| Editorial Reviews:
Product Description B-movie megastar Bruce Campbell of Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, and Bubba Ho-Tep fame comes to comics with this adaptation of his upcoming feature film. With more talent than you could fit in his freakishly large chin, Campbell not only co-wrote the film with David Goodman, but directed and starred in it as well. However, in order to see his vision realized unadulterated by budgetary constraints, Campbell put the version of the script he wanted to shoot into the hands of artists Rick Remender and Hilary Barta. Man with the Screaming Brain tells the story of a wealthy American businessman determined to exploit the crippled economy of a former Soviet state torn between communist roots and capitalist greed. But when Campbell's character hits on the wrong gypsy girl, he soon finds himself in the grip of a mad scientist with a twisted brain-transplant scheme worthy of Dr. Frankenstein.

graphic novel I received as a gift February 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son gave this GRAPHIC NOVEL to me as a gift about a year ago. I do not usually read graphic novels although I was fond of the Sandman series in my early college years. I was tired today and picked this from my pile of unread books on a whim; I read it swiftly from cover to cover, including the introduction. It certainly was enjoyable in a lighthearted way and the illustrations were fun (although I find it tiresome that the men were, for the most part, misshapen and unattractive while the women were anatomically impossible in typical comic book fashion). Would I have bought this for myself? No...but it made for an interesting half hour! One thing about the words--the ones that were supposed to represent foreign accents were different, with additions to the letter 'o' that made it easier to distinguish the speaker's affect from possible type-o's (no pun intended). Perhaps this is standard practice in the comics industry; I would not know. I have not seen the film which inspired the graphic novel but I think I've seen enough of Bruce Campbell already...
Not one of Bruce Campbell's best films May 28, 2007 1 out of 15 found this review helpful
While this movie does have some funny moments. I would have to say that I did not like it as well as I thought I would. I found it hard to follow in some places and the film seemed to drag on for hours. I am a very big fan of Bruce Campbell, but this I feel was not one of his best projects.
