Abducted is a Canadian thriller film, directed by Boon Collins and released in 1986.[1] The film stars Lawrence King-Phillips as Vern, a mountain man who abducts jogger Renee (Roberta Weiss) and holds her prisoner at his cabin. Dan Haggerty also stars as Joe Evans, Vern's father who reluctantly kills Vern in order to save an escaping Renee during the film's climax.[2]
The cast also includes William Nunn, Stephen E. Miller, John Welsh, James Tyson, Rae Ford, Harold J. McCullough, Skip Borland, Rob Morton, Nelson Camire, Earl Jergens and Roy Waggoner.
VideoHound's Golden Movie Retriever characterized it as a "weird and unbelievably tedious" film whose primary value is that it contains spectacular wilderness footage.[2]
Peter Clements, David Appleby and Don White received a Genie Award nomination for Best Overall Sound at the 8th Genie Awards in 1987.[3]
Collins released a sequel film, Abducted II: The Reunion, in 1994.[4]
