# Quote 1 [on horror films] The reason I like horror films is that they're very cinematic, and I like to think of myself as a cinematic director. Other genres are not necessarily as cinematic; you can do so much with horror. 2 [on working with Klaus Kinski ] Oh, I have a lot of stories about directing [him]. I don't know if I can get away with saying things for print that I would really like to say. He's really out of control as a human being, and that creates a lot of problems on the set. He wouldn't show up, or he would leave, or he would just . . . well, he got into fist fights with the crew from the very first day. It was sad, because he really does have a lot of talent, and ultimately did give himself to the role. But he just made it very unpleasant for everybody.
# Fact 1 Is the brother of producer Gary Schmoeller . 2 Employed as a film professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. [January 2003] 3 Named Filmmaker of the Year at the 2011 Nevada Filmmaker Awards. 4 Father of Shailar Schmoeller . 5 Studied theater in Mexico with Luis Buñuel and Alejandro Jodorowsky . 6 Attended film school at the University of Texas - Austin. 7 Has a special talent--he can spin a bottle on his finger, a talent he used to write himself a role in Netherworld (1992).
