I
previously purchased the one-shot or whatever it
was for the Man with the Screaming Brain and was
let down by it. I watched the movie and
immediately regret doing that as well. But there
is something in my heart that will always have a
place for Bruce Campbell.
But at a time in my life where I'm starting to
question why Kevin Smith can't grow up, why are
Cheech and Chong getting back together, I'm
stuck here, reading this, and thinking, why?
There is zero point to this book, and I will
explain why.
It is a 22 page one-shot based on an upcoming
movie that tells the story so succinctly that
you're left questioning why you wasted 3.50 on
this book. You're also left hoping that the
movie is better than this, otherwise it will be
the same scenario, only you will either waste a
precious Saturday night watching this on the
Sci-fi network or 10 dollars in a local theater
(IF it comes out to any theaters).
The story is simple: stupid kid unleashes demon
on stupid town. Stupid kid idolizes Bruce
Campbell. Stupid kid kidnaps Bruce and brings
him to the town to fight the demon. Bruce fights
demon.
Nutshell.
Along the way, Bruce acts cowardly, people die,
Bruce decides to act like a hero so the boy
doesn't have to lose his idol. And there are
some Chinese railroad worker ghosts and bean
curd.
It's all fairly stupid.
Honestly. There really isn't much to say. I'm
left questioning why the cover is a drawn cover
by Bart Sears when it could have easily been the
movie poster used as the cover, and in all
reality, it would probably sell more copies had
it used that method as well.
So to sum up, don't waste your money. If you're
still interested, DVR it once it's on Sci-fi and
just skip the commercials. At least then it's
not 2 hours of your life you just wasted. Or
3.50 even.
