| | | Undercover has never run so deep. Features: DVD, Dolby Digital Stereo, Dolby Digital (5.1), French, Spanish, Subtitled, Biographies, Film Highlights, Notes, Trailers In the peaceful Appalachian hills of Jackson, Kentucky, the earth burns. The toxins being dumped into abandoned mines could turn Jackson into a wasteland if no one stops it. EPA Marshal Jack Taggert will. Steven Seagal is Taggert in Fire Down Below, a thunderous eco-thriller that also stars Marg Helgenberger, Harry Dean Stanton, Stephen Lang and Kris Kristofferson and music notables Levon Helm and Randy Travis in key roles. Taggert's job is to ferret out those responsible for poisoning the land. When thugs try to take him out of the action, Taggert takes on another line of work. He's in the butt-kicking business. Business is good. "The best Steven Seagal since Under Siege!" Maria Salas, CBS-TV
 Editor's Note
 Action guru Seagal goes rustic as a hard-line EPA agent who brings his own brand of environmental justice to bear upon waste-dumping corporate baddies in a run-down Kentucky mining town. When not bringing villains to their knees, he befriends a band of locals and empowers them to stand up for their rights. Features bits from country music luminaries Levon Helm, Randy Travis, and Travis Tritt.

| | Professional Reviews | New York Times "...A superior Seagal film, a smooth blend of action, character and noble environmental message..." 09/06/1997 p.E18Boxoffice Magazine 6 of 10 ...a by-the-numbers actioner that hits most of its marks, including a juicy justification of a plot (scummy corporate type stores his chemical waste in abandoned mines, sickening an Appalachian town's children), strong supporting characters (Species' Marg Helgenberger as the town outcast, Harry Dean Stanton as a sage bumpkin, and raisin-faced Kris Kristofferson doing his "Lone Star" villain, this time in pinstripes), and spectacular (if chaotic) scenes of destruction. The Seagal/Nasso production even gets some country authenticity thanks to appearances by Travis Tritt and Randy Travis, among others... - Melissa Morrison
