I am a huge fan of Klaus Kinski and I love his films, but there is no getting away from it, the man was a nightmare to work with. Werner Herzog once threatened to shoot Kinski on the set of Aquirre: The Wrath of God. It was well known that the actor as difficult as he could be, was a genius when it came to acting. Schmoeller retells the story of working with Kinski on Crawlspace,a 1980's horror movie and it is humorous, but at the end, he does admit to Kinski being a compelling actor. As difficult and antagonistic as he was, he elevated what could have been an average slasher to something much better. The short film tells an amusing story and in it's own way, helps to keep a great actor's legacy alive.
