      I've never heard a bad word about it before, but a lot of 70s TV movies have a cult following as you said. I thought Let's Scare Jessica to Death was ridiculous and boring as hell though. I think nostalgia has a lot to do with people enjoying these oldies.

        One of those to watch every few years and that is what it was for me so I enjoyed it and love the jokes Sven does before and after the commercials.

          I'm surprised you don't like it. It was written by Richard Matheson who wrote many of the classic Twilight Zone episodes and it has a very Twilight Zone look and feel to it. It even stars Dennis Weaver who was in the classic TZ episode "Shadowplay". I love it for the suspense and Weaver's over the top performance. I always try to figure out who the psycho truck driver is during the scene in the diner (of course, he's probably none of those guys).
          what a boring and dry (no pun intended) movie.
          It's typical 70's slowburn horror. It's slow going at first but builds on suspense as the film progresses.

            "I always try to figure out who the psycho truck driver is during the scene in the diner (of course, he's probably none of those guys)."
            He wasn't because the truck drives off with Dave watching from the Diner and we did not see anyone from the diner get into the truck.
            I liked how we never saw the drivers face and just body parts like a leg or an arm here and there.
            I would have turned around and gone home first chance I got.
            Of course Dave goes in the same direction of the truck so we can have a movie.
            LOL
            Imagine having a cat and mouse movie like this but the mouse just goes back to the hole with no final violent end for the cat as it always is.

              This felt like the foundation for Jeepers Creepers.
              It's miles better (no pun intended) than Jeepers Creepers! And I actually like Jeepers Creepers.

                As soon as JC
                went supernatural
                my interest just disappeared with that movie. Both Jeepers and Creepers = 33 in numerology. So it was named that for the dual (no pun intended) numbers.

                    Yes, the first half of the film was great and pretty damn creepy. The second half not so much.
                    When we find out that the creature is a flying demon (or whatever) the film loses its believability.

                        I was rooting for the truck driver. Can't stand those damn tailgaters who honk at you. He had it coming.

                          It made no ****ing sense why that demon would need to drive.
                          That just makes it silly, goofy and stupid.

                            I've got no idea why people think this is a great and classic piece of movie making. Sloooooowww.

                                  Honestly when it comes to all of Steven Spielberg's Movies, "
                                  DUEL
                                  " is 1 of My Top 5 Favorites.
