Dante's Peak is a 1997 American disaster film directed by Roger Donaldson, written by Leslie Bohem, and starring Pierce Brosnan, Linda Hamilton, and Charles Hallahan. The film is set in the fictional town of Dante's Peak where the inhabitants fight to survive the eruption of a long dormant stratovolcano that has suddenly become active again. The film was released on February 7, 1997, under the production of Universal Pictures and Pacific Western Productions. The release came just weeks prior to the similarly themed film, Volcano, starring Tommy Lee Jones, which came out in April of the same year. It was the last film in which Charles Hallahan starred before his death eight months later in November 1997.

It is the third film collaboration between Gale Anne Hurd and Hamilton, who both previously worked in the first two Terminator films.
