  • Ask Bruce Campbell, and he’ll tell you he’s “sick of over-trained heroes. I'm really bored with that. Guys that are just ripped to shreds and, you know, full of skills. That's boring to me. Give me the mechanic that picks up a weapon, you know? Now I'm interested. That's my hero. That could be me.”
    Ash Williams of the Evil Dead franchise IS that hero. Part of the lasting appeal of the best character Bruce Campbell has ever played is that the audience can see themselves in him, like if they were pressed into fighting an army of Deadites, they could take up the mantle, the chainsaw, the boomstick, and mow down wave after wave of the undead masses. In this video, we take a look at Campbell's long career, from his debut in The Evil Dead through his brushes with fame in the nineties, through his awesome return as a character actor on Burn Notice and his return in Ash vs The Evil Dead!

    Met Bruce at a Con in Sacramento, he was so stoked that I brought If Chins Could Kill to have signed, the noticed my shirt shirt Keep Calm and Kill Zombies with a chainsaw under it. He was one of the nicest celebrities I've met, maybe second only to Woody

    Buddy ran into Bruce in the coffee area of a book shop in Michigan. Our group of friends were all big Ash fans. He struck up a conversation with Bruce. Said he was awesome to talk to. Campbell mentioned that his book "If chins could kill" has just released. My buddy went and bought it and Bruce autographed it for him.
    One of our other friends had an Identical Oldsmobile Delta 88, as used in the Evil Dead franchise. Lots of good memories in that battle wagon.
    Bruce will always be a Legend to Us, that is all that really matters.

    My introduction to Bruce was his voice over in the game Broken Helix. I thought he was great and looked for everything I could with him in it. That led me to the Evil Dead series, which has been my favorite ever since.

    I have met him a few times, mostly at book signings but also on the street in NYC when I was working there a few years ago. He always signs 2 items for you at book signings, the book you bought and one other item you bring with you. He usually gives you a minuet or two if he isn't in a rush and there isn't a line he has to get through at the book signing/pannel. Super nice, down to earth, and he knows that his fans make him his money so he gives his time to the fans when appropriate. Don't interupt his dinner, but if he is walking down the street he will happily say hello to you.

    You know what... It might be because I'm not exposed to the tabloid paparazzi shit as much nowadays as I was during the late 90s/early 00s as a teen, but I think some of these actors are doing the celebrity thing better nowadays. Pop up at a con or whatever, do some acting...etc etc.... Maybe it's just the guys I'm a fan of... I respect it tho. Less controversy, more baddassery. (that might have been incoherent, I'll reread this comment in 10 years or so.)

    I remember Jack of all trades, and with Xena and a few other "late night" shows here in Norway. It was one of the better fun shows one could watch. When you watch fiction, you want fiction. not wannabe reality. but, love Bruce, hope he gets his good carma for beeing amazing in silly and lovely ideas on screen! Oh!! baba ho tep is rate 69 on imdb! (6.9) Oh!!! last edit! Ash vs ED is one of the best TV shows ever made! they even ended the 3rd season amazing!
