Overview
Getting Even (also known as Hostage: Dallas and Inferno USA) is a 1986 American film directed by Dwight H. Little.
Plot
A soldier-of-fortune, Tag Taggert, played by Edward Albert, steals some Russian nerve gas from Afghanistan, and brings it to the U.S. to be analyzed. A greedy millionaire rancher, played by Joe Don Baker, finds out about it, steals it and uses it in an extortion scheme.

Production
In an interview, director Dwight H. Little explained that Getting Even was a "vanity project" for members of a wealthy Texas oil family. "They owned helicopters, a Lear jet, ranches. Their only condition was that we used all of their stuff. The whole movie was written and devised around what they owned", said Little.
