Actress Christine Taylor Recounts '90s Gunpoint Carjacking

Actress Christine Taylor recently shared a harrowing experience from the 1990s: being carjacked at gunpoint. The incident occurred in Los Angeles in the afternoon. Taylor and her then-roommate were approached by an assailant who demanded the car keys while brandishing a weapon. The ordeal, lasting only a couple of minutes, felt like an eternity and left a significant emotional impact.

Though she initially relied on friends and family for support, Taylor found an unexpected form of healing shortly after the carjacking. She was cast in the horror movie 'Night of the Demons 2.' Taylor described the acting experience as deeply therapeutic, allowing her to confront and process the trauma through her role in the film. Years later, with extensive therapy, she acknowledges that the event still triggers reactions, highlighting its profound and lasting effects.
