Abduction is a 1975 American thriller film directed by Joseph Zito, produced and written by Kent E. Carroll and based on the novel Black Abductor by Harrison James, which has similarities to the Patty Hearst case[1] which it predates.

The police violently interrogate Jake, a friend of Frank, to find out the identities and location of the gang members.

The film opened exclusively in New York for two weeks before expanding to Los Angeles and San Francisco.

[2] The New York Times described this as "bargain-basement movie-making of the least interesting sort, an ineptly produced ripoff of the Patricia Hearst story ... based on a novel that was actually written before the kidnapping".

[1] Steve Carlson, on the letterboxd website, commented that this is "a plainly scummy little hostage feature that would barely rate a footnote in exploitation-film history if not for that it kicked off the career of Joseph Zito.
