"So, another actor writes a book about their glamorous, whirlwind life. Personally, as an ex-Detroiter, that crap bores me to tears. I’ve always been more interested in the working stiffs of Hollywood, 99% of whom are overlooked in those phony, “tell-all” books. For every Bruce Willis and Steven Spielberg, there are a hundred no-name slobs scraping out a living in this shockingly difficult profession.

"Therefore, this is not a memoir about what I said to so-and-so at the Beverly Hills Hotel. It’s also not about an actor’s “meteoric” rise, or “tragic” fall. Rather, this book is dedicated to the players on the second string, the “B” people, if you will, and I cheerfully include myself in that lot."

Published by St. Martin's Press, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a "B" Movie Actor is an autobiography chronicling the life of Bruce Campbell from his earliest childhood anecdotes to the conclusion of the syndicated series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Witty and down-to-earth, Campbell relates his ascension into obscurity and

   
   

his misadventures as a cult icon.

In addition to the text, If Chins Could Kill is also highly visual, boasting an image on almost every page, including photos and documents from Campbell's archives, screen captures, and original supplemental graphic art by Craig Sanborn.

If Chins Could Kill is available in hardback June 2001.
