Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The (fake) brand of liquor that Bruce gives his dog is Shemp's. In some Raimi/Campbell projects, body-doubles and stand-ins are called Fake Shemps, after Shemp Howard of the Three Stooges. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Jeff is supposedly Bruce Campbell's biggest fan, yet he states that Campbell's agent told him not to book Campbell on his birthday, which he apparently did anyway - wouldn't a fan at least know his idol's birthday? more
Quotes:
Bruce Campbell: God, I miss you and the kids.
Cheryl: What kids?
Bruce Campbell: The ones we would have had, if you'd have just hung on!

Author: teenitini from United States

I too obtained a coveted pair of tickets to MNIB....

The plot is basically what it says---a town of goobers kidnaps Bruce Campbell & pins their hopes of defeating the monster thats killing off the town members using all his B-Movie beast killing knowledge etc....Bruce thinks it's a big joke...till the Bean Curd hits the fan!! very slapstick, cornball, digs all over him self as an actor

uses his old lines in new and inventive ways "...and maybe later honey, if your lucky I'll let you look at my BoomStick!" Anyone on the inside of these jokes will get it, love it and want more.... And those hard core haters who tear films to shreds will find plenty to hack on...But they wont get any fodder from me....just trust that if your a Bruce Campbell fan....your gonna buy it, and force your unwilling friends to watch it.
