Within hours of his 1974 funeral, hong kong movie studios began to produce hundreds of unauthorized biopics, spin offs and rip offs starring a competing roster of bruce lee lookalikes. Over the next decade, ‘bruceploitation’ would become a staple of global cinema. Director david gregory – whose award winning documentaries include lost soul the doomed journey of richard stanley’s island of dr. Moreau and blood flesh the reel life ghastly death of al adamson – now examines this fascinating phenomenon via interviews with bruce li, bruce le, bruce liang and dragon lee martial arts legends like angela mao, david chiang, phillip ko and sammo hung and the producers, directors, distributors and experts – along with copious clips from the films themselves – that for the first time reveal the history, controversy and legacy behind one of the most bizarre genres in movie history.
