Shaolin and Wu Tang is a 1983 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by and starring Gordon Liu.

The film is about the rivalry between the Shaolin (East Asian Mahayana) and Wu-Tang (Taoist Religion) martial arts schools.

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.

During the contest, 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.

[1] Founders RZA and Ol' Dirty Bastard first saw the film in 1992 in a grindhouse cinema on Manhattan's 42nd Street and would found the group shortly after with GZA.

Rapper Logic sampled the film in his song "Wu Tang Forever" from his YSIV album, which featured all Wu-Tang members living at the time of its release.
