This was already posted but I am willing to give this thread a BUMP. Maybe the story will get more play this week.

I have not seen this film (it is on DVD paired with another film) but have no doubt that it shows some of Red Adair's handiwork if not his crew in action.

As a youngin', Hellfighters was the first movie that I stayed up past my bedtime and watched with my dad's sanction. My dad was an old oil field worker and had a lot of respect for what Mr. Adair did.

One of those Father and son memories that I'll never forget.
