Over 200 photos. n nOkay, so at least you're interested enough to pick up this book and look inside.

I think you and I are going to get along just fine. n nLife is full of choices. Right now, yours is whether or not to buy the autobiography of a mid-grade, kind of hammy actor. n nAm I supposed to know this guy? you think to yourself. n nNo, and that's exactly the point. Bookstores are chock full of household name actors and their high stakes shenanigans.

I don't want to be a spoilsport, but we've all been down that road before. n nCase in point: look to your left

• •see that Judy Garland book? You don't need that, you know plenty about her already
• •great voice, crappy life. Now look to your right at the Charlton Heston book. You don't need to cough up hard-earned dough for that either. You know his story too
• •great voice, crappy toupee. n nThe truth is that though you might not have a clue who I am, there are countless working stiffs like me out there, grinding away every day at the wheel of fortune. n nIf Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor is my first book, and I invite you to ride with me through the choppy waters of blue collar Hollywood. n nOkay, so buy the damned book already and read like the wind! n nBest, nBruce Campbell n nP.S. If the book sucks, at least there are gobs of pictures, and they're not crammed in the middle like all those other actor books.n
