In the small city of Louisville lights go out as the last goldmine is exploited. The inhabitants search their fortune in the West, where land is fertile. But unfortunately this land is owned by the Comanche, which don't want to concede it to the settlers. The "honorous" salesman Wilson (Francisco Sanz) kills some Indians and blames it on the colonists. Furthermore he sells arms to the Comanche. The former gunslinger "Gun" Barrow (Adrian Hoven), now an alcoholic, and his friend Bill Hogan (Rik van Nutter) trie to save the settlers from the fury of the Comanche and to put a stop to the weapon dealer's satanic game.

The Gunslinger says:

This film, made by Joaquin Romero Marchent in 1965, resembles strongly to the Non-Spaghetti-Eurowestern, like i.e. "Apache gold", "Winnetou: last of the renegades" or "Treasure of silver lake". You've got the usual blend of religious German settlers, bad (Comanche) and good (Utah) Indians as well as some gringos, making their business at the expense of all the others. Furthermore the violin and guitar dominated score of Angelo Francisco Lavagnino remembers to the scores of Martin Böttcher, who wrote the music for nearly all of the Karl-May-movies. An average film, which troubles a little bit with the lack of tension.
