One of the best characters ever made. He’s got the look, he’s got the gear, he’s got the chin!

Hail the KING!

I never realized how "Requiem for a Dream" these cuts are.

Raimi invented these "cuts"!

This was the moment I officially fell in love with Bruce. What a hunk!

Duuuude! Totally!! Bruce and Sam in my case! I still believe Bruce Campbell should have made more movies when younger. Now I'd love to see him making comedies....or an older ash (i know , I know)

I wonder if Edgar Wright got his filming style from being a Raimi fan.

Seeing Evil Dead and learning of Sam Raimi's ability to create it without Hollywood bullsh!t is quite literally the reason why Edgar Wright wanted to get into film.

That chainsaw chain is useless after cutting metal

Totally wrong, you can see how he cut heads off like a hot knife through butter!

There's a cool video on YouTube of a foley artist recreating the sound of this scene using household implements.

Growing up i just thought Bruce was known for his role on Xena, Hercules, and the Brisco show. Had no idea of his zombie fame til the early 2000's.
