The story

In 1913 South Texas, Pike Bishop is the leader of a gang of aging outlaws – most of them disguised as a U.S.

Pike escapes with his close friend Dutch Engstrom, brothers Lyle and Tector Gorch, the inexperienced Angel, and a fifth man blinded by buckshot, whom Pike mercy-kills.

He had hanged Angel's father for supporting the revolutionaries.
