Howdy there, Scream Freaks and Happy Halloween! This has been one crazy month with our first attempt at publishing daily videos and blogs to celebrate the premier of Bruce Campbell’s “Ash VS Evil Dead” on Starz Halloween night, but we feel it was worth it. Some dedicated Bruce Campbell fans got to enjoy the highlights of his career everyday this month, we made some people laugh, and even got a positive tweet from the King himself saying, “Let’s do this,” when tagging him in our promo for dedicating this Halloween to the King of B. Then there’s the daily pumpkin spice blog, this year’s Halloween Eeeh!-Card, the season 2 finale with the Ghouligans, etc., etc.
But now Halloween is here, and we’re just chilling. Sure, we’re still wrapping up production for Screaming Soup! Season 3 (premiering 1/20/16), drawing up more promotional art, editing together special advertising vids, and prepping for Season 4 but we think we can take a breather for the holiday. Yup, we’re just going to attend our favorite annual haunt this time of year, pop open a cold one and watch the Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors marathon on FXX while digging into bowls of candy and plates of bat wings and witch fingers.
Other than that, check out all our Bruce Campbell vids from “Bruce VS” to “Bruce Takes It In The Face”, and the popular “Tribute to Bruce Campbell” vid, learn about everything that now comes in pumpkin spice in “Mandy’s I Can’t Believe They Have Pumpkin,” and send someone special a Halloween Eeeh!-Card this holiday. And of course, play any and all of Screaming Soup! Seasons 1-2 this Halloween, no matter where you are and help get the word out about the web’s #1 animated horror show!

So, a happy and safe Halloween to all you Scream Freaks out there. May your costumes be fun and slutty, your parties never be forgotten, and your cars be vomit free by the end of the night. I’ll see ya later, Scream Freaks!
Wow! Halloween is almost here and there’s so much going on it’s nuts! First off, in response to our excitement over the all new Ash VS Evil Dead TV series premiering 10/31/15 on the Starz network, we’re still continuing our month long celebration of Bruce Campbell with daily “Bruce VS” vids in all their video game parody glory, a tribute video highlighting the King of B’s 30+ years in acting, and an all NEW Bruce Campbell Death Reel countdown with our favorite death being the one that made us laugh the hardest! We’re also continuing our 31 days of Pumpkin Spice hell with “Mandy’s I Can’t Believe They Have Pumpkin,” and drew up an all NEW Screaming Soup! Halloween Eeeh-Card! for this year!
Lot to take in, right? But there’s more! For those who didn’t read the blog last week, we’re having some special guests briefly bounce back from retirement to make a cameo in the Season 2 finale of Screaming Soup!, the Ghouligans! These guys have been rocking and howling the west coast for the last 10 years (Click HERE for their Youtube channel), but sadly hung up their capes and fangs just a few months ago. Luckily, the magic of animation can’t be denied and they were more than happy to attend our Halloween blowout! Extreme pumpkin carving, Halloween hottie contests, bobbing for grenades, mechanical devil bull riding, and all while reviewing the Slumber Party Massacre Series! It’s going to be a treat for all Scream Freaks and Ghouligan fans alike!
Other than that, keep checking back here every day for more “Bruce Campbell VS” and “Mandy’s I Can’t Believe They Have Pumpkin,” and be sure to catch up on all the latest Screaming Soup! episodes so far for season 2 before seeing the season finale 10/20/15 with special guests, the Ghouligans (www.theghouligans.com)!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! October been fun for ya yet? Seen Eli Roth’s Green Inferno or picked up the new Trick ‘r Treat comic? Or more importantly, have you been enjoying our chuckle inducing “Bruce Campbell VS” videos? Better be, because with the excitement building for the premier of the all new Ash VS Evil Dead on the Starz network Halloween night, we’re continuing our celebration of the king of B everyday this month!
