Seriously?

You’d be hard pressed to make a stinker worse than this. “Christine” comes close, though.
Eh, each to their own, and all that.
BTW, Christine has Harry Dean Stanton in it. And any movie with Harry Dean Stanton in it is automatically awesome. :-)
In its defence, Duel was a made for tv movie with almost no budget. How many other made for tv movies from 1971 can anyone remember?
It definitely wasn’t a stinker, no one ever calls it great cinema but people really liked it and and they remember it.
It’s one of those “TV movies” that people remember fondly.
Kong’s ‘Maximum Overdrive’ with Emilio Estevez makes ‘Christine’ seem like Citizen Kane.
Remember, the trucks and other machines come to life and enslave the truckstop humans, forcing Emilio & Co. to re-fuel them, and they circle the gas pumps like Indians around the wagon train?
