March 26, 2009Did i needed to be reminded by Bruce Campbell how many bad movies he got to be in? The answer is "NO".Perhaps some Bruce Campbell fans think he's the greatest actor & nothing can't go wrong.Just found this movie silly & not funny.Nothing against Bruce,he was great on Evil Dead,but is been a long time...
