The wild west town of Purgatory, where the welcoming sign reads, "Ride into Purgatory, say goodbye to God", needs a "town tamer" to take care of its problem with outlaws. James Craig is a former outlaw himself with a fast gun, so when he shows up they hire him on the spot. Paul Richards runs the town from the Babylon Saloon, a cripple who spends his time collecting European art. He hires three of the fastest guns in the west to take care of Craig. One by one they show up: a Mexican bandit, a straw-chewing farmer with a super-fast draw and the proverbial "kid in black", who turns out to be Craig's brother! Of course it all ends with a shoot-out, and a woman gets involved. This one will quench your thirst for an old-fashioned, gritty, entertaining western.
