After Jackie became a star one year earlier with Snake In The Eagle's Shadow and Drunken Master, roughly half of the original footage was taken, a new plot was created and some scenes were reshot with an obvious Jackie-double. More famous on a worldwide scale, though, is the result of some shifty producers, which got first released in 1979, titled Master With Cracked Fingers. This may not be the case, though, since there is a DVD available from Japan (by JVD), England and Canada (by Rarescope) for a couple of years now, which contains the original film, which has apparently also been released in a few Asian theaters in 1973. Jackie's biography (which he didn't write himself), the work was never finished, let alone released. The cheap production was faced with several problems though, and if you believe e.g. In 1971, Cub Tiger From Kwang Tung was supposed to be the first main role for then-17-year-old Jackie Chan.

The Recut 'Master With Cracked Fingers' (represented by the German DVD-re-release by Voulez-Vous) has been compared to the Original Version 'Cub Tiger From Kwang Tung' (represented by the Canadian DVD-release by Rarescope) In the US, also named Snake Fist Fighter and Ten Fingers of Death. Contrary to the 'English Version', this one is missing some plot scenes in the middle of the film.Ĭontained on the old German DVDs by MiB and NUM, named Der Meister mit den Gebrochenen Händen and by MCP named Die Rache der Todesfaust, the British DVDs by Prism Leisure (see cover on the left, identical to the MiB-DVD save the texts), the US-DVDs by Madacy and Mill Creek and the Canadian DVDs by Family DVD Story/Cascadia as well as Telefilms International. This one was probably released the most internationally and contains a different English dubbing as the version mentioned before.
