There have been several films made about Krakatoa, with the most well-known being "Krakatoa, East of Java" from 1969. Other films and documentaries have also been made about the volcanic eruption and its impact.
No one found Krakatoa. It has been there before mankind. Krakatoa is an explosive volcano in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra in the East Indian archipelago. It is infamous for its eruption in the late nineteenth century, which killed many people and 'darkened' the Earth for a number of years owing to the mass of ejected material that went into the sky.
After the Krakatoa volcanic eruption in 1883, the Dutch colonial government in the East Indies (now Indonesia) responded by providing humanitarian aid, conducting relief efforts, and initiating rebuilding projects in the affected areas. They also established a new system for monitoring volcanic activity to help prevent future disasters.
One volcano located close to these coordinates is Mount Rinjani, which is an active volcano on the island of Lombok in Indonesia. It is known for its stunning crater lake and frequent eruptions.
All the tornadoes depicted in Twister were fictional. The F5 in the 1969 opening sequence was not stated to hit Wakita and was likely set somewhere east of Hennessy. The town of Wakita has never been hit by a tornado
