I saw a YouTube short the other day of Bruce Campbell talking about how there’s this stereotype in acting where the good-guy actors are all pieces of shit, and the bad-guy actors are all the nicest people you’ve ever met.
Does it hold up? I’ve specifically avoided it as an adult because I was worried it wouldn’t. Ash vs. Evil Dead is fantastic if you haven’t seen it, btw.
It’s kind of true for horror. Kane Hodder and Gunnar Hansen are/were very gracious to fans and really seem/ed to enjoy being icons of the genre.
Most of the actors I’ve met who played a lead role in horror movies tended to be bitter and snide towards the fans. A lot of weird spiritual delusions, too. The amount of times I’ve stuck listening to how they can see real ghosts or how horror can negatively effect my aura and shit like that from these people is fucking weird.
Yep they all seem to go batshit insane sooner or later. Really sad.

Brisco County Jr. was a good guy. Dang, now I gotta dig out those DVD’s.

Cognitive decline leading them to adopt ideologies that don’t require them to think too hard
Sadly, it’s profitable.
