not as good as all the hype

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I found the beginning of the movie to be insulting. Lori is given the keys to open a locker and finds a dead girl laying on the floor. The detective arrives and says it looks like the girl accidently tripped and hit her head and died..........that is not just a stupid statement, it is IMPOSSIBLE. It HAD to be murder. If the girl had accidentally fallen and died, the gate would still be open. Only the killer of the girl could have closed the gate and locked it with the dead girl inside. I stopped watching after that as I just couldn't stand that nonsense in a mystery.

This Garage Sale Mystery: The Mask Murder has Lori Loughlin going to an auction at a storage facility center to purchase sight unseen the contents of a storage locker. I kept thinking about Forrest Gump in that you don't know what you're getting until you open it up.When she opens a second one she discovers the dead body of Rachelle Gillis a woman who worked in the place. She was by all who knew her a nice girl who everyone liked. Either the motive for killing her was something in her personal life or it involved her job because there were definitely shennanigans being pulled by those who owned the place.The rest of her family is involved in some Habitat For Humanity type project even her computer wise son Connor Stanhope. He lends her no assistance in this story.The motive is either personal or it involed where she worked. The film gradually veers from one to the other providing tantalizing clues. It was nicely done that way and the murderer is one whom we see very little of throughout the film in the end.One of the better stories in this film series.
