Christmas Twister (2012) starring Casper Van Dien

Casper Van Dien stars as the World's Most Handsome Weather Nerd in what can only be described as Background Cinema. I started it on the afternoon of Christmas Eve, watched a little that night after IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, and finished it up when I got home on Boxing Day. So you know it's gotta be riveting. But I am nothing if not devoted to my cinema.

CVD plays Ethan Walker, a devoted meteorologist and climate change evangelist who became notorious for causing an evacuation for a storm that never materialized. Now he's working in Texas, is in a rocky marriage with a local newscaster, and has a precocious son and a teenage daughter who hangs out with Faux Paris Hilton.

Naturally, a brewing storm keeps setting off twisters but nobody believes CVD that conditions are ripe for an unheard of F6. Will the local yokels stop gazing at him long enough to know he's right? Will his wife ditch him and their kids for a gig in the big apple with not as handsome weather guy Logan Haynes (Richard Burgi)? If you actually care, it's available on TUBI. – Dan Taylor
