(action, mystery, thriller)
David Mann ('Dennis Weaver (I)' (qv)) is just a regular family man on a business trip. Unfortunately, things go from bad to worse when a huge gasoline truck in front of him forces him to drive slower than he wants. As the drive continues, Mann realizes that he's not dealing with just another road hog. Though he can never see the trucker's face, the driver proves to be psychopathic, starting to run Mann off the road and trick or force him into a number of deadly situations. As the horrific trip continues, Mann tries to lose the truck, but each time he thinks he's finally in the clear, the truck returns to terrify him more. Finally, the horrific conflict builds to a point where he realizes that running won't save him, and that he must take a stand and fight back against the insane trucker.

Leaving prosemaster special, Richard Matheson (a favorite of mine
Stephen King and the man recognized as his greatest influence),
to develop a premise so simple but so credible and terrifying that the viewer never see
eighteen wheels the same way anymore ... and to leave
Wunderkind film, Stephen Spielburg, to make Matheson's script
and win fame in the negotiation.
While some may argue that "Bullit", "vanishing point", or perhaps even
original "Gone in 60 Seconds" could be called the last car of persecution film
"Duel" deserves this name better, because it makes something that none of
over films can claim. The story begins literally to the road and ends
on the road. There is no place in the entire film is increasingly out of sight of the road and
, despite the brief conversation with his wife,
practically nothing else is going off the road. For David Mann (played adequately enough
by Dennis Weaver) and the monster truck that is trying to get outside,
alongside the road and everything that is their entire universe. Nothing more important
exists outside it.
despite never mentioned in the film, which seems to take place in
roads of California. When I went out there about eight years ago, I was
by roads that seemed to be not too dissimiliar to the ones shown here.
It appears that stretch forever, no traces of civilization in the light of
miles. Spielburg used this setting to a great advantage. Being in his car at a busy intersection
city is one thing, but where the roads
with nothing but his car and a homicidal maniac in a diesel miles? The isolation factor
cars produced naturally jumps from one thousand percent. The radiator hose
problem made me think of many other occasions I've had similar problems with
cars I've had. Of course, I never had someone trying to kill me
time, but ...
Anyone looking for drama, character development, or all other elements
pseudo-critics point out that as the mark of excellence are responsible
film to be disappointed by " Duel. " This is what King described in "Danse Macabre"
History of the Hook. It is the only purpose is to scare you to hell. Orders
if something does not work. That is the mark of a classic.
This film proves that television can produce a quality film. Like Spielberg
the first major theatrical success, "Jaws", this film is a
threat, the driver, which is almost invisible to most of the film. This
also prey on our fear of being trapped in a desperate situation with
nobody around to help. Moreover, Dennis Weaver was perfectly cast as the unfortunate motorist
what happens to be the prey of a psychotic truck driver
. This definitely is far from Weaver's most famous role
Marshall Sam McCloud, who was the typical hero compared to
terrorized motorist who plays in this movie. Too bad that here in the United States
never got the chance to see this great movie in a theater
like the rest of the world. This is undoubtedly a classic movie thriller.
