While Satan Sleeps Synopsis

Phil Webster, alias "Slick Phil," the son of a minister, escapes from prison with his pal Red Barton and disguises himself as a minister. He accepts an invitation to become the parson of the mining town of Panamint, intent on using his position to rob the bank. He is welcomed by all the congregation except saloon owner Bud Deming and his daughter Salome. His activities as a fighting parson and the growing love of Salome cause him to reform, and when Red Barton carries out the planned robbery alone, Phil recovers the money and confesses his past to the congregation. The bishop arrives to investigate the new minister and discovers him to be his long-lost son. Phil returns to jail to serve out his sentence. Upon his release, he finds Salome and his father waiting for him.
