Interview with Bruce Campbell
Here’s a brief yet informative interview with the one and only Bruce Campbell, courtesy of the Sun Journal.
Q. You’ve been very candid in criticizing your co-workers when you think they deserve it. Most people with long careers in Hollywood are more circumspect.
A. I’m not going to lie on somebody else’s behalf. Matthew Perry loused up the shooting schedule on “Serving Sara” because he was irresponsible and got thrown back into rehab. Everyone says, “Poor Matthew Perry.” I thought, “You SOB.” Matthew Perry will have trouble getting insured because he stopped an actual production. Robert Downey Jr. tends to take his pants off over his head when he’s not working.
I’m halfway through My Name Is Bruce and, despite a few funny jokes, it’s generally a terrible movie. This will be delved into in greater detail in my forthcoming review.
I got into horror movies thanks to the Evil Dead trilogy, so I have a soft spot in my heart for Bruce Campbell and all his whacky antics, however direct-to-DVD they may be, but I refuse to elevate him to the level of B-movie god king.
He’s still pretty damned awesome, though.
