About Thoong Lui Lai
The mission to disguise himself as Suea Phuek Chumphae (Sombat) successfully quelled various illegal influences in Chum Phae district, and Phuek proudly ascended to the position of district chief. The path seemed smooth, but when "Thung Lui Lai" fell into a state of turmoil and the authorities could no longer maintain order, Phuek Chum Phae was forced to return to his life as a bandit catching bandits once again. But what obstacles will Phuek Chum Phae face this time? Who will join him in dismantling these illegal influences?
Directed by Wisan Suntisucha, Thoong Lui Lai leans on a strong ensemble — Sombat Metanee, Nath Phuwanai, Piyamas Monayakul — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1978.
