Production
The film was directed by Robert Fuest, and made by the same production team that had recently completed the television series The Avengers. Notwithstanding the title, the film eschews the familiar use of darkness and claustrophobia to create suspense. In a way analogous to Stanley Kubrick's use of the large hotel interiors in The Shining (which it predates by a decade), the mounting drama unfolds in bright, open spaces. Similar parallels have been drawn with the isolation and dread of the open road in Steven Spielberg's thriller Duel.
