His Name Is Still Bruce
MTV’s Splashpage has a small article about a comic version of the long-delayed indie film My Name Is Bruce, about Bruce Campbell?playing himself?saving a small town from demons. The comic, although I’m sure it’s perfectly nice (and if you head to Splashpage, they have a 3-page preview). is of less interest than the fact that the movie will finally be released this October. Since I’ve doubled TR‘s readership from 15 to 30 since I last posted the trailer, I thought I’d give you new kids a chance to see the majesty and the wonder.
