This film was a masterpiece & still is to this day. The film inspired me to become a storm chaser when I was already fascinated with weather at a very, & I mean very young age. I first saw the film when I was 4 years old back in 2006. Now the movie is 26 years old & I'm a SKYWARN storm chaser for the National Weather Service at 20 years old. My first tornado I ever witnessed was in Round Rock TX in 2022 while visiting friends. That sealed my fate while still in high school to become a storm chaser. It has been a dream of mine since age 4, & now I'm living that dream. I'm now in college & going after my meteorology degree. My first ever tornado I chased was just last month right in my home city of San Antonio TX. I was able to successfully warn my entire city, & track it until it finally lifted. That is a day I won't ever forget. Hearing this music & soundtrack brings me back strong memories. I still have that original DVD I first watched it on except now it's behind glass. I use a newer one because I don't want to dare scratch up the original I had watched it on. It holds a special place in my life & heart. It's one of those things you just don't forget. I can listen to this music & remember everything.
I got my degree in meteorology because of this film, I’m jealous of you as I live in England and it’s next to impossible to witness a tornado. I’ve only been able to witness a tornado starting to form, but it stalled, that was at Magic Kingdom, Orlando Florida. My dream is to actually chase a storm cell, from beginning to end
@@andrewhorspool5239 There's nothing like a storm chase. Chasing my very first true supercell storm & that tornado in San Antonio a few months back last year in 2023 finally showed me what I was made to become & what I was born to do. Don't be jealous of me. You can join storm tours led by trained professionals if you want to witness a tornado for yourself some day. You can RUclips both of these tornadoes & see the footage of them. -Round rock 2022 -San Antonio 2023
My all time favourite weather phenomenon movie, I come back to RUclips to listen to these amazing soundtracks. I feel like a storm chaser when I hear 'The Hunt Begins' (it really shortens my trips to and from work as I tend to speed while listening to it on Loop).
Thanks for this! I remember seeing this movie in theatres when I was a kid with my dad. I looked and looked for the OST at music stores. This was before I had my first computer so it was very difficult to find. Now a simple search on RUclips and here it is. So thanks again!
Mark Mancina 's top soundtrack and a very beloved film ... RIP Bill '' Τhe extreme '' Paxton , and Phillip Seymour '' The suck zone - crazy boy '' Hoffman ! '' Trust me , Rabbit is good , Rabbit is wise ! ''
Solid score by Mark Mancina. I love the Americana theme and the atmospheric cues. And even though I'm an all-time _forever_ fan of Trevor Rabin for 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' and 'Deep Blue Sea', I could live without the guitar bits here, lol. There was an expanded CD release (3000 copies only) that came out on La La Land records in 2016. Liked & subscribed.
One disappointment, this Instrumental version of the soundtrack isn’t available on Apple Music. Come On Apple Music, get all the movie soundtracks including this one.
Jan de Bont's follow-up to his popular Speed was the wretched Twister, a pathetic film about a group of people who go around seeking tornadoes (for no apparent reason) - and a rival group of people who also go around seeking tornadoes (for no apparent reason) - and of course the two groups detest each other (for no apparent reason). Naturally, the good guys are all scruffy and have crap equipment while the bad guys have slicked-back hair and millions of dollars to throw around - but it's the good guys who always get there first. Yippee! For reasons which escape me, I've watched the film twice, but still have absolutely no idea what the point of it is - unless the point is to just showcase the special effects, some of which are reasonably special while some are not. I can't believe the screenplay is by Michael Crichton, who usually has such a keen sense for what makes good cinema. Anyway, after their collaboration on Speed, de Bont invited Mark Mancina back to score this one. Mancina's music is highly enjoyable - of course, it's got a Media Ventures sound to it, but Mancina's own stamp is on it - it seems that he was actually allowed to show a little musical personality of his own (unless this one just somehow escaped under the net). Trevor Rabin's on hand playing his guitar (his own career as a film composer would begin the same year as Twister was released), and I guess the score is a bit like the best of Rabin's action work - ultimately hollow and inconsequential, but great fun. The album is divided into a few long suites, which play continually but are oddly then split into different tracks for no apparent reason, and this allows a surprising amount of extended musical ideas for a Media Ventures score. The folksy feel of the opening tracks actually reminds me of James Horner's The Perfect Storm (which was composed some time later), and is certainly the highlight of the album. The next section sees the action music arrive in earnest, and while the choral sections do seem a little too much, there's no denying that they make for nice easy-listening music. It's a shame about the brass (I ask again - how do they make it sound so awful over there at Media Ventures / Remote Control?) but it's still good fun. The main theme is that folksy piece, but there's also an action anthem which is pure Zimmer in the way it sounds (think The Rock), first heard in "Cow". I actually wish that, given it seems compulsory that virtually all big films have to be scored by Zimmer's underlings, they still wrote the scores like this. They might not need an IQ in double figures to enjoy, but at least they have melody and are a bit of fun. The lengthy end titles, which builds up to Van Halen's "Respect the Wind", is a nice way of rounding off an enjoyable album. It's not worth the big bucks it commands at the moment, but if you see if for cheap enough and are a sucker for disposable Zimmer-style action music, this is probably the best of the bunch apart from those by the big man himself.

Greatful to the person who loaded these songs thank you 😎 have to watch film again forgot how great the music was and still is

Thank you! Wonderful score, and it's strangely hard to come by
It is and I don’t know why! I used to have the CD. Apple Music doesn’t have the score 😢

Roll the maps !!
Such a quotable movie, yes? That has stood the test of time, too. Imminent Rueage? Nope! Not for The Extreme! 🙂
This score has no business having this much heart. I doubt Twisters will be this good.
This Score Is A Masterpiece! 🌪🌌🌅
