?Many films tried to capitalize on the popularity of Bruce Lee. Some amped up the craziness as far as it would go. Others played it straight, delivering seriously good films. At its best, Bruceploitation was some of the most uninhibited and exciting martial arts cinema of the age.?

"Hours after Bruce Lee?s death, Bruceploitation was born. And for the next 10 years, talented martial artists were enlisted to mimic iconic aspects of Lee?s life, style and mannerisms. Fueled by equal parts deception and demand, these films instead created one of the most wildly entertaining sub-genres in movie history. THE GAME OF CLONES: BRUCEPLOITATION COLLECTION VOLUME 1 now presents 14 of the very best ? and frequently very bizarre ? films starring Bruce Li, Bruce Le, Dragon Lee, Bruce Liang and more, all restored for the first time ever from original elements. Then in the ?fascinating gem of a documentary? (Culture Mix) ENTER THE CLONES OF BRUCE, director David Gregory tracks down the surviving Bruces ? along with martial arts legends, producers, directors, distributors, historians and more ? to reveal the entire shocking and bittersweet saga behind a celluloid phenomenon that still refuses to die."
