A renowned wise-guy
actor,
famous for his roles in the
Evil Dead movies and a high school friend of
Sam and
Ted Raimi. Despite his
cult acclaim, Campbell never seems to appear in starring roles in anything better than a
B-rated movie or
television series, such as
Disney's 1997
TV-movie update of
The Love Bug. His current projects include an
Evil Dead Playstation game and the TV series "
Jack of All Trades".
In addition to being an actor, Campbell is also a pretty good writer, having his own website, http://www.bruce-campbell.com, to which he posts self-written columns, rants, and screeds.
At the Project Akon anime convention in 1999, Campbell (who was a GOH along with Tim Thomerson) went above and beyond the call of duty in tolerating and even hobnobbing with the fans, signing autographs, and generally being an all-around great guy.
During the panel Q&A session, he was asked (as he often is) whether there would be a fourth Evil Dead movie. He said, "Yes...there will be a fourth Evil Dead movie..." and then paused to let the applause and cheering die down, then added, "...when monkeys fly out of my butt!"
