Five Fingers of Death is a film directed in 1972 by Jeong Chang-hwa and starring Lo Lieh. Made in Hong Kong, it is one of many kung fu-themed movies with Lo Lieh in the lead. He appeared in many similar efforts from the 1960s, pre-dating the more internationally successful Bruce Lee.

It's original title was Tian xia di yi quan.
