Mamat Khalid
Mohamad bin Mohamad Khalid, known professionally as Mamat Khalid (6 April 1963-24 October 2021) is a Malaysian screenwriter, film director, and occasional actor.

Before venturing into film-making, Mamat worked in a government office. He was a fan of rock music, having joined an amateur band named Drop Out in 1986 as the band's keyboardist. The experiences that he had gone through during the phase inspired him to write and direct his film Rock(2005), which is a commercial success. It led into three sequels - Rock Ooo…! (2013), Rock Bro! (2016) and Rock 4: Rockers Never Dai (2020). He was also the translator for the animation series Kampung Boy done by the work of his brother, Lat. He cited the late director P. Ramlee as one of his filmmakers inspiration. His filmmaking style involves comedy satirism that criticize the political scenario and corruption happened in Malaysia.

He was believed to have extreme fatigue after attending the preview session of his latest film, Lebuhraya Ke Neraka in Bukit Bintang.

He died on 24 October 2021 at the age of 58 due to heart disease at Slim River Hospital.He was reportedly collapsed at his restaurant Sarang Art Hub in Tanjung Malim.
