It was the first feature film directed by Steven Spielberg (then 25 years old) and was written by Richard Matheson based on his own short story. It was #67 on Bravo's "Scariest Movie Moments."
Duel is the most expensive movie ever made in Iranian cinema history. It was directed by Ahmad Reza Darvish, who was mostly known for films about the Iran-Iraq war. Duel was shot in roughly 11 months in various cities of Iran. The first screening was at the Fajr International Film Festival, in 2004, where it won 7 Crystal Phoenix Statues. Also, it is the first Iranian movie to use Dolby Digital sound.

In Derek Eastham's, "The Duel," the relationship between gunmen in a classic western duel is explored and emotionalized. Rather than the both of them having their gunfight out in a matter of moments, Derek uses the images to convey the emotions & thoughts that run through these cowboys minds in the moments leading up to that last moment when they fire their guns. This film is an emotional story of good v evil and all of the emotions that fly between them. Written by Derek Eastham

David Mann is just what his name suggests: an everyman with a mediocre job who has trouble standing up for himself. While driving through the desert to an important appointment, he passes a slow-moving, rusty tanker truck. The driver proves to have a severe case of road rage and takes offense at this action, devoting the rest of his day purely to killing Mann. The malevolent driver is never seen, giving the impression that it's the truck itself that is the agressor. Written by rmlohner
David Mann (Dennis Weaver (I)) 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. Written by Curly Q. Link
