Q: Which director would you like to work with next, and what type of movie would you like to do next?

A: I don't play that game—that's for dreamers. I take the gigs as they come, or initiate them myself.

Q: Do you support new filmmakers in their endeavours? And if so, in what way?

A: I just produced a film that took 8 years to complete, so yeah, I'd say so. Search my site for info: Bruce Campbell Online.

Q: What was it like playing Elvis, and did you ever feel the "King" within during the shooting of #cite#Bubba Ho-Tep#/cite#?

A: It was actually kind of a gruelling film to do, with all the make-up, etc., but I like the script a lot, and I had a lot of respect for Don Coscarelli.

Q: How much of "Ash" is Bruce?

A: Not nearly as much as you might assume. Ash is way smarter than me.

Q: Do you feel typecast in "Evil Dead"-type roles? You put in a stellar guest performance in the TV series "Homicide: Life on the Street" a few years back that was very different from your usual roles. Would you like to do more work like that? How do you feel about that type of role?

A: Well, just get more familiar with my stuff, and you'll get a more well rounded view of what I've done. I'm satisfied with the mix.

Q: Given the fact that you've branched out to writing, be it fiction or non-fiction, how different a creative process is it than preparing for a role? As well, if you've always written, and we are just now seeing some of the by-product, is it a relatively new medium/creative outlet for you?

A: Writing is new to me on the book level, and it's been a fun new medium. I have another one due Spring of '05.

Q: You did fabulous work as Elvis in #cite#Bubba Ho-Tep#/cite#! Can you describe what it was like working with Coscarelli and Ossie Davis? Maybe you can relate an anecdote from the shoot.

A: Don and Ossie were both gentlemen, which made the shoot that much better. Ossie also gave our film legitimacy.

Q: "Brisco County" had a lot of potential, but seems to have been kept from ever having an edge. Was the network to blame for that?

A: Of course, since they have the final say. Ultimately, the show vacillated [with regard to] who it appealed to, whereas "X-Files" never varied.

Q: Something I've always wondered, something that wasn't addressed in your wonderful memoir, #cite#If Chins Could Kill#/cite#, is why Sam Raimi decided to make #cite#Evil Dead 2#/cite# a veritable remake of the first film.

A: That's your opinion, so please don't state it as a fact. That's why it wasn't dealt with in the book, because I never thought that it was a remake.

Q: Outstanding work in #cite#Bubba Ho-Tep#/cite#. There was something I wanted to ask you . . . but I guess I got awed and forgot. Anyway, I was just curious if you had a favorite line from any of your films.

A: Thankuuu, thankuverymuuuuch. . . . I leave that for the paying customers to decide.
