After spending several years in prison for a crime he did not commit, gunslinger Jack Sparrow returns to Red Rock, seeking justice. Killing the sheriff who had him unjustly condemned, Jack convinces Chris, a gentle and quiet man to take its place. In a short time, Jack starts taking advantage of the lack of energy put out by the new law enforcement officer and realizes substantial gains. He subjects the population of Red Rock to blackmail and harassment of all kinds. Chris finally finds the strength to face the gunman, but is killed in the uneven gunfight. To the rescue comes a young woman determined to fulfill a personal vendetta. Jack falls under a hail of lead from the girl’s gun and calm returns to Red Rock.

I plan on remaking this film under the working title of "Bloody Vendetta". The main character in the original film, "Law Of Violence", was named either Jack Sparrow or Jack Barrow. In order to avoid a possible lawsuit however, I will rename my character Ben Ross. Ben Ross rides into a town and sees a sign that says, "Welcome to Violence, Colorado, population 8,954. Out here, we ARE the law." Ben Ross walks into the Valhalla Saloon and notices a cowboy constantly harassing one of the saloon girls. He tells the man to leave her alone, but the man won't listen. So he grabs the man by the arm and slams him against the bar. He says, "Mister, you're gonna regret that." To which Ben Ross replies, "Anytime you're ready." The man draws his .45, but before he can even blink, Ross shoots him dead. The sheriff finds out about it and it turns out that the young cowboy who was killed was none other than the sheriff's own son! The sheriff, Bill Thompson, offers a reward for Ross, dead or alive. He wants revenge for the death of his son, Jerry. It seems like almost everyone in the town of Violence liked Jerry despite the fact that he could be a total jerk sometimes when he got drunk. Even the girl whose honor Ross was defending liked him. It's not too long before a bounty hunter by the name of Red Bailey gets wind of the reward and sets out to collect it. Red has already killed 30 men in his line of work and he promises that Ben Ross will make 31. Both Ross and Bailey encounter one another several times, but it's during the final showdown that they decide it must end once and for all. Who will win? Well, I don't wanna mention the spoiler alert but you'll have to see for yourself. Wish me luck.
