My Name Is Bruce is an independent horror comedy that satirizes the career of B-Movie actor Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead / Army of Darkness). In the film, a desperate town hires Bruce Campbell to be their monster hunter, as an ancient Chinese Demon wreaks havoc on their lives. Bruce Campbell (playing himself) agrees, thinking it is some sort of movie or PR gig. Little does he realize that he is really being hired to fight a real monster.
This movie premiered at the Ashland Film Festival in 2007, however, it had problems getting a release date in the United States for a long time. Despite having had many 'premiere showings' across the country (one in San Francisco as late as Dec 2008), as January 2009, the DVD rights have only been sold in the European territories. Finally the American DVD was released (without any fanfare, nor advertising) to U.S. DVD market in February 2009.
