Guy moves to an old farm in Princeton with his wife Jeanne Cooley and their two daughters, Molly and Lucy to build eight windmills to generate clean power to the city. The Cooley family has a cold reception in town, and while voting for the approval of the project, the old woman Gretchen Caswell votes against the construction with many followers and mentions the historic importance of the spot and the name of Martha. Jeanne researches and discloses that two hundred and fifty years ago, a girl called Lucy Keyes got lost in the woods and in spite of the efforts of her mother Martha Keyes and the locals, she was never found. When the ghost of Martha comes to the fields around their property calling for Lucy, Jeanne realizes that the legend is true and that there are many hidden secrets in that location.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
David_Habert I love movies based on the paranormal, especially haunted house ones. But I have also seen some which don't come even close to either being scary or the effects to create the ghost character(s) is crap. The legend of Lucy Keyes fits in both categories. If this is supposed to be a true story, than I'll tell you this. This movie isn't doing it any justice at all. Which is a shame.To make matters worse, the ghosts don't even show up until half way through the film, by that time any person who is watching it will have fallen asleep. (I almost did)The story is mostly about a family moving from the big city to a country village. Only to find that the house and land which is near the house, is haunted. (like that hasn't been done before) This concept is going past it's sell by date.As I said in my Summary, Boring as hell, Avoid it at all costs.There are better haunted house movies out there if you take the time to find and see them.
emilie h i live in the town next to where this movie is supposed to take place, so i knew of the legend very well and i grew up knowing it. i was disappointed when i heard they where making it into a movie, but once i saw it (mind you- it was the first time they played it on lifetime movie network..loll) i LOVED it! the actors are amazing, and its funny when i pass places that they filmed at cause I'm like "hey! the girl who played Lucy stood right here!" yeah- I'm really cool like that, but my friends are always stealing my copy of the movie to watch, i'd definitely recommend it for anyone. its a great scary movie because no one really gets hurt, so you can sleep well- unless you're me who lives pretty much in the same town XD
Antonio dos Reis Feitosa Neto I have just saw this movie on a cable reprise, home alone, and it seems that I have to talk about the movie. There is nobody home and I ended up writing to IMDb...For almost one hour nothing seems to happen in the movie. Sometimes it seems that the writers are not sure about the story they are trying to tell. Bad acting from the children, confuse plot, a mess.The script makes no sense. The secondary plots are uninteresting and unconvincing. And I am sure there I spent too many time listening to people calling out for Lucy, present or past Lucy. Endless. Useless.The ending is absurd. And I would like to ask to the bad guys in the movie (or the script writer) why in hell they and their ancestors managed to keep a letter of the author confessing the crime AND the original map of the land, for 250 years. Just in case a ghost may need it?
jpgonc The Legend of Lucy Keyes: I was really stupid thinking this one could rock stars. The movie is not bad, but sincerely it does not expand into nothing original nor outstanding.A city family moves into a rural zone where it lies a secret and a supernatural tale: An haunting folk story where a ghost of a woman wanders thru the woods at night trying to find her lost daughter 250 years ago.The acting is decent and the story is somewhat cool but the running of the film goes towards mediocrity and uncreativeness due to a lack of positive sets to make the audience captive and thrilled in the seat.If you're trying to watch a real horror movie don't go this way and avoid the party-hunting that sets off to find little Lucy Keyes...
