After their royal family is massacred, two young princes are secretly rescued and raised apart, unaware of their true identities. One is raised inside Shaolin Temple by three eccentric monks known as the Three Holy Fools, while the other grows up following a very different path. As adults, the brothers become exceptional martial artists and are drawn into a deadly struggle against the conspirators responsible for their family's downfall.

WHY COLLECTORS PICK IT

Shaolin Prince was one of only three films directed by legendary action choreographer Tang Chia, whose work helped define the Shaw Brothers style. The film combines traditional Shaolin kung fu, intricate swordplay, and acrobatic action with memorable performances by Derek Yee, Jason Pai Piao, and the comedic Three Holy Fools, making it one of the studio's standout martial arts adventures of the early 1980s.
