3. Abduction (1975) - Bleeding Skull

  • Missing: spoiler | Show results with:spoiler

  • This movie is about, but not really about, Patty Hearst’s kidnapping. First, a quick refresher: In 1972, an erotic novel called Black Abductor was published. It was about a young heiress who gets kidnapped by a group of anti-government radicals. The heiress eventually joins the radicals in their cause. In 1974, Patty Hearst was kidnapped by a group of anti-government radicals, and we know how that story goes. In 1975, Abduction was released. The details of the Hearst kidnapping were still unfolding as this movie was in production, but who cares, there was money to be made! Since the movie was an adaptation of the novel, the filmmakers could skirt the Hearst family lawyers and capitalize on the scandal. This is Joseph Zito’s directorial debut; he later went on to direct a bunch of movies we love and one we love a little less: The Prowler, Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, Invasion U.S.A. and Missing in Action. Speaking of which, you know what’s missing in this movie? Action.
