Abduction is a 2011 American action thriller film directed by John Singleton and starring Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins, Sigourney Weaver, Maria Bello, Jason Isaacs, Michael Nyqvist, and Alfred Molina. The film is about a teenager who discovers that the father and mother he has been living with throughout his youth, are not his real parents -- when he sees his baby picture on a "Missing People" website. The film was released by Lionsgate on September 23, 2011.
Nathan Harper (Taylor Lautner) is an 18-year old who lives with his "parents", Kevin (Jason Isaacs) and Mara (Maria Bello). He has been having recurring nightmares throughout most of his youth, and was recommended by his school counselor to consult psychiatrist Dr. Geraldine "Geri" Bennett (Sigourney Weaver), to discover why.
During sociology class one morning, Nathan is partnered with his next-door neighbor and longtime friend Karen Murphy (Lily Collins) for a school assignment about missing children.
While doing the homework together, Karen finds a website that, through age-progression technology, shows what children would look like as they got older. Nathan discovers that a boy named Steven Price, aged approximately 3 years when photographed 15 years ago, would look exactly like him in the present day.
A sea of eyes beneath me.
They're watching me as I increase in altitude.
Though my future is tainted, what a beautiful view.
Scared to death, on the edge of distress.
My blood is pumping, heart is racing as I enter the nest.
Well I bid you all farewell, and I hope that you'll remember my face.
I'm leaving this world I know behind.
Goodbye to all the filth that is mankind.
It won't be long until your punishment has dawned
And everything you've ever known is gone.
Nothing left for me to love, and it buries me.
Oh please heaven help me.
The earth has left me.
I've arrived in side my tomb.
This must be a sign of my imminent doom.
There are figures surrounding me, haunting me.
They're inside my head.
This is the passion yet I never claimed to be a king
So let me down and cut this string.
This is the walk with a cross.
A crown of thorns on my head.
So swing the hammer, watch the nails embed.
I'll pay the price for all of you to live a little more free,
But I'm the only one who doesn't need a cleansing.
Praise me, for I am washing away your sins.
