Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

A killer descends on a frontier town where the local brothel owner performs abortions with impunity, and finds his mission of death complicated in ways he never anticipated. Mr. Paul (Montgomery Ford) is a powerful cattle baron who can't stand idly by while brothel owner Mr. Kley (Dan Van Husen) murders the unborn babies of his pregnant prostitutes. Enraged, he hires Print (Aaron Stielstra) to slaughter everyone in town, then burn the sinful cesspool to the ground. Meanwhile, Print struggles to understand Mr. Kley's motives before burying him, and the assassin's loyal assistant Lee (Derek Hertig) falls hard for one of the damaged prostitutes.
