Description
Director David Gregory reveals the history, controversy and legacy behind one of the most bizarre genres in movie history: Bruceploitation.
THE AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY WITH 3+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES
Within hours of his 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.
