This is why you can't trust anyone to work on your car.

had a few customer cars like that.

if you have room, you can stab the oil filter with a huge screwdriver and use it to turn the filter off.

Makes a huge mess but gets it done in 2 minutes.

I have had this work but I have also had this end up making tears in the metal which just made for more work. I have a vice grip style oil filter wrench that has never once failed me.
