The official Ash vs. Evil Dead account on FunnyorDie.com has uploaded a bloody promotional video for the show that features the great Bruce Campbell demonstrating The Dangers of Having a Chainsaw for a Hand – and Campbell isn’t playing his iconic character Ash Williams here, he’s playing himself, discussing the messes he gets into because of his chainsaw prosthetic. He really does have a chainsaw for hand, you know?
Written and directed by Andrew Bowser, The Dangers of Having a Chainsaw for a Hand definitely qualifies for a Funny vote in my opinion, as it’s always amusing to watch Bruce Campbell just Bruce it up.
Campbell’s co-stars in this short (it runs just 3 minutes) include Steve Szlaga, Madeline Walter, Brittany Furlan, and… this is especially cool… Campbell’s fellow genre superstar Barbara Crampton.
It’s awesome to watch the stars of THE EVIL DEAD and RE-ANIMATOR interact, and hopefully this will serve as a prelude to Crampton landing a role on Ash vs. Evil Dead.
Season two of Ash vs. Evil Dead premieres on Starz on Sunday, October 2nd at 8pm.
