Kill-Fist is a Cantonese action-thriller movie that was initially released in 2019. It documents the desperate attempts of a man to hold on to what little he has of his crumbling life. The movie has a brilliant cast consisting of Sunny Pang, Koe Yeet, Mike Chuah, and Alan Yun. Kill-Fist is written and directed by the talented James Lee one of the pioneers of the Malaysian Digital Film movement. Sunny Pang, who is an accomplished martial artist, plays the main character. Kill-Fist is Sunny's second project with James Lee after 'Call Me If You Need Me'.

The movie's plot follows the life of a middle-aged man, Zhang, who is forced to join a fighting ring to keep his head above water. The helplessness coupled with the violence and savagery of an underground fighting game nudges one to think of David Fincher's Fight Club.
