Ordinary American salesman David Mann (Dennis Weaver) finds himself travelling along the lonely highways of California, United States, before becoming locked in a terrifying battle with an unknown truck driver after a harmless overtaking manoeuvre. As the relentless pursuit unfolds, it gradually escalates into a deadly game of cat and mouse. An extremely easy-to-follow premise, yet a picture that still holds up in today’s era of filmmaking. It’s worth noting that Duel is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
