A graduate (1992) of the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California.[1] Dietz' debut feature film Fag Hag (1998), a politically incorrect, low-budget satire for Troma Entertainment, described as "a punk, underground trash cinema classic" (New York Post / Page Six), "a savagely funny, deranged comedy of manners" (Chicago Tribune), and "rollicking, trashy and clever" (Variety) stars Dietz, Stephanie Orff and features Wil Wheaton.

Dietz' subsequent films: Neverland (2003), a surreal and modern retelling of the classic J.M. Barrie play Peter Pan, Beverly Kills (2005), a campy farce about a terrorist cult of failed Hollywood actors, Love Life (2006), a melodrama about the marriage of convenience between a closeted former athlete and his lesbian wife, which premiered at the Frameline Film Festival in San Francisco and was selected as the benefit film for the Human Rights Campaign, and Dog Tags (2008), starring Academy Award nominee Candy Clark.
