Shaolin and Wu Tang is a
1983 film directed by
Hong Kong martial artist
Gordon Liu. The film is about the rivalry between the martial arts schools Shaolin and Wu Tang. It is also called
Shaolin Vs. Wu-Tang in the
Master Killer Collection.
Master Liu and Master Law are rival masters of
Shaolin style
kung fu and Wu-Tang style sword fighting, running schools in the same city. Their top students, Chao Fung-wu (
Adam Cheng) and
Hung Jun-kit (Gordon Liu), are actually close friends, with Jun-kit's sister, Yan-ling, having a crush on Fung-wu. After observing the two students fighting at a brothel, two of the local
Qing Lord's (
Wang Lung Wei) soldiers report the power of the styles to him.
The Lord determines that the two styles are dangerous and that he must learn both.
After poisoning Master Law and having Yan-ling killed, the Qing
Lord is able to learn both Wu-Tang Sword style and Shaolin
Chin kang fist from a spy. Fung-wu and Jun-kit both return to their respective temples for training as a priest and a monk, respectively. Jun-kit hopes to avenge his sister's death, and Fung-wu wants to avenge his master's death.
The Qing Lord has since learned both the styles; but, because he did not learn either from a master, his grasp on both styles is imperfect. To overcome this deficiency, he decides to have the Wu-Tang and the Shaolin destroy each other, so he may be the only master of both styles.
To do this, he stages a martial arts contest between the two temples, hoping to appeal to the traditional rivalry between the Shaolin and the Wu-Tang. Jun-kit (now called Tat-chi), and Fung-wu (now called Ming-kai), are selected by their respective temples as the representatives.
The Qing Lord, in his impatience to see both Wu-Tang and Shaolin destroyed, admits his true motives, and his role in Yan-ling and Master Law's deaths. Tat-chi and Ming-kai must then combine Shaolin Chin kang fist and Wu-Tang Sword style to defeat him.