When you stop to think about it, what does it take to be the king of B movies? Most of us have this narrow perception of Bruce Campbell’s cult status based solely on his involvement in the Evil Dead franchise, with respectable nods to his others works like Xena: Warrior Princess, The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., and Bubba Ho-Tep. but these are just 4 roles he’s played out of 100+ credits!
Bruce was fortunate enough to play more than one memorable character that immortalizes him in comics, action figures, video games, art, and fan favorite countdowns till the end of days, but its the entirety of his diverse work that truly earns him the credit as the king of the B movies. For the last 30 years, he’s played a baby snatching demon, been killed by cyborgs on the moon, fought Napoleon as a 19th century superhero, liberated slaves from alien oppression, battled Angus Scrimm into a meat grinder, raced Herbie the Lovebug to a photo finish . . . the list goes on and on! With Bruce returning to the role that first made him a star, we took it upon ourselves to celebrate his amazing career in movies with this edition of Screaming Tribute!
The video below contains at least one clip from nearly every piece of cinematic work Bruce has performed in. You’ll see shots from his humble Super-8 beginnings all the way to the blockbusters he stars in today. We even included clips from the cartoons and video games he’s humorously voiced as well as commercials he hammed up. We only left out his Coen brother appearances where he was barley seen in the backgrounds, voice over work that didn’t have enough (if any) of his appearance, and only a handful of obscure movies and TV shows that most aren’t even aware of.
Other than that, keep checking back here every day for more “Bruce Campbell VS” and “Mandy’s I Can’t Believe They Have Pumpkin,” and be sure to catch up on all the latest Screaming Soup! episodes so far for season 2 before seeing the season finale 10/20/15 with special guests, the Ghouligans (www.theghouligans.com)!

Bruce Campbell filmography included in this tribute:
Howdy there, Scream Freaks! It’s the 20th of the month and that means brand spanking new Screaming Soup! for your sick pleasure! Yessiree, mark this day on your calendars because this episode is the turning point for the series. Why, you might ask? Because we’re very responsive to all your feedback and realized we’ve been starting to hit a predictable rut with our reviews.
Not so much the reviews themselves, understand, because the show must have some structure to it, but we found some Scream Freaks starting to fast forward through the endings of the animated segments. We were surprised but figured out it’s because there’s rarely any conflict among the characters for you to be eager to see resolved by the end of the episode . . . until now. The return of Buzzkill will be setting off a lot of big events in the Screaming Soup! universe that will not only be snowballing over into the next season debuting in 2016 but the next 2 seasons following that!
Big stuff, huh? And now that its close enough to time, we’re officially announcing our plans for making October the month to celebrate Bruce aka #celebruce! We’re so excited about the new Ash Vs Evil Dead TV series on Starz premiering Halloween night, we’re celebrating B movie king Bruce Campbell everyday like only we can with all new Screaming Soup! videos highlighting his crazy career in movies and television for the past 30+ years! We can’t wait, and are certain its going to fun for all you Scream Freaks!
Other than that, be sure to catch up on all the latest Screaming Soup! episodes so far for season 2!

That’s pretty much it for now, so I’ll see ya’ later Scream Freaks!
Howdy there, Scream Freaks! You know, sometimes these weekly updates are hard to do, because we work on future episodes so far in advance and don’t want to prematurely tip our hand to what’s coming just yet. The secondary vids, however, are pretty much being produced in the “now” and can sometimes feel rushed when we know it’s time for a new Graphic Violence or Remake Remix to be posted.
