Manco and Colonel Mortimor are the two most deadly bounty hunters around, always collecting their due after their hunts end in blood. When the bandit El Indio is broken from prison by his gang of outlaws, both hunters will follow his trail to the bank of El Paso, which Indio plans to rob. During their investigations, Manco and Mortimor discover each other and each attempt to force the other away so as to collect the reward money solely. But when plans get out of hand and the odds become too great, the two hunters must work together to avoid the dangers of opposition. Their rickety partnership and Indio’s gang will lead to many conflicts, gunfire and blood.
