Horror icon Bruce Campbell isn’t shy about showing off his bloody face, although he is being a bit understated about it. In a response to a tweet from Star Trek alum William Shatner, who asked, “How is everyone?“, Campbell responded with a photo of his face, bloodied and cut, complete with a simple message: “Frankly, Bill, I’m a little sticky…”
Campbell is busy filming the upcoming STARZ series “Ash Vs. Evil Dead“, which is shooting in New Zealand.
The show’s synopsis read:
Campbell will be reprising his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons –personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its “Evil” grip.
