Story Snapshot:
Disciples Of Death, also know as 少林子弟, Men From The Monastery, Shao Lin zi di, Shaolin Zidi, and Le Monastère de Shaolin . : Shaolin firebrands Fang Shih-yu, Hung Hsi-kuan, and Hu Huei-chien are as famous in Asia as the Three Musketeers are in America and Europe. So when the "godfather of the kung-fu film," Chang Cheh decided to tell their stories with Alexander Fu Sheng, Chen Kuan-tai, and Chi Kuan-chi in the roles, it was cause for celebration. The resulting film is one of the most lauded and beloved in the director's filmography, and remains a highlight in all the stars' careers. It is the final days of the majestic Ming Dynasty when the Chinese mainland is overrun by the Manchu troops. The disciples of the Shaolin Monastery are soon fighting alongside the patriots in their fierce struggle against the invaders--and the fate of a nation lies in the lethal hands of the Men From The Monastery.
