Apr 11, 2006 · Lew makes his directing debut with 18 Fingers of Death, a spoof on martial arts films and the workings of Hollywood that the actor also wrote and stars in.

With his 18 Fingers of Death, writer-director-star Lew hopes to do to martial arts movies what This Is Spinal Tap did to rock ‘n' roll: relentlessly make fun of it. In this mockumentary, Lew plays Buford Lee, a cult martial arts actor who, after 803 films, is finally on the verge of superstardom with his latest film, 18 Fingers of Death.
