauty and stands as an enduring classic of world cinema.

IVAN'S CHILDHOOD

Tarkovsky's extraordinarily accomplished debut feature is a powerful and moving tale of a 12

year-old boy who vows to avenge his family's death at the hands of the Nazis.

USSR 1962 | Black and white | Russian with English subtitles | 90 minutes approx.

ANDREI RUBLEV

Regarded by many as Tarkovsky's finest film, this epic tale of the great medieval icon painter

chronicles a turbulent period of Russian history and was long suppressed by the politically

sensitive Soviet authorities.

USSR 1966 | Black and white & part colour | Russian with English subtitles | 174 minutes approx.

SOLARIS

Based on Stanislaw Lem's novel, Solaris is a moving and unsettling vision of memory and humanity

which transcends the science fiction genre and has often been compared to

Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.

USSR 1972 | Colour & black and white | Russian with English subtitles | 159 minutes approx.

MIRROR

Reflecting upon his own childhood and the destiny of the Russian people, this beautiful and

densely layered film is Tarkovsky's most autobiographical work.

USSR 1974 | Colour & black and white | Russian with English subtitles | 101 minutes approx

STALKER

Set in a devastated future landscape, Tarkovsky's second foray into science fiction is a surreal

and disturbing exploration of man's quest to realise his dreams and desires.

USSR 1979 | Colour & black and white | Russian with English subtitles | 154 minutes approx.

NOSTALGIA

Filmed in Italy just prior to his defection to the west, Tarkovsky's unforgettably haunting film

explores the melancholy of exile from one's homeland.

Italy 1983 | Colour | Russian and Italian with English subtitles | 120 minutes approx.

THE SACRIFICE

In Tarkovsky's final masterpiece, completed as he was gravely ill, a man vows to God that he

will sacrifice all he holds dear if an imminent nuclear catastrophe can be averted.

Sweden / France 1986 | Colour | Swedish, French and English with English subtitles | 142 mins approx.

The mind behind Battlestar, Knight Rider, The Six Million Dollar Man and many more has passed away.

Glen A. Larson, creator of the 1978 Battlestar Galactica series, has died at the age of 77.

THR reports that Larson passed away Friday night of esophageal cancer at UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica.

Along with Battlestar Galactica, Larson also created the pioneering TV hits Quincy M.E., Magnum, P.I., Knight Rider, The Fall Guy, and The Six Million Dollar Man. He added up to 513 hours of television and 21 combined seasons from 1976 to 1988. Battlestar may have only lasted one season from 78 to 79, but it of course led to Ron Moore's brilliant 2004 reboot.

Larson also created the shows Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Alias Smith & Jones, B.J. and The Bear, Switch, Manimal, and The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.

Bond 24 may have found itself a villain, with Daily Mail reporter Baz Bamigboye reporting that Christoph Waltz has signed on to join the production.

The reporter broke the news via his Twitter feed, going on to reveal that the film will begin shooting in early December in Mexico, Morocco, Austria, Italy and London.

Should the rumour prove to be true, Waltz will be aided and abetted by Dave Bautista’s henchman, while Lea Seydoux is also thought to be on board as a classic femme fatale.

No specific plot details have been revealed as yet, but Waltz feels like a good fit for a traditional Bond villain, so hopefully we’ll get official confirmation on this sooner rather than later.

Directed by Sam Mendes and co-starring Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes and Ben Whishaw, Bond 24 will open in the UK on 23 October 2015.
