About this listen

“Two Maniacs. One Movie.”

Have a listen as we sink our fangs into the chaotic production of a crime thriller derailed by clashing egos, on-set brawls, and a revolving door of directors. Starring the notoriously volatile duo of Klaus Kinski & Oliver Reed, the film was meant to be a tense hostage drama, but behind the scenes, tensions ran higher than the suspense on screen. We explore how the original director Tobe Hooper ("The Texas Chain Saw Massacre") abruptly exited the production, why Kinski and Reed’s feud turned physical, and how the film managed to slither its way to completion despite the madness.
