Director Enric Folch and his team want to examine in detail the cult-curio that launched Steven Spielberg's feature film career: Duel.
A lowly TV Movie-Of-The-Week shot in 1971 over 13 days with no film stars, the visceral idea of a terrifying truck, whose driver we never see, for no apparent reason chases a lone driver along the desert roads of Southern California. Years before The Road Warrior, Jaws, and even The Hitcher, this tiny-budgeted film has planted deep roots of influence across genre cinema, and its director, of course, went on to become one of the most commercially successful filmmakers of all time.
Their Kickstarter campaign is into the home stretch over the few remaining days, and with its all-or-nothing funding, the project has its own demonic truck chasing it down: Time.
I am told that time equals money. Which is where you, intrepid fan of surreal action cinema, comes in. Head over to their Kickstarter campaign and drop a few dollars into the pan, so that big rusty monster doesn't run them into the ground.
