Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Dead Man is an acid/existential Western written and directed by Jim Jarmusch, released in 1995. The protagonist, played by Johnny Depp, is an out-of-work accountant from Cleveland named William Blake, though the name is purely coincidental. He goes to a frontier town on the promise of a job, but once there finds the position already taken. He gets briefly mixed up in a love triangle, kills the son of the most powerful man in town in self-defense and is forced to run for his life with a bullet in his chest.While trying to evade the bounty hunters and marshals who are after him he meets Nobody, a solitary and erudite Native American who- upon hearing his name- believes him to be the wandering spirit of the English poet.Not to be confused with the DC Comics character of the same name, and not to be confused with that one really Gorny anime about an amusement park prison.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Ambiguously Human: Crispin Glover's train man, whose soot-covered face and bulging eyes give him a very demonic performance, not to mention speaking in a bizarrely intoned and inhuman-sounding voice. Not to mention that he seems to have some kind of prophetic ability, referring to things that Blake experiences in past tense, but at this point in the film, haven't happened yet. He warns William Blake that he's "on the train to Hell", and given what Blake finds there, it's hard to say that he's definitively wrong.

The Alleged Steed: Mr. Dickinson's Pinto, which he wants back in addition to wanting his son's killer dead. The others, quite naturally, mock him behind his back for it.
