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 yet to be formally released. Despite having had many 'premiere showings' across the country (one of the most recent in San Francisco in Dec 2008), as early 2009, the DVD rights have only been sold in the European territories. A date for U.S. DVD released has yet to be scheduled.

The Following guns were used in the film:

AMT Hardballer Longslide

• Bruce Campbell uses an AMT Hardballer to great effect during the first assault on the monster (never removing the sales tag from the gun). Unfortunately he ends up shooting most of the townspeople by mistake...

Bruce Campbell (showing bad gun safety as he talks, something which bothers the town's mayor (to the left), wields an AMT Hardballer Longslide M1911 (it even has the sales tag on the gun identifying the make and model) - 45 ACP. In this scene he refers to his weapon as a "31 Longbow" prompting the gunstore owner to whisper "It's a .45 long slide!"

Stevens Double Barreled Shotgun

• Displayed by the town's gunshop owner and checked out by Bruce Campbell, the shotgun eventually ends up in the hands of another townsperson.

Bruce Campbell checks out the Stevens Side by Side exposed Hammer shotgun - 12 ga.

J.C. Higgins Model 20 Shotgun

• As seen on the wall of the gunshop behind it's proprietor. As an design element, this has to be one of the most 'low rent' representations of a 'gun store' I've seen. The Long guns are just propped up against the wall in cubby holes with no racks to hold them in place.

The Gun Shop owner prepares the Stevens Side by Side exposed Hammer shotgun to hand to Bruce Campbell. Behind him are a J.C. Higgins Model 20 Shotgun, a milled receiver AK47 and an M14 (probably an M1A semi auto rifle)

Milled receiver AK-47

• Seen on the wall of the gunstore. It could be a Poly Technologies Legend or one of the recent U.S. made receiver built up guns.

M14 Rifle

• Seen on the wall of the gunstore. It could be an M1A or other semiautomatic M14 clone.

Various handguns

• Seen in the glass case of the gunstore where the town holds an impromptu meeting. The makes and models can't be determined from this shot.The four that is the most focused are, from left to right, a stainless commander sized 1911 with pearl grips,a ruger sp101, second gen fullsized glock, and a s&w revolver.

Of course the reason Bruce's Marlin 336C rifle doesn't fire is that he still has the safety on - .30-30 caliber
