    Duel (1971) Monster Analysis
    The Debut film of non other than Steven Spielberg, adapted from a short story by Richard Matheson who got the idea for the film when he was driving home and a large truck was tailgating him. It was originally intended to be a TV movie, and it was, even aired on TV, but ended up being a theatrical release after universal requested that Spielberg shoot additional scenes to make it a 90 minute feature.
    I first seen this movie when I was around 10, caught it on TV late one night after I snuck downstairs when my parents were in bed. I was glued the entire way through. Dennis Weaver gives a stellar performance that evokes so much paranoia and confusion. The monster of the show is the truck. It was always its own character, yes we do see there is someone driving it but I prefer to think the menacing threat is the truck itself, not the psycho driving it. Plus it just looks so damn cool!
    Cannot recommend this title enough, get a copy or watch it on whatever streaming service you use, it's a gripping watch.
    Also need to give a shout out to CJ Burnett, he's a guy that creates music for a genre I discovered a few years back called 'New Retro Wave'. He kindly gave me permission to use his track 'Joy Ride' in this episode of Monster Analysis, show him some love and go check him out cjburnett.bandcamp.com/
    Stay Awesome guys

      This film was very much like a Twilight Zone episode-the unusual camera angles, a character in isolation, an unseen pursuer. Spielberg himself has a cameo standing outside the phone booth at the snakerama. QUESTIONS-1. WHY was Mann driving to a business meeting all across the desert at the last minute? Why wouldnt he have taken a plane a week earlier to San Francisco?2-Aren't the Manns too old to be parents of little kids? (their grandkids? My theory). 3. The Jungle? Are we to assume Mann served in the Phillippines in World War 2? (he's too old to have been in Vietnam). Wouldn't he be alot more street smart, tougher if he was a war veteran?

    Fun Fact: The man playing the 'psycho truck driver' was one of the industry's best stuntmen of the time - Carey Loftin. Amongst the films he worked on or supervised the stunt action were: Magnum Force, French Connection, Mission Impossible (TV Series), Bullitt, Point Blank, Bonnie and Clyde, Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Great Escape to name a few!! In all he worked on 380 films as either a Stuntman or stunt coordinator and a further 112 films as a cameo (usually a truck driver). You do see him once in Duel. He was actually one of the drinkers at the bar. He was the one that looks over at Dennis Weaver's character menacingly. If you type Carey Loftin into Google images it comes up with a picture of him in the film!!

    I watched this movie as a kid in the mid 2000s (My family has the DVD of this movie). So I wasn’t in the era this movie was made. Yet this movie is a masterpiece. It’s so simple yet intense and realistic. Genuinely terrifying at parts. I’ve been on drives and motorcycle rides on smaller roads away from populated areas and have had some drivers try to run me off the road or get me to crash. And those situations remind me of this movie. Fantastic film.

      That was no simple looking semi rig. Spielberg intentionally went out of his way to find an old sinister looking truck. I believe it is a 1950s model. It looks scary just sitting still on the road, regardless of camera angle. He could use the same camera shots on a new Tesla semi truck and it would NEVER look as menacing as that old diesel brute did.

    Steven Spielberg said Jaws was a sequel to Duel because both films are about these mysterious killers preying on everyday people. As a young man working at Universal he got to see some Alfred Hitchcock films being made and you can easily see Spielberg took notes on how to build suspense from the master himself.

      @Joey7Z7Horror Місяць тому

      I strongly agree and mildly disagree at the same time. I absolutely love movies like these that are purely in the moment and not trying to enforce a message but the truth is, most movies have a message whether intentional or not, whether enforced or not. I’m not saying DUEL is a movie with a strong message but what I’m saying is that, if you have pure and great cinema like this, it shouldn’t be put down if you notice some underlying themes. Sometimes it can be unintentional and that “message” is simply engraved into the structure of the storytelling. What matters in this context is if a movie is actively *enforcing* a message. But I definitely agree that Duel is one of those movies that are not trying to give a message, just a film that puts you purely in the present moment of the story.

    Steven Spielberg's debut film today is the prime example for every director and producer on how to make an independent Hollywood-style suspense thriller with minimalist elements with a small budget and film crew. All you need is a good and unique idea, usually inspired by events and stories in real life, such as in Duel's case. I also like the new music tracks added to this remastered version. It adds a special flavor. Kevin MacLeod in particular is a great composer for licensed music!

    Ten years ago, I was traveling with my friend on one of the long desert roads in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It started around 3am when I forgot my car's headlight. He hit the car owner who was driving in front of us. He started chasing us and threatening us with the machete he had, and continued to chase us until sunrise, there was no network transmission on the way so I could call the police. Therefore, one must be careful and not act recklessly, as one may encounter crazy people or criminals in the wrong place and time.

    First of all what a classic movie. After being a driver now for many years I have encountered car drivers that don't like being over taken even when their like 8mph under the speed limit... When you over take (doing the speed limit) they wake up and fight for their space back...to the point of cutting you up.... Usually the driver is in a modern sporty type of car. It's funny seeing that behaviour and how petty it is, I can imagine them muttering "i want my road space back" 😂 some can't get their space back and start driving dangerously just to get in front of me😂 some end up 5 cars behind because they get stuck trying to over take again😂... I just don't get the man baby attitude 🤭 so Duel is very realistic in the driving attitudes that's still around today...
