Convinced the only one that can save the town and stop the murderous ghost is the heroic Bruce Campbell, Jeff (Taylor Sharpe) kidnaps the actor. But when faced with a real supernatural menace, and not some ridiculous rubber-suited monster, Bruce runs away screaming like a little girl. Will Bruce Campbell rise to the occasion and become the type of hero he's become famous for playing, or will he simply go back to being in low-rent movies most people have never heard of?
If you're a fan of Bruce Campbell (or at least if you know who he is), you'll love this film. This is one of the few films made to be a cult film that has a good chance of succeeding at it.
Two unexpected minor characters in the film are a gay couple. Though they fit some stereotypes, and fun is poked at them for being gay, it is not malicious and is an enjoyable part of the film. The two men do help battle the monster.
