[[caption-width-right:350:Yes, that is Gordon Liu in drag, and ItMakesSenseInContext]]
''Disciples of the 36th Chamber'' is a 1985 Creator/ShawBrothers MartialArtsMovie starring Creator/GordonLiu, Lily Li, and Hsiao Ho. It is Gordon Liu's third outing as the Shaolin monk, Master San Te, and together with ''Film/The36thChamberOfShaolin'' and ''Film/ReturnToThe36thChamber'', the films forms a [[ThematicSeries Thematic Trilogy]] of Shaolin kung fu -based martial arts movies.
This time Gordon Liu takes a backseat to the newcomer Hsiao Ho, who previously made it big with ''Film/MadMonkeyKungFu''. In a role earlier portrayed by Creator/AlexanderFuSheng, Hsiao is the martial artist Fong Sai-yuk, a teenage troublemaker and rebel, much to the chagrin of his father, Master Fong - who also happens to be his Martial Arts Instructor and owner of the kung-fu school he studied in.
