Lifetime presents a new thriller this Sunday, “Girl Taken,” a story about a teenage girl’s impulsive decision that spirals into a terrifying ordeal. After blaming her mother for a recent breakup, the teen runs away, accepting a ride from what she believes is a safe source—a family friend. But this act of kindness quickly morphs into a nightmare when he abducts her.
“Girl Taken” follows the young woman’s fight for survival and her mother’s frantic attempts to locate her. With Erica Durance and Eric Hicks leading the cast, the film explores the dark side of trust and the lengths a parent will go to protect their child. It’s a race against time, fueled by maternal instinct and a daughter’s will to live. “Girl Taken” premieres this Sunday, May 18 at 8:00 PM ET on Lifetime.
