I don't know about The Duel, but Duel by Spielberg was great.

It really is an underrated thriller. Plus, it's pretty cool that it's Spielberg's first full-length film.

It was "Jaws" on land. Dennis Weaver had a creditable
performance.
performance.

I watched it last weekend. It's low budget, and not fantastic, but it was an easy watch when nothing else was on. Woody seemed natural as a psychopath redneck cult leader.
It's set in a real, historic Texas ghost town (though filmed in Mississippi) that was known for violence. You can look up the "Helena duel" for some of the context. Story seems loosely inspired by Heart of Darkness (Apocalypse Now).

I watched it last night. It was pretty good but nothing special. I had the same thought that Woody Harrelson's character looked like Brando in Apocalypse Now. There was a scene when they showed him from behind and it reminded me of some of those Colonel Kurtz scenes in AN. Harrelson plays a believable demented fundamentalist and really created a sinister vibe in the movie.
