Hellfighters (1968)
Velen houden het blussen van oliebranden voor de moeilijkste en gevaarlijkste job in de wereld. Deze wordt uitgeoefend door een handjevol specialisten- taaie onverschrokken kerels die bij het erste teken naar iedere uithoek van de wereld gaan als daar een brand uitbreekt. Een van deze mannen is Chance Buckman. Samen met o.a. Greg Parker gelukt het hem de ene ernstige brand na de andere te bedwingen. Zijn roem neemt toe en daarmee ook de vraag naar zijn diensten. Maar de zenuwinspanning is enorm voor zowel hemzelf als zijn naasten. Elke nieuwe opdracht is een nieuw geweldig en angstwekkend gevecht tegen een laaiend inferno met het leven als inzet...
