A Dark New Chapter In Lifetime’s ‘Girl In‘ Collection

Lifetime is back with another gripping addition to its popular “Girl In” movie franchise, and this one promises to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Girl In The Cellar takes the network’s trademark suspense to new levels with a psychological drama that explores trauma, control, and the terrifying cycle of abuse.

The film stars Kyla Pratt as Rebecca, a mother desperate to keep her daughter Lory (played by Kelcey Mawema) from making what she believes are dangerous life choices.

But Rebecca’s idea of “protection” quickly spirals into something far more sinister.

The Plot: A Cellar Full Of Secrets

Rebecca becomes alarmed after learning that her daughter is hiding a boyfriend from her.

Convinced Lory is headed down the wrong path, she makes a shocking decision, locking her daughter in the basement cellar.

What Lory doesn’t realize is that this isn’t just any basement.

It’s the very same place Rebecca was once held captive by her abusive father.

Now, as Lory fights to survive, her mother’s fractured past collides with the present, raising questions of guilt, justification, and generational trauma.

As neighbors begin to notice Lory’s disappearance and Rebecca’s behavior turns suspicious, the truth becomes harder to hide.

The real question is, will Lory escape before history repeats itself in the darkest way?
