Cancer Will Do Only Two Things to Bruce Campbell – Jack and Shit, and Jack Left Town
Published:
I’m willing to bet that a decent portion of Crossing Broad readers are Bruce Campbell fans.
He revealed Tuesday morning that he has an uncurable form of cancer:
Campbell is 67 years old, an actor known for his roles in cult classics like the Evil Dead franchise and Bubba Ho-Tep. He starred on the USA show Burn Notice and is known for his work in a few other series, namely The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., Jack of All Trades, and Hysteria. He made cameo appearances in the Spider-Man film series and voiced a bunch of video game characters while making myriad television appearances during a lengthy career that began in the late 1970s. He’s a common site at conventions and is known for being really cool with fans. He’s just a “movie” guy with all sorts of production work to his credit as well.
You could build an entire Bruce Campbell soundboard with one liners just from Army of Darkness –
“Alright you primitive screwheads, listen up! See this? This is my boomstick! It’s a 12-gauge, double-barreled Remington. S-Mart’s top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That’s right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It’s got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That’s right. Shop smart, shop S-Mart. YOU GOT THAT?!”
Hopefully Bruce has a lot of good years left in him. Cancer is only doing two things – jack and shit, and jack left town:
