Campbell, Bruce

SUMMARY

"This approach generates some of the most witty showbiz lunacy since" This Is Spinal Tap,"" ---"Sacramento News & Review""" What you're reading right now is known as the "flap copy." This is where the 72,444 words of my latest book are cooked down to fit this space. But how does one do that? Do you reveal pivotal plot points like the one at the end of the book where the little girl on crutches points an accusing finger and shouts, "The killer is Mr. Potter"?A. Know who I am B. Liked the cool smoking jacket I'm wearing on the cover C. Have just discovered that the bookstore restroom is out of toilet paper Is it a sequel to my autobiography If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor? Sadly, no, which made it much harder to write. According to my publisher, I haven't "done" enough since 2001 to warrant another memoir. Is it an "autobiographical novel"? Yes. I'm the lead character in the story, and I'm a real person, and everything in the book actually happened, except for the stuff that didn't. The action revolves around my preparations for a pivotalrole in the A-list relationship film Let's Make Love! But my Homeric attempt to break through the glass ceiling of B-grade genre fare is hampered by a vengeful studio executive and a production that becomes infected by something called the "B movie virus," symptoms of which include excessive use of cheesy special effects, slapstick, and projectile vomiting. From a violent fistfight with a Buddhist to a life-altering stint infederal prison, this novel has it all. And if the 72,444 words are too time-consuming, there are lots and lots of cool graphics. Regards, Bruce "Don't Call Me Ash" Campbell Praise for" Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way" " " "It's a great, goofy what-if." ---"Entertainment Weekly" " " "Ultimately, "Make Love" is a Bruce Campbell novel, starring Bruce Campbell, written for Bruce Campbell fans for whom Bruce Campbell can do no wrong. They'll no doubt find Campbell's latest endeavor nothing short of---to quote one of his most famous characters---groovy." ---"The Onion" " " "One" "of the most delightfully deranged experiences you'll have reading this year. Hail to the king, baby.""" ---"RueMorgue"Campbell, Bruce is the author of 'Make Love--the Bruce Campbell Way ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780312312619 and ISBN 031231261X.
