Buried in Barstow

The last frame of this movie says, "To be continued." No mention of this was made in the movie description, and no indication was given as to when a sequel might drop. Had I known this in advance, I would not have watched the movie, which is probably why the lack of an ending was kept hidden. After much searching, I found one report that said three more sequels are planned to finish the story -- assuming people live that long.

That about sums up my disappointment with this production. What is captured by the camera does contain some artistic quality, but in the end it is a story without an ending. This film would have been more compelling if it has been produced as a limited series.

I liked it. Curious to see where it goes. Hoping it stays true to the pilot.

A distinct, "Dexter" vibe........hope it continues to be as deliciously dark.

Very interesting storyline, but unfortunately events in the movie are not resolved at the end. Several loose ends and a cliffhanger. Apparently, there are additional installments to be filmed. I suspect COVID probably slowed production down, as this seems to have been filmed during the early part of the epidemic.

As others have pointed out, it's not really filmed in Barstow, CA. However, it was filmed at a real restaurant, and it really is called Bridges BBQ. It's in Shelby, North Carolina. If you are ever in that area, it's well worth a visit! I have family in the area and we've eaten there since 1968. Good western NC barbecue.

Love this movie so much I have already watched twice. Angie and Kris are so talented! Lots of surprises kept me on the edge of my seat. I've read that there are 4 movies planned in this series and I cannot wait to see them all. The entire cast did an amazing job in their roles and I will most definitely be watching over and over again.

For a change just watched a "Lifetime" original movie this one "Buried in Barstow" which featured Hazel King(nice to see some work from Angie Harmon) a woman who's had a checkered past it's no ordinary life! Now Hazel has retreated to a small California desert town running a local diner with her daughter. And protection of the two is first thing yet as in life the past is complex and hard to run from. This for a TV movie was drama filled and a thrill. When characters from Hazel's past resurface she gets tough and does kick butt action! The drama and tension is felt. The movie has twists and turns and ends asking for more overall a fine watch for a TV movie and a must for any Angie Harmon fan.
