After the Wells City bank is robbed the elders of the city decide to take action. At the suggestion of Judge Kincaid a famous gunslinger, Slim Corbett, is called upon and he accepts the city’s request to find the robbers for considerable compensation. He begins the investigation aided by a poor Mexican named Job. Later, when a stagecoach carrying gold to the bank is attacked by bandits, Slim, after escaping an ambush, discovers that one of the leaders is the sheriff and that he has hidden the stolen goods. But the leader of the band, Douglas, a wealthy landowner, kills the sheriff and attempts to blame Corbett. Job has meanwhile recovered the gold and informed the court of the innocence of Slim, who is released. In the meantime, Job has been captured and tortured by Douglas’ henchmen. Corbett to the rescue becomes involved in a bloody clash and ends up exterminating the whole gang.

  1. I remember seeing this Western a long time ago and I can't help thinking of how Dean Reed looks like Donald Trump.
