Inspired by the Western classic Shane and similar to High Plains Drifter, a Western Eastwood made a decade earlier, Pale Rider is a tale of a mysterious man who may or may not be a ghost, and his defense of an independent community from a greedy mining baron. The title is derived from a Bible verse in Revelation describing one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse:'And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.' Eastwood both directed and starred in the film, which was the first mainstream Western a major American studio had made in five years. What Is 'Pale Rider' About? Close Set in the late 19th century in a remote mining community of Carbon Canyon, California, Pale Rider depicts a town under siege from the depredations of mining baron Coy LaHood (Richard Dysart, The Thing). When a young girl prays for aid, a stranger (Eastwood) known only as Preacher (due to the clerical collar he wears) rides into town. He befriends local residents Hull Barret (Michael Moriarty, Law & Order) and Sarah Wheeler (Carrie Snodgrass, Diary of a Mad Housewife) and fights off LaHood's marauding men. However, Preacher's past is even more mysterious than many of Eastwood's other loners and drifters. Preacher has six bullet wounds in his back, and Stockburn (John Russell, The Outlaw Josey Wales), the corrupt marshal LaHood hires to intimidate the miners, recognizes him as a man he once killed.
