First Poster for Horror-Western 'The Pale Door' - Follows a gang of cowboys who seek shelter in a ghost town after a disastrous train robbery. They soon discover that the town is home to a coven of witches and blood-thirsty wolves.
The film follows a gang of cowboys and a mysterious woman who seek shelter in a seemingly uninhabited ghost town after a disastrous train robbery. Seeking help for their wounded leader they are surprised to stumble upon a welcoming brothel in the town’s square but soon discover that the town is home to a coven of witches and blood-thirsty wolves.
“It’s 3:10 To Yuma meets The Descent, but doused, and then set on fire with psychological horror,”.
Sounds interesting. Wish they did more western horror. Actually, I wish for more western movies in general!
