Storyline

A re-edited, digitally colourised and re-scored version of vintage black and white Western 'Blue Steel', complete with contemporary, pulse pounding music. The re-edit brings 'Blue Steel' down to a 22 minute short version. Melgrove, the town's leading citizen, is intending to deviously buy the worthless town, which actually stands on top of a huge gold mine.
