Spike TV’s Scream Awards took place this weekend (the show airs on television on October 23rd at 10:00pm) and a few industry folk showed their faces and talked about some possible upcoming movie sequels. Our friends at Bloody Disgusting have full coverage, but here is a rundown of the cool tidbits:
Edgar Wright says that if they make a Hot Fuzz sequel the title will probably be Hot Fuzz 2: Pigs in the City. He also revealed that he will in fact be directing a trailer for Eli Roth’s Trailer Trash, but it won’t be a sequel to DON’T (but now that you mention it, what a great idea).
Bruce Campbell announced that Image Entertainment is releasing My Name is Bruce in select theaters and on home video in 2008. The movie follows B Movie Legend Bruce Campbell as himself, as he is mistaken for his character Ash from the Evil Dead trilogy and forced to fight a real monster in a small town in Oregon. But the big news is that a sequel is already in the works called My Name Is Still Bruce. I’m down.

The sequel should have been “My Name is Not Bruce.”
In sequel, character Ash Williams is mistaken for actor Bruce Campbell. Confusion occurs when monster slayer is hired to act in horror movie. After unwittingly slaying animatronic creatures and the like, Ash and movie set finds itself under siege from real monsters. Ash soon finds the Necronomicon was being used as a movie prop and must stop Hollywood from being devoured by deadites. But he soon finds the real Bruce Campbell may have other plans.

Just wanted to say Seth’s idea is brilliant. There are, apparently, far too many lousy screenwriters taking up space in Hollywood if a single blog comment can so easily top any script idea I’ve heard in the last five years.
