As the hot sun beats down on the small, dusty town of Hell’s Hinges, a new preacher arrives on the scene, determined to save the souls of its citizens. He may be young, but he’s got a fire in his belly that won’t be extinguished. His name is Reverend Robert Henley, and he’s a force to be reckoned with.
Robert wants nothing more than to turn the town away from its sinful ways. He preaches fiery sermons and counsels individuals one-on-one, hoping to lead them to righteousness. But his sermons fall on deaf ears. The townspeople are too busy living their lives to listen to his calls for salvation.
It doesn’t help that the town is run by a ruthless saloon owner named Silk Miller, who will stop at nothing to maintain his hold on the town’s inhabitants. Silk sees Robert as a threat to his power and sets out to destroy him.
The reverend realizes that he needs help if he’s going to make any headway in turning the town around. He strikes up an unlikely partnership with a rough and tumble cowboy named Blaze Tracy. Blaze doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would be interested in helping a preacher, but there’s more to him than meets the eye.
In an effort to get the townspeople to listen to Robert, Blaze stages a fake holdup of the town’s bank. The plan is to have Robert come in and talk the robbers down, showing the people that he truly has their best interests at heart. But things don’t go as planned, and the situation spirals out of control.
The robbers turn out to be Silk’s men, and they take Blaze and Robert hostage. But as the two men are being led to their deaths, something miraculously happens. A group of ranchers who had previously been too scared to stand up to Silk arrive in town, guns blazing. They take out Silk’s men and save Blaze and Robert.
With Silk’s power broken, the town begins to change. The people start listening to Robert and turning their backs on their sin-filled ways. Blaze and Robert become heroes, and their partnership grows stronger.
As the dust settles on Hell’s Hinges, the two men stand side by side, looking out over the town they’ve saved. They know that there’s still much work to be done, but they’re ready for whatever comes their way.
