Bruce's best work to date.

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2006)

Bruce Cambells finest achievement to date. This movie is the reason fans consider Bruce Cambell to be the god of B-movies. "Army of Darkness" and his book "If chins could kill" are Bruce's greatest contribution to modern alternate movie culture. "Evil Dead" and "Evil Dead II" pale in comparison. For those of you not familiar with the many famous lines from "Army of Darkness", I suggest you play the retro computer game "Duke Nukem". Duke should have been called Ash, because in style, tone and direct quote he is pure Ash! Bruce has also put in solid performances in 2 to 3 episodes of every Xena and Hercules season made, but again, these are average in comparison to his defining role in "Army of Darkness". For a different take on Bruce Cambell watch the new release "The Woods" (release date 2006): A good horror movie which in style strongly reminded me of "The Craft". It is about the supernatural goings-on at an all girls school in a secluded neck of the woods. This movie is way above his usual B-grade stuff, you might even call it a commercial hit. It is certainly miles above his recent Z-grade crap "Man with a Screaming Brain". As the man himself said "Hail to the King baby!!"
