What would happen if a small Oregon town was besieged by ancient Chinese demons? Who would you turn to in this dark hour? Well if you had Ash from the Evil Dead series living next door he’d be a good choice. But what if you had Bruce Campbell, the actor who portrayed Ash in those movies, as your neighbor? That is the premise of “My Name is Bruce” the new movie which will finally be released on Blu-Ray on February 10, 2009.
When the avatar of the Chinese war deity Guan Di attacks the small town where Bruce Campbell resides, the townsfolk mistake him for his character of Ash and designate him as the hero chosen to stop the demons besieging them. Hilarity ensues.
The film has garnered a lot of positive reviews and is currently touring the country, with Bruce Campbell introducing the film and sticking around for “a spirited” Q&A afterwards. So before you pick it up on Blu-Ray in February, be sure to check out this LIST to see if My Name is Bruce is playing in your area.
