What is the name of that old movie...

Post by YT300000 »

...in which a man is driving to work, when an 18-wheeler starts chasing him, and for the rest of the film he is trying to get away from it?

Are you sure this isn't like that time Michael Jackson stopped by your house so he could use the bathroom? - Superman

Duel —1971 TV movie starring Dennis Weaver, his red Plymouth Valiant, and a rusted, mudcaked Peterbuilt oiler as the Truck of Evil™. Good, tense action movie and noteworthy as the film which launched the career of a young and promising director named Spielberg.
When ballots have fairly and constitutionally decided, there can be no successful appeal back to bullets.
—Abraham Lincoln

People pray so that God won't crush them like bugs.

Oil an emergency?! It's about time, Brigadier, that the leaders of this planet of yours realised that to remain dependent upon a mineral slime simply doesn't make sense.
—The Doctor "Terror Of The Zygons" (1975)

What's so exciting about being chased by a truck?~Jason
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

You've never had a Peterbilt grill totally filling your rear-view mirror as you're going down a hill, have you.

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

One of them does, near the end. It's quite cool.
