Wesley Dalton is one of the main protagonists of the 1990 thriller film The Rain Killer, and is later revealed to be the titular serial killer. He is an FBI agent with several addictions, who began to kill as a means of getting his ex-wife to come back to him.

He is portrayed by David Beecroft, and likely a stuntman for his scenes as the Rain Killer.

Biography[]

Living in Los Angeles, California, Wesley Dalton was a respected agent of the FBI. However, outside of work, he had many vices; such as snorting cocaine, drinking alcohol, and smoking. He often stole drugs from the evidence locker for his own personal use, a perk that would attract a woman named Adele Reardon, who was also an addict. The two eventually got married, but realizing she needed help, Adele would divorce Wesley and start attending a support group known as The Sewing Circle, where she managed to kick her habits.

Not needing Wesley anymore and not wanting to be corrupted by his own addictions, she moved away from him and with her own fortune she inherited, she opened an art studio. However, Wesley was still not over her and would soon come up with a plan to get her back, and take revenge on the The Sewing Circle for indirectly taking her away. During a heavy rainfall, Wesley dressed in a raincoat and hat, stalked and stabbed one of the members of The Sewing Circle.

A few nights later during another rainfall, he followed an FBI agent onto a train where he pulled her into the bathroom and stabbed her, afterwards discarding his bloody raincoat and leaving the train. With two murders taking place during the rainfall, he is given the alias, The Rain Killer. And with an FBI agent being killed, Wesley is put on the case.

During the span of two more killings, the connection to the group is revealed. With Adele being associated with The Sewing Circle, Wesley takes his assigned partner from the local police department, Vince Capra, to question her. In the process, Adele becomes attracted to Vince, which Wesley notices. Eventually, Adele and Vince begin a relationship, which only further incites Wesley's ire.

Confronting Adele alone in her apartment, Wesley reveals himself in full costume as The Rain Killer, elaborating his motives to get Adele to come back to him. When she rejects Wesley again, he smothers her to death with a pillow while in a rage. By then, he's framed the killings on Jordan Rosewall, which was partly meant to buy him time to collect Adele's monetary possessions to live off her funds.

In a chase after Jordan while accompanied by Vince, Wesley shoots Jordan dead. But Vince puts the pieces together and realizes Wesley's the killer. In a climactic duel in the rain, Vince ends up killing Wesley to stop the spree and avenge Adele.
