Which of the two alternative endings to "Army of Darkness" did you personally prefer? Tanya Jackson
I prefer the original one, the one where Ash miscalculates, sleeps too long and the world has been destroyed, I think it's way better. The studio insisted we change it because when they previewed it people thought it was "a sad ending", it was like a downer. But I think it sets up a way better sequel - Ash leading a revolt against the robots, where now he would be the primitive screw-head.

Will you ever do another "Evil Dead" sequel? Steven Hudson
I think if Sam gets bored playing the Hollywood game there might be, but right now he's doing pretty well, so I think he's pretty busy with the "Spider-Man" thing.

When are you ever going to get on with the planned "Phantasm" film, as us fans have waited years to find out what the hell the films are about?! Alan Mckennae
Well, the issue of financing has to take place. You know, this was a script that Roger Avary wrote immediately after winning an Academy Award. His agent asked him what he wanted to do and he said "I want to write "Phantasm 5" and they laughed in his face but he said, "No, I'm serious". So he did, and it's a fun script, but at this point they're just trying to get the dough together, so there's nothing to talk about really.

Bruce, what made you decide to play Elvis in the upcoming "Bubba Ho-tep", and when are we likely to see this released in the UK? Julian Bacchus
Hopefully that thing will be out in a year or so. I took it for the same criteria that you and I were talking about, in that Don Coscarelli has made movies before, he's familiar with the genre; the script was really bizarre but I enjoyed it, I enjoyed the fact that it was an unblemished look at a character and that Don was going to take enough time to shoot it. He took six weeks, and for a low-budget movie that's not bad. That's how I judge how fast you're going to have to move. It was good and I'm glad I did it. It was not an easy shoot, but I'm glad I did it, because the fans seem to enjoy it.

Over your career, you've played a number of comic characters. Have you ever wanted to do something radically different? Shakespeare perhaps? Kev
Shakespeare's too tough for me, only because I can't really get into it, and it's hard for me to get excited about something I can't really get into. Regular stage, yeah. You know the book "Shane", which was made into a film? I did a live version on stage this past summer in Ohio, so that was fun to do, strange things like that, where you really have to act again, there's no breaks like cinema, you really have to do a good job. It's good to do that every so often.
