Day of the Stranger was loosely based on Mark Twain's classic short story "The Mysterious Stranger." It brings back the 1970s acid western style. Caine Farrowood is a bounty hunter who works for Loomweather, a cruel kingpin. One day, Caine is left for dead when a job to get a bounty goes wrong. Just when he thinks his life is over, he wakes up at home with his wife Christina waiting for him. Caine is puzzled and confused about how he got back home. He is determined to find out what happened, but soon he is asked to help get another bounty. This is a big one that could cost Caine not his life but his mind if he ends up fighting someone who could be the fallen angel himself.
