Jackie Chan explodes onto the screen in the film that launched his meteoric career. Brimming with imaginative kung fu styles, powerful choreography, and innovative training sequences, "Snake In The Eagle's Shadow" is a dazzling showcase for the overwhelming physical talents of the world's number one action star. To save his master, Pak Cheung Tien (Yuen Siu Tien), from certain death at the hands of dreaded eagle claw master Shang Kwan Yi Mun (played with gusto by kicking maestro Hwang Jang Lee), Chien Fu (Jackie) must combine the lethal art of snake fist with cat's claw (his own invention) and undergo some of the most torturous training ever devised.
