*** Résumé en anglais seulement ***Caine Farrowood is a bounty hunter in the days of the Old West. After a job goes wrong, Caine is left for dead. Just as he is about to embrace death he suddenly awakens back in the arms of his pregnant wife, Christina. Baffled by how he got home, Caine wants answers, but before long he is enlisted in the retrieval of another bounty. The reward is huge, but it threatens not just his life, but his sanity as well. His quarry is a mysterious stranger who seems to be a…fallen angel…? Caine becomes trapped between the caverns of his own madness and a full-blown descent into hell in this tribute to the acid-westerns of the '60s and '70s.Adapted freely from the Mark Twain's story The Mysterious Stranger (1916) with touches of Ambrose Bierce's An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (1890), Day of the Stranger was lovingly made by rebels without a crew, guerrilla-style, in the middle of the United Kingdom over a period of six grueling years. Day of the Stranger is a kaleidoscope of blood, guns, satanic nymphs, and psychedelic frenzy, boasting an epic original score. It earned praise from inspiration Alejandro Jodorowsky (El Topo, The Holy Mountain) and features an unhinged turn by cult actor Gary Shail (Quadrophenia, Shock Treatment). Saddle up for the ultraviolent Weird West of Day of the Stranger…
