Description: "If Chins Could Kill - Confessions of a B Movie Actor" by Bruce Campbell - Softcover - Published in 2001 by Thomas Dunne Books - 344 pages (with many great black & white photos) - EXCELLENT condition. This is a delightfully irreverent, yet oddly touching, epic of ambition and disappointment, fame and anonymity, and lots of fake blood. Told in Bruce's wry, sarcastic voice, it is a "Hollywood from the bleacher seats" look at his experiences in film and TV and at his status as a cult horror and sci-fi movie god. This man, with the face of a matinee idol and the heart of the Three Stooges, first attracted what has grown into an enormous cult following as the star of Sam Raimi's legendary Evil Dead trilogy of thriller-comedies. With tireless good humor and biting wit, Bruce acted, produced, and directed his way through a baker's dozen of "B" horror films and space operas before finally enjoying mainstream stardom on prime-time TV. Deeply earnest and fiercely funny, this book tells the story of an unlikely star who continues to lead a unique double life as cult movie icon and regular Joe. The Bruce Campbell renaissance is taking place. Intended to be a minor character in the TV Series "Burn Notice," Campbell, star of "The Evil Dead" movies, "Army of Darkness," "Bubba Ho-Tep," and the TV Series "Adventures of Brisco County Jr." is proving just as popular as the leads, Jeffrey Donovan and Gabriel Anwar. He plays an over-the-hill, hard-drinking former FBI agent, who still informs on his best friend (with his knowledge). Again, this book is in EXCELLENT condition. No collection of Bruce Campbell items is complete without this great book.
