About this movie

Whenever acclaimed martial arts film director Liu Chia-liang directs his half-brother Gordon Liu Chia-hui as a Shaolin monk hero, it's guaranteed that the film will not only become a classic but that it will rock the very foundation of martial arts cinematic culture. Disciples Of The 36th Chamber is no exception to the rule. Gordon Liu Chia-hui reprises his famed role as Shaolin Monk San Te, the real life Shaolin hero that created the 36th Chamber of Shaolin. In this film, San Te protects other real life Shaolin hero Fang Shih-yu (Hsiao Hou), who seems to enjoy stepping on the wrong Manchu foot at the right time. As always with director Liu Chia-liang, the final fight scene leaves you gawking in wild-eyed wonderment.

Ratings and reviews

Me and the crew grew up watching Shaw Bros. Kung Fu flicks on channel 5 here in NYC way back in the day; They're just as great now as they were then...!

THE MOVIE IS VERY GOOD 👍 GREAT FIGHT SCENES. BUT WHY ARE WE PAYING FOR MOVIES FROM 1985 THAT USE TO BE FREE TO WATCH?

I love all his movies
