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 \u003ci\u003efallen angel\u003c\/i\u003e ? 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.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdapted freely from the Mark Twain's story \"The Mysterious Stranger\" (1916) with touches of Ambrose Bierce's \"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge\" (1890), \u003ci\u003eDay of the Stranger\u003c\/i\u003e was lovingly made by rebels without a crew, guerrilla-style, in the middle of the United Kingdom over a period of six grueling years. \u003ci\u003eDay of the Stranger\u003c\/i\u003e is a kaleidoscope of blood, guns, satanic nymphs, and psychedelic frenzy, boasting an epic original score. It earned praise from inspiration Alejandro Jodorowsky (\u003ci\u003eEl Topo\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Holy Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e) and features an unhinged turn by cult actor Gary Shail (\u003ci\u003eQuadrophenia\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eShock Treatment\u003c\/i\u003e).
