> CLASSIC SCREENING
Bruce Lee has just died, but the British Government swings into action to salvage the situation with DNA taken from the martial arts master to create 3 adult Bruce Lee clones. After undergoing training to bring their skills up to the level of their 'father', the 3 are sent out to fight international crime, with one sent to take on a gold smuggler, and the other 2 teaming up to shut down an evil mad scientist.
By far one of the most wacky attempts at exploitation filmmaking ever imagined, it’s known as the "The Mount Rushmore of Bruceploitation films" and stars three of the key Lee imitators who sprang up after the icon's death (including Dragon Lee, Bruce Le and Bruce Lai), alongside performers from the real Lee's films and other veterans of the Hong Kong movie industry.
