Garage Sale Mystery: The Deadly Room

I don't know how to describe this film except with the word ridiculous, it's all too far-fetched and hasty and the acting has something mechanical and unnatural, for heaven's sake the plot is also interesting and the film is light to see, but otherwise this movie is really ridiculous.

On the Eve of it's open house, news comes out that The Collins House is cursed and Jennifer's friend Adrian, who is the real estate agent plans on staying overnight in it on a live webcam to prove that it isn't. Only her plan backfires and Adrian ends up dead...live and on camera. Our intrepid purveyor of antiques Jennifer Shannon is determined to figure out what happened. This is a bit of a closed room mystery and a first in the garage sale mystery series based on books by Suzi Weinert, the third film in the series on Hallmark. It is also the first to start with a historical story, which seems appropriate for this antique heavy series.

Daughter Hannah has been recast and is now played by a Eva Bourne, otherwise the rest of the cast returns from the second film.

"I got it! Blow gun"-Dani.

The historic story involves a previous owner dying in the "deadly room" from typhus. There is a sub-story involving the son Logan and a Sadie Hawkins like dance. For some reason the daughter Hannah, who was going to lawschool in the first film, is suddenly working for her mom at their antique shop Rags to Riches.

Decent mystery and a recommendation from me...I think Cosy mystery fans will enjoy it.

These movies never disappoint! I love that Dani was the one to figure out the mystery first. Also, that house was stunning! I would definitely spend a creepy night there haha!

I've always loved movies with secret rooms and this one was not disappointing.

7/10 - fun and original mystery is one of the better Hallmark Movies and Mysteries features
