How ‘Supercell’ Composer Corey Wallace Created an “Extremely Visceral” Disaster Score

When critics compare films in the same genre to each other, it’s not always a good thing.

The budget for Supercell was significantly smaller than that of Twister, so the imagery that Winterstern was able to pull off was quite impressive.

Supercell follows William Brody (Daniel Diemer), the son of a legendary storm-chaser who was killed by one, trying to save his family’s business that now belongs to the reckless Zane Rogers (Alec Baldwin), who sees storms as tourist attractions rather than the deadly forces of nature that they are. When his destiny arrives in the form of one of the most powerful storms on record, William leaves his mom (Anne Heche) and home behind to team up with his father’s ex-partner, Roy Cameron (Skeet Ulrich), barely surviving a tornado yet determined to chase one of nature’s most terrifying creations: “the bear’s cage.”
