I've managed to make a living in a very ridiculous business, and that's fine with me. The trick now is, after you've been in it for a while, you still have to remember to have fun.

More quotes by Bruce Campbell
You're not looking for the Rolls Royce and the big fancy trailer. Those are supposed to be the byproducts of having fun and then getting good at what you do.
Bruce Campbell
You have to be careful with fans, they'll turn on you. They turn quick. Twitter can go dark fast. If you talk about something serious on Twitter, you better be ready. If you try to pull out real facts or talk about political opinions or something religious, forget it. Like if people asked me who I was voting for, you couldn't touch that one.
Bruce Campbell
Westerns pop up every so often, everybody does a western and then they all die.
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
I'm not interested in making a $60-million studio film with a bunch of 24-year-olds telling me what to do.
Bruce Campbell
Digital blood is not effective.
Bruce Campbell
It'll die down like every other genre, but horror has always been one of the four or five main genres that will never go away.
Bruce Campbell
Actors are always going to have a little bit of themselves in everything.
Bruce Campbell
I think having simplicity doesn't always mean that you make a good movie. I have a theory that a movie that's easy to make is hard to watch.
Bruce Campbell
I like the TV format. I like how fast it is.
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
My father was in the ad business, and he wanted to be a painter.
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
I prefer a much looser style. Any time a writer thinks he has all the answers to how someone should talk or react or end a scene, it's a spontaneity - killer. I don't get making sure you get every word right in some stupid speech just because a writer sat there and did 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
Too many actors are trying to be cool: they're trying to do it with their hair, trying to do it with the color, trying to do it with clothes, or some bullshit attitude you're either cool or you're not, that is my theory. If you have to try, it is too late.
Bruce Campbell
As far as my favorite sites, I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much.
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
Everybody's got brain matter in their hair, and somehow that makes it a very happy workplace.
Bruce Campbell
I think the Internet is the single greatest revolution to come around in a long time. It's so convenient, it's frightening. I can definitely see why some people don't leave their house anymore.
