About this listen
Life is full of choices. Right now, yours is whether or not to buy the autobiography of a mid-grade, kind of hammy actor.
Am I supposed to know this guy? you think to yourself.
No, and that's exactly the point. The truth is that though you might not have a clue who I am, there are countless working stiffs like me out there, grinding away every day at the wheel of fortune.
If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor is my first book, and I invite you to ride with me through the choppy waters of blue collar Hollywood.
Okay, so buy the damned book already!
©2002 Bruce Campbell (P)2010 Bruce Campbellsince he wrote this book we get a lot of info on what his career was like before and after the cult classics.
In pure Bruce style you get a lot of funny stories that are just added to the experience by having the man himself tell you the stories.
I love how this book feels like one long interview with Bruce however there was only one question and it was "Tell me about your life"
if you love Bruce you would very much enjoy the book after all its like listening to an interview with Bruce.

In essence, the Bruce Campbell story is not one of renowned success. It is, instead, a story that dispels the myth of the dream to “make it big”, laying out all of the hurdles and hoops one must leap through in order to achieve even a basic, liveable income. Spoiler alert: It’s fucking hard.
Honestly, it’s the kind of book any creative artist should read. Actor, director, author, whatever. If you’re interested in pursuing a career that’s a bit untraditional, then Bruce Campbell’s autobiography is the grounded piece of reality you need to digest before committing to the long haul. Long days, sleepless nights, moonlighting at second-grade gigs to pay the bills. It’s all in here, right from the horse’s mouth. And it’s all real.
Do yourself a favour though and listen to the auto book, as read by Bruce himself, with little updated anecdotes. It’s a really great experience, and his unforgettable mid-west accent is both magnetic and soothing. The man could read me bedtime stories any night.
Great book!

This is an entertaining and insightful story about the evolution of arguably one of the most significant movies that pioneered the VHS industry, creating home video, DVD and Blu-Ray. Incidentally it is also the story of one of the most underrated genre films that started the careers of many significant players in todays cinema industry,
Bruce should be commended highly for such an entertaining book, both well written and incredibly well read, providing the perfect tone and delivery to his stories and personal history.
Highly recommend to any film buff or fan…
