Duel (Rent on Prime Video)
Synopsis: Steven Spielberg directs Duel, a high-velocity thriller about a motorist terrorized by an evil truck.

Dennis Weaver stars as the traveling salesman waging a desperate battle for survival after he is mysteriously singled out. Praised for its deft use of relentlessly mounting psychological tension, Duel features one of the most uniquely terrifying “characters” in movie history: a massive, roaring, 40-ton truck with sheer menace.
