Ask Bruce Campbell

Hey Bruce, love your work. I was wondering could you help me, I have been trying for ages to track down a movie I saw you in. I would love to know the title as I never saw the end. You played a guy who was pushed into being a bank robber by your wife. Gavin Hartin
Oh, yeah, that was called "In the Line of Duty: Blaze of Glory". It was a series of NBC TV movies that they made loosely based on real police stories, and this was based loosely on a real story of yuppie bankrobbers, who lived a normal yuppie life, but paid for everything by robbing banks.

Would it be correct in saying you are probably the most tortured man in film history? John Callaghan
Jeez, I don't know. I suppose I would go on a short list of one through ten, maybe. I'm sure there are other actors who've had it worse, I just can't think of any right now.

Do you have any plans to write another book? Dave Anderson
It's funny you should ask that question. I'm writing a lighthearted look at relationships book called "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way". It's due out in about a year from now.

Were you a whizz with the ladies in high school? Padre DelMar
That person will find out once they read the next book, but the basic answer is, "Hell, no!"

What is better, being in a film or having your own action figure? Karl Walsh
Well, the action figure is too obscure, because with the "Army of Darkness" action figure, it came out about ten years after the movie, so it's hard to get all a-twitter. But I'm glad to see that there's enough interest to put it out, and now Todd McFarlane has done a whole bunch of those versions, so I'm glad somebody out there's making money.

What can we expect next? DGC Leenart
I'm going to write this next book and then direct this film and then go on tour for the next book and then take some time off, so all of '03 is pretty much committed for.

Are you going to tour Europe some time to promote your book? Andrew McQuade
You know what, at some point I really should, because it's silly to neglect it seeing as Mother England is really responsible for helping launch the "Evil Dead" movies, so at some point I hope to. It's just hard to co-ordinate.

Why do you think the "Evil Dead" movies got more support in England than they did in America? James Evans
Because they were more tolerant at the time, I think. It's also I think… Parts of London are a little rowdier than parts of the States were at that time, and I think it's a rowdy movie. It needs a rowdy audience to kick in. In the States it took a while for people to find it, but it almost became a European curiosity. You know, "What's this movie that's causing all that stir over there?" So it came here and people found it here, but someone had to get it going and see what the reaction was somewhere else. Someone had to prove that the movie could do something to audiences.
