Het derde seizoen van Ash vs Evil Dead zal over een tijdje weer beginnen in de US, en daar is het tweede seizoen nu van verschenen op Blu-ray. Ter promotie daar van had de website Collider een interview met Bruce Campbell en dit is uiteraard niet een standaard interview. Een klein stukje er van kan je nu hier onder lezen, en bij de bron valt er nog meer te zien. Dus...

Collider: The first season of Ash vs. Evil Dead was so much fun because it was so great just to see this character again, but for Season 2, you really got to play with some of the Evil Dead franchise and past characters, relationships and family. What have you most enjoyed about getting to revisit those things in Season 2?

BRUCE CAMPBELL: Oh, going to Ash's bedroom! It's like seeing a teacher after school. You never knew what Ash's deal was, for the first three movies. He's sort of a college student in the first one, he's like a Vietnam veteran in the second one, and he's sort of the ugly American in the third one, but where does he live and what does he do? Now, we know where he lives, which is in Elk Grove. We bring his sister back and meet his dad, and we realize where Ash got some of his dickishness was from his bigot Cro-Magnon dad. It's so funny that you realize maybe Ash stole some of his lines even. And to get the great Lee Majors, forget it! There was no other guy that I would have wanted to play Ash's dad than Lee Majors. We even made a joke about Ash's mechanical hand. That was great. It puts a personal spin on Ash. It fleshes the character out a little more to see his relationship, aka bad relationship, with his father, and it just makes him more human. If you don't care about your hero when they fight a monster, then what? You've gotta be a little worried that your buddy Ash is gonna die. So, in the middle of him being smarmy and an idiot, he's a son now. And we're going to find out in Season 3 that he's a father. These are the things that round out our character. In television, you have to do that. You have to grow and expand, and that's been the most fun, taking two-dimensional Ash and trying to beat him into a third dimension.

Season 2 had a crazy amount of blood and gore. Where will Season 3 go with that? Do you feel like you have to top last season?

CAMPBELL: In Season 3, we were like, "Let's get back to the myth." I'd say 1/3 of it is humor, 1/3 of it is horror, and now 1/3 of it is mythology. Don't forget there's time travel in these movies, rifts that open up, netherworlds and parallel universes that exist. Season 3 is packed to the rafters and hopefully, when it ends, you'll go, "Holy shit!" For Season 3, buckle up! Nobody is safe in Season 3.
