If Chins Could Kill : Confessions of a B Movie Actor by Bruce Campbell

I read this book a few years ago and loved it. Hearing all the stories about the creation of some great movies like evil dead and army of darkness was great. also reading about Bruce Campbell's sexual escapades (or lack thereof) was hilarious. I recommend this book for anyone who is a fan of BC or Sam Raimi's work.

I liked how Bruce & his friends begged scammed stole & cheated to raise money for their movies as a kid.

I got to meet Bruce Campbell at a signing when this book was released. We stood in line for three hours. He signed my book "Shop Smart, Shop S-Mart."

Before he could sign my dad's book (while my dad was still in line), my mom called on the cell phone. Bruce motioned for my dad to hand him the phone. He asked who it was.

"My wife, Linda," my dad said.

"Hi Linda," Bruce said, very chipper.

"Which one of you jackasses is this," my mom said, thinking we were screwing with her.

"Jackass? JACKASS?!?! DO YOU KNOW WHO THIS IS? DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM," Campbell shouted, in mock horror. "THIS CONVERSATION IS OVER!" And then he dramatically hung up the phone. All the while, the bookstore clerk was snapping photos with my dad's camera. He signed my dad's book and just as my dad was getting up, the phone rang again. Bruce Campbell jumped up, grabbed the phone from my dad and answered it.

"I TOLD YOU NEVER TO CALL ME HERE AGAIN," he shouted, and then hung up. My dad almost fell down, he was laughing so hard.

We got home and my mom was pissed. She thought we were screwing around with her and that my dad hung up on her. She refused to believe that Bruce Campbell would do that to her. So we took the film from my dad's camera to a one-hour photo place and had the pictures developed as evidence.

He narrates the Spiderman video games. His commentary in the Spiderman 2 game is particularly amusing, and there's a lot of it.
