Cyclone (Spanish: El Ciclón; also known as Terror Storm) is a 1978 Mexican survival horror film directed by René Cardona Jr. and starring Arthur Kennedy, Carroll Baker, and Lionel Stander. The plot follows a group of passengers from a crashed airplane who find refuge on a small tour boat in the ocean, and who eventually resort to cannibalism for survival. The film is purportedly based in part on Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat (1944).
