Hangfire (1991)

Synopsis: A tanker truck explodes sending toxic fumes toward a prison. The convicts have to be evacuated, and they take the occasion to evade. Led by a ruthless and vicious criminal, they install themselves in a small town, taking many hostages there.
Appraisal: A cheap, poorly staged, poorly acted actioneer. The screenplay is just the same old clichés: truculent feds are outsmarted by the local police, etc.
Rating: 19
