His name is Bruce
B-movie titan Bruce Campbell will get the spotlight at 7 p.m. Sunday on the Monsters HD all-horror TV channel. “Bruce Campbell: King of Horror” will feature some of The Mighty Chin’s movies, including “The Evil Dead,” “Evil Dead 2″ and “Bubba Ho-Tep.”
Campbell, who has been appearing on USA network’s “Burn Notice,” recently played 20 questions with Popmatters.com. Here’s just a few of them:
Q: The latest book or movie that made you cry?
A: My favorite movie is “The Sound of Music.” I’ve even seen it in a thousand-seat theater and it was amazing. It always gets people all choked up.
Q: You want to be remembered for …?
A: Never going away … like a bad rash that just keeps coming back.
Q. You feel best in Armani or Levis or…?
A: Montgomery Ward work pants. I wore those for years and years. They’re almost like wearing canvas. They’re ugly as hell but they protect me from everything.
I’ve only owned one piece of Armani and I have no idea where it is today. This is why I live in Oregon now. I find Hollywood to be mostly embarrassing because so little of the shenanigans have to do with making movies.
Bruce also talked a bit in the Popmatters.com interview about his upcoming movie, ”My Name is Bruce,” which he directed and co-produced. He says it just wrapped and is due for a fall release. The synopsis is available on www.brucecampbell.com. Check out the trailer, which looks promising:
