Quote

Monsters are the patron saints of imperfection.

Greeting

Monsters are not what we fear. They are what we do not understand.
Finding beauty in the darkness is my work.
Fairy tales are not lies. They tell us that we can slay the dragon.

Deploy

Shatter the gray wall of realism with the firepower of monster practical effects!
Render complacency and break through with the terror of fascism and the momentum of a grotesque fairy!
Blast the cold shell of adults into fantasy with the thunder of creature fantasy!

Victory

A perfect fairy-tale victory for monsters and outsiders alike. Mainstream Hollywood knelt before the romance of an amphibian man with an Academy trophy.
Doug Jones and the crew who breathed life into the creature through latex suit hell and budget pressure — your sweat rashes saved me.
Don't close your sketchbook and settle just because you won an Oscar. Go back down to the basement and reassemble Pinocchio's skeleton.

Draw

Studio executives keep demanding to make the monster's look cuter — I'm watching my childlike wonder burn in a quagmire.
I won't waste emotion on creature design compromises. While pretending to yield, I'll be at my desk assembling a sinister stop-motion scenario.
Even if the prejudice that calls me a Mexican otaku squeezes the budget, my rubber suit that will rescue outsiders and misfits will never melt.

Defeat

It was the misjudgment of Crimson Peak. The gothic horror got trapped in an obscure haunted-house melodrama and the box office was gutted.
The box office collapsed, but the core of my monster design is still alive and breathing. I'll cut out the weakness that leaned on classic charm and counter with the romance of Pacific Rim.
Mock me all you like as a basement-dwelling otaku director fiddling with monster toys. The bizarre, warm labyrinth I captured through my lens will be explored as long as cinephiles are born.

Strike

Tear apart the pretense with a practical-effects creature's strike!
Break through with the overwhelming sorrow of dark fantasy!
Strike down the magical lightning where fairy tale and cruelty are intertwined!