With October coming up, we wanted to do something fun for us to produce and for you to watch (obviously, because who are we without you?). With all the excitement over the premier of the new Evil Dead TV series Halloween night, Screaming Soup! has decided to dedicate the site to everything Bruce Campbell! We’ve had little to some minor success with our series of “Bruce Campbell Takes It In The Face” vids that spotlight all the gooey low blows Bruce takes on the chin in his movies, but these new vids will be less demeaning and should really register with the fans. We’ve been up all hours of the day, hurrying to pull together a daily visual celebration of not just a single movie or cult favorite franchise but the entirety of Bruce’s career from his Super 8 days to now. It’s been a tiring marathon to get all these done while trying to stay on track with Screaming Soup!’s animation schedule, but it’s going to be worth it and you won’t be disappointed!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! The summer has certainly blown right past us, and Halloween is just on the horizon. Yessir, before you know it, we’ll be seeing tombstones in people’s yards, ghosts in our windows, and truckloads of candy and shitty costumes in the stores! Let’s keep our fingers crossed we’ll be getting some great new horror to entertain us this October which sounds a little lacking so far. Rest assured we’re hard at work pulling together a new series of funny vids to pump out through most of October that’ll tie into our countdown to the highly anticipated “Ash VS Evil Dead” on the Starz network. You could call it our month long shout out to Bruce Campbell and it’ll be one you want to check out when its time.
Other than that, everything is going well with the show. We’re putting the final touches on some upcoming episodes we’re excited to show featuring the return of (bum, bum, buuuuuuummmm) Buzzkill, currently editing the next Graphic Violence vid for 9/10/15, and on track for preparing Screaming Soup! Season 3 for release in Jan’16. Some really great things are coming, and we’re glad you loyal fans are here to see it!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! It’s finally happening! Bruce Campbell returns to the role that made him the king of B 10/31/15 in “Ash vs Evil Dead” on the Starz network! For years, I’ve been ridiculed that this would never happen, but now those neh-sayers can suck a fat one. We’ve had Evil Dead aka Army of Darkness comics, musicals, and a re-make to help pass the time these last 20+ years with, but now we get the legit continuance of Ash’s journey that made him arguably the greatest horror movie hero of all time.
What’s even better is the involvement of Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi who’ll be directing the first episode of what looks to be a kick-ass series full of epic fights and storyline. This definitely makes up for all those times Sam Raimi pissed me off over the years when I’d watch movies of his post “Army of Darkness” like “Drag Me to Hell” that could have easily been made into an “Evil Dead” sequel. Not to mention all those times he’d tease/acknowledge horror fans with his Evil Dead antics briefly popping up in other movies he’d directed, like that scene in “Spider-Man 2” when Doc Ock’s tentacles are killing everyone in the operation room. That scene had me wishing they had cast Bruce Campbell as the surgeon fighting his tentacles with the chainsaw instead of the doorman who keeps Spider-Man from a date.
Now, there are some who are probably disappointed that they’re producing a TV series as opposed to a full fledge/high budget movie, but I think this is better. We’ve been waiting decades for more adventures with Ash, and this allows us to really be involved with the character and take our time with him instead of a wham bam thank you ma’m hour and a half on a movie screen until who knows when! We’ve been really pumped about this, and our heads are about to explode after seeing the trailer they released which can be seen below.
Other than that, that’s all we really have to talk about right now. Be sure you’re caught up with the rest of Screaming Soup! Season 2 and come back here 7/20/15 for the next exciting episode of Screaming Soup!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Well, you didn’t ask for it, but you got it! I’m talk’n about 4 more Screaming Soup! Presents Bruce Campbell Takes It In The Face! With all the buzz surrounding the long awaited follow up tothe Evil Dead series this fall on the Starz network, we couldn’t help but re-watch our favorite Bruce Campbell moments in what can easily be disputed as horror’s most successful offbeat series.
Now, it’s no secret director Sam Raimi gets his jollies beating the shit out of Campbell in his movies, but we never really noticed before just how much of these gags land square on his iconic chin. When you see them all at once, it’s fucking hysterical! That’s when we got to thinking and looked for other movies where Campbell’s “Oh!” face served as a bullseye for gore, inspiring an idea for some comedic videos. After succesful research combined with the whole psycho babble about sexual subtext in the horror genre, we present these awkward moments in a hilarious new light with the vids right below. (Click HERE to see Bruce Campbell Takes It In The Face part 1-3)
