In February 2015, Reel FX and Gutierrez announced a multi-year, multi-picture deal. Since then, he has been directing and writing his second feature film, titled Kung Fu Space Punch. Gutierrez described it as a "funny mash-up of some of my favorite influences: '90s Kung Fu films, Spaghetti Westerns of the '60s, and the epic Space Adventures of the '70s, '80s and today."
