Throughout the West, one name means action: Chuka! Rod Taylor straps on his six-gun in this heroic, hard-hitting western about Chuka, a man of war who's seen enough fighting to know he must keep the brushfires of hatred and violence from erupting again.

But there's a glimmer of hope: the lone gunfighter who's come to help them is the man called Chuka!
