Don't look at all at what other people are doing. Think of what you're doing as completely fresh because if you imitate you're dead.

For me, Mexploitation seemed like something that should have existed, but didn't.

Make DV movies so you can learn how to make films, but don't try to distribute them until they are fantastic.

I realized that everything I do is fantasy, whether it is an adult movie or a kids movie.

Exploitation films were famous for taking an issue an exploiting it because they could move much faster than a studio could. If there was any hot topic, they would run out and make a quick movie and make a buck on it, by changing it around and using it, in some way, to give some relevance.

Everything I've done has always been my own made up world with its own rules and its own made up stories.

I wish I could freeze time or go back in time and watch my kids grow up all over again because it is just going by too fast.
