+1
This is a movie I go back to occasionally. As already stated it shows Spielberg's ability.
He understands what it takes to make a truly terrifying antagonist.
WARNING: "Spoilers" spoilers below
The identity and the motives of the driver are never revealed and this makes it all the more horrifying. Like The Terminator, it can't be reasoned with, it seems unstoppable and it's coming after him! David Mann represents everyman as Brodie did in Jaws, and Spielberg admits that Duel and Jaws share a 'kinship'.

Might give this another look this weekend.
