CRAWLSPACE has an interesting idea behind it but unfortunately, like most of David Schmoeller's films (he directed the boring TOURIST TRAP), the whole thing is just too uninvolving to be memorable in any way, shape or form. The film feels like it's missing a third of story and the way the film starts sorta echo this impression: we see a woman walking around the apartment complex and eventually discovers Kinski's horrifying background and pays for it. One feels that when the movie starts, it had been in progress for some time already. Except for the lead actress, the mute woman and Kinski, the other actors are mostly terrible. And the sets look, for the most part, cheap and very studio like. CRAWLSPACE is a somewhat interesting footnote in the horror genre, nothing more.
