More quotes by Bruce Campbell
Horror I appreciate is one of the few genres that can wind the audience up and make them pay attention. I kind of like that. It's one of the few genres that can be very manipulative.
Bruce Campbell
The Way I See It: If you're worried about getting a job-or keeping one-start a company of your own. By doing so, you'll reap the rewards of your hard work and you'll only get fired if you fail. This is the land of opportunity. Live in it.
Bruce Campbell
It's very gratifying that someone likes what you're selling.
Bruce Campbell
A cult classic is one that has been fully embraced by an alternative audience, not the popular audience.
Bruce Campbell
Once you look past the hype, actors are nothing more than fugitives from reality who specialize in contradiction: we are both children and hardened adults—wide-eyed pupils and jaded working stiffs.
Bruce Campbell
Cult films last forever. I have been in plenty of films that no one will remember, so it is nice to be in some movies that some people do, and that they pass it along to the next generation I'm meeting kids named Ash now.
Bruce Campbell
You can't get a movie made without a script it's the blueprint to your building.
Bruce Campbell
Funny stories on set - there are thousands of them, but they are only funny to the people who were on the movies. You start to have inside jokes and gallows humor. You have all kinds of things you laugh at, but as soon as you tell somebody, the joke falls flat because they don't know the context of it.
Bruce Campbell
As an actor, I look for the part itself. I look for the story and the role. If there's no money, but it's a good part in a good role, I'll still consider it. Basically, the worse the role is, the worse the story is, and the more they'll have to pay me. It's a simple correlation.
Bruce Campbell
You couldn't make a cheap drama. That would be too low-budget. Drama has to have good photography and well-known actors.
Bruce Campbell
You could have a bunch of good actors but they can't keep a relationship to save their lives. Everyone thinks it's so glamorous that Ben Affleck is sleeping with all these different chicks. It's only because he can't keep a single relationship because he's working all the time.
Bruce Campbell
People who sleep around to get roles are frail and scared and most likely without talent. It's their own little horror show that only they can deal with.
Bruce Campbell
I like the TV format. I like how fast it is.
Bruce Campbell
As far as my favorite sites, I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much.
Bruce Campbell
You'll lose about two million brain cells every minute that goes by.
Bruce Campbell
Everybody's got brain matter in their hair, and somehow that makes it a very happy workplace.
Bruce Campbell
Genres pop up and get hot and then they die down.
Bruce Campbell
Every word out of my mouth is a word that I've approved.
Bruce Campbell
The happy medium is television. And if you find a good suitor, you can do it for years. With movies, you roll the dice. If people don't show that weekend, you're doomed. TV allows you to percolate a little bit, and it gives you a chance for people to find it.
Bruce Campbell
If you don't have any money and you want to make a horror movie, take a six-inch wide brush for house painting and dip that in a bucket of blood, and then just flick your wrist. You'll get this great speckled splash of blood, and it will cost you nothing.
