This time around he is gearing up to star in a sequel to the aforementioned stinker, titled Bruce Campbell Vs Frankenstein.<\/p>\n<p>So no Bubba Nosferatu for us, then.<\/p>\n<p>This is very frustrating news, as just by reading Campbell\u2019s awesomely titled autobiography \u2013 If Chins Could Kill: Confessions Of A B Movie Actor \u2013 you get the feeling he is a star without pretensions, and is totally dedicated to his fans. So why he has departed a Bubba Ho-Tep sequel (the beginnings of a potential horror franchise) is beyond me. If he simply wanted to try something different, then that would be understandable. But the fact is he followed Bubba Ho-Tep up with My Name Is Bruce, and is now embarking on a sequel. This is his new franchise, it seems. I\u2019m in no way implying that actors should star in films that the fans want them to feature in, but it is a little dubious on Campbell\u2019s part that he has closed down talks on a Bubba Ho-Tep sequel in favour of something weaker.<\/p>\n<p>Without Campbell as the King, director Don Coscarelli is going to have to dig deep in order to get this troubled sequel off the ground. But will a follow-up work without Campbell?
