I think the edition of Incredibly Strange Film show on the Evil Dead DVD is edited, as the original running times of the programme (without ads) is around the 45 minute mark. I got them all on VHS recorded directly off air from the original broadcasts (but they are in the UK). I'm having them transfered to DVD so hopefully I can get the full version of the episode to anyone who wants to use it.

Ah great I've got the original aswell I know it includes clips of Within The Woods and many of the other short films. As for this Evil Dead 2 WP I should be getting it soon and it seems it's not just a dub of the home video.

The remake of "The Love Bug" could be added as it is only available as a OOP VHS. It has Bruce Campbell as the main star.

That reminds me of something Bruce said when he was introducing a screening of Man With the Screaming Brain that I saw, when he was bitching about how all the summer movies that year were remakes:

"War of the Worlds? Well, the book was written in 1898 and the original was 1953. Looks like they do this every fifty years. Herbie? They've remade that so many times, I've been in it."

I was reading through Bruce's IMDB page and figured I'd make a list of his TV show cameos (excluding ones he was in as a main character or was in a lot eg. Ellen) Some of these may be gems worth tracking down for the set.

"Megas XLR"
- The Return (2004) TV Episode (voice) .... Magnanimous
- Battle Royale (2004) TV Episode (voice) .... Magnaminous

"My Life as a Teenage Robot"
- Daydream Believer/This Time with Feeling (2003) TV Episode (voice) .... Himcules

"Duck Dodgers"
... aka Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century (USA: long title)
- K-9 Kaddy/Pig of Action (2003) TV Episode (voice) .... Pork Piggler

"Charmed"
- Witch Way Now? (2002) TV Episode .... FBI Agent Jackman

"The Legend of Tarzan"
... aka Disney's the Legend of Tarzan (USA: complete title)
- Tarzan and One Punch Mullargan (2001) TV Episode (voice) .... Max Liebling

"Beggars and Choosers"
- The Long Goodbye (2001) TV Episode .... Jack

Your list of films on that compilation is missing Six Months to Live.

I got my copy from ReverendBeastly and it has that on there (and Within the Woods) ... the quality is shit but better than an old VHS I had I think.

As far as the makers of Evil Dead 2 know, the legendary deleted scenes from Evil Dead 2 don't exist anywhere anymore, like the Evil Ed cut in half attack scene. There was also some material shot in S-Mart for Army of Darkness featuring an asshole boss, which probably doesn't exist either.

If you've got 6 Months to live I'd love to see that on the set - the only short I know of in circulation that's missing from my comp collection.

I just got a DVD of Crimewave today, got it for £2 on ebay and it's an official region 2 UK PAL release, looks like a decent transfer and it's widescreen - no extras features though (the XYZ Murders trailer is still a rarity then I guess) there seem to be a lot of different releases of Crimewave, just plug it into ebay - go for next to nothing either.

I read through the list of films Bruce has been in on IMDB and his own site and I'm wondering more and more, what say people to a disc compiling all his short cameos? He's done so many you could easily put together a cool little disc of all his 30 second screen time parts (and means you don't have to sit through some shitty movie for a flash of the main man). I didn't realise he appeared on Robot Chicken either, his 2 sketches would be cool aditions.

I got to meet Bruce on his book signing tour, he's funny as hell.
I've collected some BCTV stuff, I have all of the Xena's he's in, the First Hercules, both Megas XLR episodes, the Charmed Episode, The X-Files episode, the American Gothic Episode, he was on a Robot Chicken episode - got that, and I also have a Reboot episode where they go inside a game where they fight zombies and it's set in an Evil Dead level complete with an Ash-looking character who says "Groovy". I also have "The Blind Waiter" but it's RM(I think), and i have to look, but I know i have within the woods, and some other early Raimi films that might have him in it. If you can't tell, i'm a huge fan of his.

If you need the disc with Six Months to Live etc on it, contact me or ReverendBeastly. The quality might also be better than what you've got, who knows.

