So when the legendary assassin rides into the town of Lordburg and checks into a local hotel, the townspeople are soon buzzing about the inevitable gunfight. It seems that only the town doctor Luke Canfield (Charles Drake) is free from harm, as the town's notable citizens emit more and more erratic behavior.
