"Latsploitation embraces the Argentine 'sexploitation' films of Armando Bo and Isabel Sarli, the Brazilian pornochanchada subgenre, and Ecuador's ultra low-budget 'hitmen' films. By far the largest producer in the region, however, is *Mexico—giving rise to the term mexploitation." --A Dictionary of Film Studies (2012), Annette Kuhn, Guy Westwell |
