Rick Baker and Ken Miller have curated a huge selection of reviews of kung fu and swordplay films, gangster flicks, crime dramas, action, horror, fantasy, erotic, and assorted Category III films, sharing their love for these distinctive, kinetic, and sometimes utterly bizarre Hong Kong genre productions with an infectious enthusiasm.
Ken Miller is a contributor to Eastern Heroes magazine, and was the publisher of Imaginator magazine, which covered horror, fantasy, sci-fi, kung fu and action films, especially those from Hong Kong, as well as co-publisher of Film Extremes magazine. He was the co-creator of the six-part BBC entertainment show Stop! Kung Fu! (2001), a series hosted by Jonathan Ross, featuring a delirious deluge of awesome kung fu movie clips.
He has consulted on the BBC documentary Asian Invasion (2006), and Japanorama (2002), and wrote the screenplay for Kill 'Em All (2012), a martial arts action thriller starring Hong Kong movie royalty Gordon Liu as the kung fu-skilled villain.
