Synopsis by Mark Deming

The Cisco Kid attempts to prove that reports of his death are greatly exaggerated in this western programmer. Cisco (Cesar Romero) and his sidekick Gordito (Chris-Pin Martin) ride into town to discover that the word on the street is that the great Cisco Kid has died -- and what's worse, before his passing, he tried to swindle Susan Wetherby (Sheila Ryan) out of her land. Cisco soon learns that the dirty deeds are actually the work of Kate Brewster (Janet Beecher), a female outlaw adept at covering her tracks. The Gay Caballero marked Cesar Romero's third screen appearance as the Cisco Kid, with three more to follow.
