A mysterious epidemic has struck an Old West frontier town and young girls are falling deathly ill. Doc Carter, his lovely daughter Dolores, and preacher Dan Young have their hands full caring for the infirm. When one of the patients dies unexpectedly, Dan notices two puncture wounds on her neck. His investigation leads him to the strange gunslinger Drake Robey, who always seems to be slower on the draw than his opponents, but who—despite being outdrawn, and even shot—always manages to survive these deadly encounters. Dan soon discovers that Drake also has an aversion to crucifixes, sleeps in coffins, and cannot tolerate sunlight...

Curse of the Undead
The idea of an unkillable vampire bounty hunter going from town to town to easily collect bounties and drain women of their blood is so appealing, but Curse of the Undead gets too caught up in cheap melodrama, not to mention its uninspired style. For its condensed runtime, it spends too much of it delivering exposition. Despite this and how dully shot it is, that high concept nugget of story and moments of western-tinged horror are a strong enough threads to keep Curse of the Undead fascinating.
