Hostage Flight

Hijackers mess with the wrong passengers in this white-knuckle thrill ride starring Ned Beatty, Dee Wallace Stone and Kristina Wayborn. A one-hour flight turns into a travelers worst nightmare when a Detroit-bound DC-10 is hijacked by four armed terrorists and ordered to fly to London. Watching helplessly as their fellow hostages are executed in cold blood, the remaining passengers scheme to retake the plane and avenge the victims themselves. Shot on the same jumbo jet soundstage as the Airport movies, Hostage Flight was sent back into production when the climactic scene between the terrorists and passengers was deemed too horrific to air. Hostage Flight remains one of the most controversial and prophetic TV movies in broadcast history.