Bruce was a bright spot in the otherwise awful The Majestic.

Crimewave stinks.

Wanna know what's really awesome? The mini-film that Bruce is in in The Majestic is a bonus feature by itself on the DVD. You don't have to wallow through all the other crap in that movie now!

Awesome.

An actor named David Maddox, who starred in my film Gods of Los Angeles, was an extra in The Majestic, and got the impression that Darabont had some decent ideas but Jim Carrey wanted to do it his own way.

Got Within The Woods from CharlieSheen's friend. The best I've ever seen but not great. It's good though because this was a source for most if not all of the other copies in circulation. Here's some caps if needed for this set please pm me.

Yeah, that's WAY better than any of the copies I've seen. I'd love to get a copy of that sometime!

Very cool you got Bill's DVD! What else is on the disc? Do you think any colour and sound tweaking could make it(them?) any more watchable?

Invader Tim: What format do you have all these in? I'd certainly love to see them (even if they don't make it onto the project).

The Robot Chicken episode he's in is called Dragon Balls - can be found doing regular torrent site hunts. What do people think about a Bruce cameos disc for the project?

Damn. I want a copy of Within the Woods that looks like that! Watchability.


Campbell cameos good idea, keep at it.

Cool, Well I've done a skim through IMDB and here's a list of films Bruce has a cameo or (I think) a very small role in. A lot of these I've not seen, so if Bruce is in them a lot then they could be taken off the list. I'm wondering - did his scenes from The Quick And The Dead ever see the light of day?

Sky High (2005) .... Coach Boomer
Spider-Man 2 (2004) .... Snooty Usher
The Ladykillers (2004) (uncredited) .... Humane Society Worker
Intolerable Cruelty (2003) (uncredited) .... Soap opera actor on TV
Drugs (2003) (V) .... Bruce
Spider-Man (2002) .... Ring Announcer
The Majestic (2001) .... Roland the Intrepid Explorer
From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money (1999) (V) .... Barry
Escape from L.A. (1996) .... Surgeon General of Beverly Hills
Menno's Mind (1996) .... Mick Dourif, Rebel Leader
Congo (1995) .... Charles Travis, R.B.'s Son
The Demolitionist (1995) (uncredited) .... Raffle Winner
The Quick and the Dead (1995) (scenes deleted) .... Wedding Shemp
The Hudsucker Proxy (1994) .... Smitty, Argus Reporter
Eddie Presley (1992) .... Asylum Attendant
Darkman (1990) .... Final Shemp
The Dead Next Door (1988) (voice)

Also, has anyone got a copy of the documentary Bruce did called A Community Speaks? I've never heard of it before.

Everything I have is either XVID or DIVX with the exceptions of Within The Woods(mpeg) and the Blind Waiter(rm). American Gothic Came out on DVD not to long ago, that's why I have that one, but i might have it's broadcast version. I thought I had kept the Blind Waiter with WTW but I can't find it now (Though, I don't have real player installed on this computer, so I have no idea what all my RM files are). I know at one point I had "Revenge of the Helping Hand" but I can't find that anywhere. And I swear I had that version of WTW but I can't find that either (granted, that ones going back a couple years, and I have 450+ CDs/DVDs filled with stuff. Back then I would label my CDs with "Stuff" and "Movie Stuff" which is no help to me now).

Good lord as soon as I posted this, I popped in a random CD and it had "the Blind Waiter" on it. It also has on it a video taken by one of the Crew on the set of Army of Darkness - no Bruce, but some of Sam Directing and shots of props and such.

From that list of cameos, I'd say you should probably cut Sky High and the Hudsucker Proxy out of the running, he's got some pretty decent screentime in both of those. Hudsucker may be debatable, but he definitely has a substantial role in Sky High.

Of the other stuff on that list, I can provide his short cameo from The Ladykillers and also the isolated version of the feature-within-a-feature that was in The Majestic.
