Product Description

In Steven Spielberg's first full-length movie, Duel, a traveling salesman (Dennis Weaver) is harassed by a menacing 40-ton truck on a remote desert highway. Brilliant in its simplicity, the cult favorite takes road rage to a dangerous level as the traveler and the mysterious truck-driver are pitted against one another in a motorized duel to the death. Gripping with psychological tension, this desperate battle for survival is hailed by critics as a film that "belongs on the classics shelf reserved for top suspensers" (Daily Variety).

A classic with Dennis Weaver keeps you on edge of seat
This is a great movie. It’s slightly corny but it’s still a great movie with Dennis Weaver. The poor guy is being stalked by this psycho truck driver. I highly recommend it. I don’t buy that many movies but this is one that I just had to have because it just keeps you on the edge of your seat.

This is a Nov. 2023 update! I just received the new 4K UHD/HDR Blu-ray of "Duel." The improvement over HD is impressive, immersing one in the thriller. Differences between 4K and HD are subtle, but with 4K it just seems to put you into the movie itself. I heartily recommend this 4K version! Also, it includes the original 74 minute TV version, which, with less "filler," increases the tension, excitement, and terror. The picture quality of the TV version is definitely NOT "HD", but feels more like watching a '70s tv show--which this was.
I first saw "Duel" in around 1972 on ABC as one of their movies of the week. I was mesmerized and thrilled by the relentlessness of the film; I was on the edge of my seat for all 90 minutes! Talk about road rage!
"Duel" was Steven Spielberg's first full-length film, a 'made-for-TV' movie starring Dennis Weaver (from 'Gunsmoke' and 'McCloud'), about David Mann, a mild-mannered middle-class traveling salesman being terrorized by the aggressive driver of an 18-wheeler, and how Mann (note the name!) responds during the 90 minutes of hair-raising terror. The original TV version was 74 minutes minus ads. Since ABC decided to release it theatrically in Europe, they added about 15 minutes of "filler" to get it to just under 90 minutes. The "filler" does not adversely affect the white-knuckle thriller, and adds a telephone scene with his wife (Jacqueline Scott of "Fugitive" tv series) that displays Mann's demure, passive husband/wife relationship , at odds with the challenge of facing potential violence threatened by the Peterbilt truck driver (whom we never see). Also, some mild cussing was thrown in to make it seem more realistic for movie theater audiences.
The picture quality is excellent in restored high definition and in widescreen (it was originally shot in 35mm 1.33:1 ratio).
There are excellent bonus videos, including Spielberg discussing the filming process and how he fought to get it filmed on location instead of in a sound stage with tacky process backgrounds (to save money of course). Also there is a spot with Richard Matheson, who wrote the original novelette published in 'Playboy' magazine, and the screenplay. Matheson wrote many screenplays for 'Twilight Zone', including the famous "Nightmare at 20,000 Ft." with William Shatner.
My only 'criticism' is that Universal didn't include the original 74-minute version. Fortunately, for the serious fan, a new 4K UHD Blu-ray is being released in November 2023 that will include a Blu-ray HD print of the 74-minute TV version, in 1.33:1 standard tube-tv ratio.
Spielberg credits his work on "Duel" as being the film that propelled him from directing TV show into making feature films. What a debut!

Dennis Weaver plays an ordinary businessman driving home through the desert when he becomes the would-be victim of a sadistic and murderous truck driver trying to turn him into nothing but a smear on the pavement.
We never see the trick driver's face but his big-rig truck doing battle with Weaver's sedan (which is match for this huge truck) on the deserted highway is what most of this intense film is all about.
Can Weaver survive the endless attacks on he and his car from this frighteningly large and powerful big-rig? Can he somehow actually defeat this monster on the road?
Watch this terrifying film to find out.
It is easy to see how the still very young Spielberg was helmed to direct Jaws after he was able to turn a diesel truck into a monster as frightening as the shark in Jaws needed to be.
This film helped skyrocket Spielberg from a teenaged television director into a major motion picture director.
The 4K Blu-ray looks surprisingly good, but the new sound mix (back when I saw Dual for the first time the sound was only in mono) was the biggest surprise of all for me. The surround is astoundingly expansive with all of the sounds of the road really coming to life in a sound track that leaves the original mono sound track literally in the dust!
I wasn't expecting this disc to look and sound as good as it does. What a treat!
A real cinematic experience that any Spielberg fan should love, Dual on 4K Blu-ray comes very highly recommended.

Good transfer of a movie I haven't seen since it was on TV decades ago. It obviously looks far better than it did on a 19 inch TV with rabbit ears back in 1972. That is great, but if you are expecting the original TV ratio, you might be disappointed. This is the standard cinema format version that was released in theatres with a 16mm or 35mm format of about 3 to 2.

The cinema version is actually better, is not cropped like the original TV movie, and matches well to the normal 16:9 ratio of TV's today. Unlike many old TV shows projected on many Smart TVs that do not have menu settings to insure old TV shows are shown in their original squarish format, this movie is neither cropped, nor does everyone look like they have a fat head.

There are also some interesting background features on the disk.

Where Spielberg got his start, and Matheson was simply the best writer ever; and he changed his mind about writing about evil as it should be after this film and never wrote another 'evil' story again.

Thriller with really one actor, a old tranker truck and a car. Wild ride!

One of the few movies I actually liked Dennis Weaver but he was awesome in this film. Incredibly story. Spielbergs first directing effort. I saw this as a kid and when I saw it was available on blu ray I had to have it. I didn’t disappoint. Holds up very well. Highly recommended.

This is Steven Spielberg's first motion picture and despite the low budget and lack of pizzazz it keeps your attention. Excellent picture quality, too. This is what the 4K format was made for.

Reviewed in Germany on March 26, 2014
ich habe sie endlich entdeckt, die Originalfassung des Klassikers Duell. Nach der Versiebung der DVD war es ein richtiger Segen, das es günstig noch die VHS gab. Hier ist der Klassiker ungeschnitten und in Erstsynchro drauf, der sonst immer fehlende Monolog gegen Ende ist hier auch enthalten. Spannender Nervenkitzel bis zum Schluss. Ich empfehle allen diese VHS von "CIC Hollywood Collection", länger als die TV-Fassung. Auch nach sovielen Jahren immer noch ein Kultfilm.
