Summary

When the multiple murderer Cain is released from prison after 18 years, he wants to settle down as a rancher and never touch a gun again. But his former life haunts him; not only that nobody wants to give him a job, some villains also want to pay him back. So he has to accept the offer of showman Ruffalo to perform as "Killer Cain" in his traveling shooting show. However after 18 years without practice even Ruffalo's young assistant Billy shoots better than Cain.

> Once again, the internal conflict of the protagonist, Cane, (at least the first part of the film) goes into the background -which is not anything after 18 years in prison and the association lynches the ex-convict in each town he arrives at. and asks for honest work - to shine a spotlight on the shadowy recesses and abysses? of young Billy, collaborator and star of Dan Ruffalo's show; isn't this Billy enough of a wink to William Bonney? His inexperience seasoned with infallibility with the revolver, seasoned with the reckless mania of not remembering -like that friend of Pat Garrett- to be mortal? And fatally it is known that the incredible skill of Billy did not even serve to check that his gun was loaded; and fatality that it is known that Cane finally seemed to have the glory, but he forgot that he had only paid in jail for 1 of the 12 murders
