Thinking out side the box I've Asperger I pay attention to detail and over look thing more than 5 time for those wouldn't know since you don't have Mental problems You're missing out. I able to enjoy more things then other in this world. This was an absolutely great movie I've seen since © 2016 Hush these We're great movies And if you feel any different about my opinion. Just goes to show that people with disabilities make a difference in this world. Amen

I could knock a couple off for the fairly poor makeup jobs on the 'zombies' but because they still somehow managed to be very creepy and because of how the zombie encounters were executed, with plenty of eeriness and slow build-up, and because this excellent piece of cinema was done on a budget under 200 dollars...they get a full ten from me. I really was on the side of this woman (and her stray cat). Without a word said by her, she won me over. This is NOT a film for high-volume guts- and -blood-loving zombie-film aficionados. So if that's your thing. don't go here. This is more like a 'what if' situation pitting a smart but severely hearing-impaired person alone against the odds in a horrible scenario; her determination, courage and even her compassion. This is a simple, slow brewing and tense Indie character study played out through a strange crises. It is also beautifully shot, cinematically speaking.

I have gone through many low budget horror movies that are high school quality atmosphere and acting. This one is excellent on zero budget.

This is just horrible. Any review of a 4 or 5 star is fake. Nobody could see this as a great movie. Writing is poor. Acting is commercial tampon quality and everything else is Freshman quality at best. I gave it 3 stars for the attempt and the budget accomplishment.

This movie could have been a real gem. It had a very unique core concept that could have definitely been the makings of an award winner. Unfortunately the movie is horrifically written with countless stupid actions and bad choices splattered all over it. One or two little things could have been overlooked, but there were just so many issues that the movie became downright painful to watch. No matter how artistically they tried to present it. It's plain to see that they have no idea how deaf people actually function in day to day life, but to make things worse they show a blatant ignorance of how general every day life goes. Such as ignoring the fact that 911 calls work on a cellphone even if you are stuck on local calls. Or the fact that if someone's house alarm warns them someone has broken in to their garage, the person would not just wander in there on their own. Or how when someone notices that all their services are cut (phone, tv, ELECTRICITY!) they wouldn't simply shrug and go back to their usual routine. Plus you have the infected, or whatever they were supposed to be in that terrible grade school makeup. We're given no indication about what they're doing. They just seem to either stand around watching the protagonist or slowly walk towards her. We don't even know if they were supposed to be any sort of threat. Hopefully someday someone with some actual talent will come along and try to make a classic out of this concept. But Raccoon Valley is just a complete flop.

This little gem was so perfectly filmed I could have watched it with the sound off, and it would still have had the same effect of the slowly building horror, loneliness and isolation of the main character. She was in a seemingly hopeless situation, yet never displayed hopelessness or despair, despite her fear. Rather, I saw her determination, strength and composure slowly manifest even as her understanding of the situation increased. If you are drawn to stories of horror and survival on a small scale, this movie is for you. I was amazed at the production budget of $175.00. I don't know how that's even possible, but the result was a very satisfying, engrossing and suspenseful story. I'm so glad I ignored the bad reviews, followed my gut and gave it a watch.

I had absolutely no idea what I was getting myself into here. I just saw the movie poster/cover for "Raccoon Valley" and decided to give it a chance. An hour and a half, give or taken, horribly wasted. This movie was abysmal. Sure, it started out great, with the audience being introduced to a chemical accident which quarantines a city, and a deaf woman being oblivious to the incident. The movie had so much potential. "Had" being the keyword here. Everything in the movie just fell shattered to the ground when director and writer Turner Clay decided to make it a movie about a woman doing mundane everyday chores oblivious to the events transpiring in the city around her. The movie had a very limited budget, which showed, and it had very, very limited acting performers in it, which also made the movie suffer. I will say that Terri Czapleski actually did a good job, despite the fact that she had absolutely nothing to work with. You are never brought in on the outcome of the chemical accident or what happened to the people. Instead you are treated to a few random straggling people showing up with laughable facial paints. The rest of the body unpainted, but the face is painted a very ridiculous way. It wasn't scary or believable for a second. It just brought embarrassment to the movie and it was cringeworthy to watch on the screen. Sure, the woman in the movie being deaf was a nice twist to the movie. But it would have worked so much more in favor of the movie if they had opted to keep it silent and just had the natural sounds occurring around her be all that was in the movie. But no. They opted to have some god awful music playing most of the entire movie. Music that was so annoying you just wanted to mute the movie. "Raccoon Valley" was atrocious, and I managed to stick with it to the end, as I grasped on to the straw that some illumination would be shed on the event of the chemical accident or what was going on. But no, that never came to fruition either, like everything else in the movie. Stay clear, very, very clear of "Raccoon Valley", because it is not worth it in any conceivable way.
