Finding Nemo as as a live-action film with people would be amongst the scariest concepts imaginable.
A young couple is expecting twins and moves into a respectable neighbourhood.
In a home invasion the wife is killed, one of the twins are lost, and the surviving child is born physically impaired.
Flash forward, the child is now ~10. He's a happy, normal child (minus the physical impediment). The father is wracked with anxiety at all times and emotionally suffocates the child.
The child wants to be independent (like any 10 year old) so in an act of rebellion with his friends he goes someplace a little bit shady.
He's kidnapped! All of the father's worst fears are realized.
Nobody can help him except a mentally handicapped outsider
