90s cinema is replete with airplane-set thrillers, many of which involve transporting dangerous convicts, but there’s only one Christmastime dose of mayhem in which Ray Liotta is unleashed – now boarding for Turbulence!

When a notorious serial killer (Liotta) is being transported on a commercial flight, things quickly go from bumpy to out of control as he breaks free, taking the passengers and crew hostage. Enter Teri (Lauren Holly), a resourceful flight attendant who becomes the last hope for survival, all while the plane is caught in a violent storm.
