Actor Bruce Campbell Holds Forth On Gore, Horror

excerpt:"On Saturday, Monsters HD on Dish Network unveils a movie marathon that might have seemed at home in the 1950s on the screen of a black-and-white TV. If, that is, movies such as "Evil Dead" and "Bubba Ho-Tep" could have been aired in those days.

The common factor in these films, of course, is Bruce Campbell, an Oregonian who also is on "Burn Notice," the USA Network original series currently airing repeats of its first season.

Recently, Campbell irected and starred in "My Name Is Bruce," a parody of both the actor and his overzealous admirers. The film debuted at the 2007 Ashland Independent Film Festival, and Campbell has continued to tweak it in anticipation of a wide release this year.
