After decades in front of the camera, horror icon Bruce Cambell<\/strong> made his feature directorial debut with 2005\u2019s Man with the Screaming Brain and followed it up with 2007\u2019s My Name Is Bruce.<\/p>\n

Nearly 20 years later, Campbell has returned to the director\u2019s chair for a heartfelt comedy titled Ernie & Emma<\/strong>. Watch the trailer below.<\/p>\n

Campbell wrote, directed, and stars in the indie film, which he also produced alongside his wife, Ida Gearon.<\/p>\n

The poignant story follows Ernie Tyler, a small-town pear salesman who embarks on the journey following the death of his beloved wife, Emma.<\/p>\n

After 25 years as an executive secretary, Emma leaves behind a detailed list of instructions regarding her ashes, which leads Ernie on a series of challenging and reflective escapades across Pear Valley, Oregon.<\/p>\n

As Ernie navigates the road trip of their lives, Emma helps him confront his grief and encourages him to move forward, transforming his life in the process.<\/p>\n

Cerina Vincent<\/strong> (Cabin Fever) co-stars as Campbell\u2019s newfound love interest, while Robin McAlpine<\/strong> provides the voice of the late Emma. The cast also includes frequent collaborator Ted Raimi<\/strong> (Evil Dead 2) and Sam Raimi\u2019s daughter Emma Raimi<\/strong> (Send Help).<\/p>\n

The film\u2019s crew features cinematographer Kurt Rau (My Name Is Bruce), editor Kaye Davis (Evil Dead II), and composer Joseph LoDuca (Evil Dead trilogy).<\/p>\n

Ernie & Emma will premiere at the Holly Theatre<\/a> in Medford, Oregon, on February 14. Campbell will take the film on a nationwide tour later this year, including screenings at Alamo Drafthouse locations with live Q&As.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
