Crawlspace (1986)
Stars Klaus Kinski, Talia Balsam.
Why is it bucket-worthy?
1. Klaus Kinski. Klaus is one of my favorite actors because he’s mad. He’s bat-shit insane in this one and he looks crazy.
2. The Horror! Oh, The Horror! You don’t need lots of blood and a mysterious whodunit for a Horror to be appalling.
3. Claustrophobia. or should I say….Klaustrophobia…As it’s all set in this apartment building, this film is very claustrophobic. I love when a movie minimizes budget and uses character rather than location and effects to evoke emotion. I especially love when it has the feel of a play. It could be a play, a rather horrifying one.
