I remember watching this movie as a kid and my parents noticed I was movie my foot like pushing the gas pedal through the whole movie

Glad to see you watching this! I originally saw it as a kid on TV in the 80s and thought it was amazing, unlike anything else I'd seen. I loved that it felt like a monster movie and I always saw it as a practice run for Jaws, as it has a similar feel of a regular guy facing a monstrous and relentless force without much explanation over why it persists. I would give it a similar score now, although as a child, in the era before the internet and mobile phones and all the other things that make his situation feel less isolated and perilous, it felt even more terrifying and I'd have scored it a little higher. For a TV movie it's truly incredible.

Oh and now you've seen this, you and Tom should definitely watch The Hitcher (1986) together! It takes similar themes and builds a more elaborate story. Rutger Hauer (who you saw in Blade Runner) gives an amazing performance in it.

Great reaction...I believe the film was released cinematically in Europe...Mann was played by Dennis Weaver who was probably best known for his roles on the classic TV series "Gunsmoke" and as the title character in "McCloud"(he also starred in the 1973 made for TV thriller "Terror on the Beach" as the head of a family terrorized by a gang of crazy hippies) ...I was a kid in the 70's and I fondly remember this and other great scary TV movies like "The Night Stalker", "The Night Strangler", "Dracula"(starring Jack Palance in the title role), "Bad Ronald", "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark", "Trilogy of Terror", "Night Terror", "Salem's Lot" and quite a few others that are well worth a look

I've loved this film since I saw it on an afternoon movie matinee after school one day. I think it's a 9 out of 10 -- simple story, amazing camera work, stunts, suspense. A very ordinary man put into an extraordinary circumstance. Later films like Joyride, etc. would try to replicate but never match it. Plus, snake lady!

Here are some first, or early, titles of prominent directors: George Lucas: "THX 1138" from 1971 Stanley Kubrick: "The Killing" from 1956; "Dr. Strangelove" from 1964 Robert Redford: "Ordinary People" from 1980 Ridley Scott: "The Duellists" from 1977 Christopher Nolan: "Memento" from 2000

Fun Fact. The "roar" the truck makes as it crashes over the cliff, Spielberg used the exact same sound as the shark sinks to the bottom of the ocean at the climax of Jaws. I would love to see you react to The Hitcher. Very similar ideas to this. Also with summer coming up I really would love you to do the complete Jaws franchise. Starts with a masterpiece and ends with possibly the worst movie ever made!!
