Cobra Verde.
Kaspar is my favorite but I'm the only one it seems.
James Jones
He was in a Flash episode. I didnt like his acting. He is always the bad military guy.
Andrew Garcia
Grizzly Man is a good way to start without OD'ing. It's about a man playing with adorable grizzlies. The Herzog nihilism trickles in and corrupts the the film so it becomes the story of a man getting torn to shreds by grizzlies.

My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done?
Tyler Powell
Docs, Lessons of Darkness and Grizzly Man are probably good places to start, then just pick some others from his filmography on wikipedia
The rest IE his fiction should fall into place after that

Grizzly Man is probably the best entry point for documentaries.
Fitzarraldo (probably?) for fiction.
His books are great, too.
Mason Price
Don't start. He is a piece of shit.
Hudson Williams

Julian Smith
That's a great story. Like something from Daniil Kharms or Kosztolanyi.
Brody King
Werner Herzog was once in an episode of The Boondocks
Oliver Flores
Nosferatu is like the most atmospheric horror ever. So bizarre and unnerving.
Alexander Williams
>Our kitchen crew slaughtered our last four ducks. While they were still alive, Julian plucked their neck feathers before chopping off their heads on the execution block. The albino turkey, that vain creature, the survivor of so many roast chickens and ducks transformed into soup, came over to inspect, gobbling and displaying, used his ugly feet to push one of the beheaded ducks as it lay there on the ground bleeding and flapping its wings into what he thought was a proper position, and making gurgling sounds while his bluish red wattles swelled, he mounted the dying duck and copulated with it.
Asher Reyes
Incident at loch ness is a criminally underrated horror film.
Happens to be by and star the Herzog,
Ryan Rivera
Reading this in his voice.
I love that one. Best documentary he's done before Encounters.
