...it's worth watching from beginning to end, because-yes, he has no trouble laughing at himself...Y'know, we did see part of it before we had to call it a night, and his self-satire was just a riot (if I've got the right movie in mind).

Bruce Campbell is a guy I want to have a beer with. He was a chunk of the reasons we liked Burn Notice so much.
...indeed, and if you haven't seen Bubba Ho-Tep....oh you must...
...I will add that one to my "must view" list...and man that would have been great-if those two had been around for the Sematary project...Seen it! Own it on DVD!
Have you seen My Name Is Bruce? Hysterical!
I read somewhere that Tom Savini was originally supposed to direct Pet Sematary with Bruce cast as Dr. Creed. Supposedly it fell apart because Savini had a conflict with directing the NOTLD remake and Bruce was filming Army of Darkness. Maybe just rumor but that would have been way better than the Mary Lambert film with what's his name as Dr Creed.
They Live is on the docket for Saturday night!
An American Werewolf In London is getting a screening on 10/27.
The main attractions for the Halloween marathon are the original Frankenstein and The Lost Boys. There will also be 4 or 5 other movies playing that night. Not sure if I can commit to that show but we'll see!

That is a semi-guilty pleasure of mine, and "semi" from the fact that it's too gruesome for Grandma to like (she's a kind, gentle soul) and my other friends that I've brought to a viewing just don't "get" it.
To me, it's so dry in parts, so self-satirizing in parts, it just sends me into cinematic observational joy. It's not perfect. The ending sequence is overbaked about 20 degrees.
But it's just so full of humor and intentional absurdity and nuance that I just can't help but love it.
