"Being a big fan of Urban & Rural Legend, when I read about The Legend of Lucy Keyes- I knew I had to see this movie. The movie is about a family who moves from the big city to the confines of a small New England town. Little do they know that their new home once belonged to the Keyes family, a family who experienced the great loss of their daughter some 250 years ago. Based on the true story of Lucy Keyes, this 'independent' psychological thriller delivers the goods in some ways better than those films made in Hollywood. I loved it. John Stimpson directs, with an all-star cast with the likes of Brooke Adams, Justin Theroux, Julie Delpy, and Mark Boone Junior.
If you're looking for a good movie to watch during Halloween- this is, definitely, one to watch.

Interesting

"This movie is interesting for people who live in Princeton, MA. You get glimpses of your town, fire & police. The legend behind the movie is interesting as well. The movie is good, the ending a little dragged out. It lost me at the end, because it was so fictional. However, the parts where the true story was unfolded was interesting and well done. I live in Princeton myself and the person before who stated that this should be pulled of the shelf needs to calm down. I've only lived here a short time and I've noticed two sides to Princeton. One side- "high-class" (as they stated), snobby, rich. Other Side- Friendly, earthy, farm owners, very in tough with nature. I guess it just depends on what part of Princeton you're living in. As for the movie, well done. Making a movie must be tough & it's no one's right to make such rude comments about someone's passion and their projects. A lot of work probably went into this & I watch whenever it's aired on t.v."
Not scary, but interesting....

"The story is good - as most local legend stories go. There is a subplot which makes it interesting. You can tell the actors who are not familiar with the area - the ones who call WestMINster Road "Westmin-is-ter" Road. I would have thought someone in proofing or the writers might have noticed this. We New Englanders are used to unusual sounding names for our roads, mountains, and towns."
Mystery/Suspense - Here and There

"This movie tried to be suspenseful and mysterious, but these were just to few and far between. It puzzles me that someone thought the kids were whiney, because you hardly heard from them. I think what many people forget in a movie like this, where it's 'supposedly' based on a true story, you're only going to get so much out of it. Fiction is one thing, but non-ficiton is a whole new ballgame."
Ok movie

"DVD Audio is out of synch! It was hard to watch the film with the lip movement not matching the audio. I dont know if it was bad DVD compression or what.
The movie as a whole is generally good, and the features are a nice bonus as well. The only flaw is the audio being messed up."
