Sure, nothing like spoilering a 40 year old movie.

Close. It's A stranger is Watching.

You're welcome. Movie was 82. Book was 77.



They are kidnapped and under Grand Central Station. From Wiki.

quote:

The main characters in the novel are Steve Peterson, whose wife Nina was murdered two years before, his six-year-old son Neil, who witnessed the murder, and Sharon Martin, a young journalist who befriends them both. The novel opens as Steve and Sharon debate capital punishment. A young man named Ronald Thompson has been sentenced to death for Nina's murder. Sharon is against the death penalty and tries to save Thompson. Unknown to them, Thompson is actually innocent. The real killer is a psychopath named August Rommel Taggart, Arty for short. He calls himself Foxy because General Rommel was called the desert fox. He kidnaps Sharon and Neil, hiding them under New York's famed Grand Central Station. The rest of the novel describes the race against time to save the two innocent victims.

Okay, I remember seeing this scene as a kid in the mid 90's (so the film has to be at least that old), and I still remember it.



Just a shot in the dark, this sounds like one of the Deathwish Movies with Charles Bronson.
