Influences can be hard to come by but one that grabbed filmmaker and actor Michael Worth very early on was the strange and fantastic world of Bruce Lee rip off movies, which he affectionately termed Bruceploitation in a letter published in a martial arts magazine back in the early 80s. Like many, lured into the cinema of what he thought would be a Bruce Lee inclusive film, a new cinema world was opened to Worth. To be sure, slap-dash money grabbing productions but also highly entertaining fight sequences, classic movie lines and bold cinematic conjectures of a growing martial arts legend. This book is a massive, nearly 20 year project that is the first comprehensive book ever written exclusively on the genre itself as well as its many influences and inspirations on the author’s own life as a filmmaker and martial artist. Part biography, part historical document this long awaited “Bruceploitation Bible” features never before published first hand accounts and insight of the once silent voices of the actual filmmakers and artists that made the films. The invaluable content of Worth’s around the world tour to live, train and interview with these classic action heroes will be available for the first time in this book of passion. This long overdue information is truly a lifetime of work and a personal examination of the genre that refuses to die!
