I'm not sure why 9 out of 10 lesbian films are poorly acted, super low budget, and with terrible scripts, but this movie is no departure, unfortunately.*Spoilers*Plot: A woman named Raven who dresses like she's been shopping at H&M but whose movements are stilted like a lizard and climbs trees finds a woman with very defined eyebrows (Kate) and her teenage kids (shifting from bratty to sweet in the same scene) camping, and yells at them for having a fire. This leads to more interactions, odd and implausible injuries, a crazy ex who runs off with the kids, and a VERY sudden, awkward, and out-of-place sex scene between Lizard Woman and Eyebrows. I literally cringed because it didn't make any sense for the women to like each other and there was no buildup or chemistry. It was also one of those "let's be artistic and sensual and do close ups of touching skin and kisses on the body" (i.e. sexless/foreplay only sex scenes) but with women who had no interest in each other. Then a random guy dies, Lizard Woman saves the kids from crazy ex, and love ensues right after the random guy's funeral.So....in short: bad acting, bad script, and just very odd overall. Terrible, terrible movie that was so unintentionally bad that I laughed at parts that were supposed to be touching and artistic. And so many unanswered questions, such as why would a woman who lived in a cabin and only away from "civilization" for one month walk and act like she'd been raised by wolves? Why is the small "town" that random guy mentions that is a few minutes away actually a large, residential area that looks suspiciously like an LA suburb? How would Eyebrows and Raven suddenly fall in love with each other ONE WEEK after Eyebrows just got out of a bad relationship with her crazy ex?There are much higher quality movies with lesbian themes; please avoid this one like the plague.

There are so few movies around with lesbian content that I try and watch any that come out. This one was again a truly disappointing experience. First up I should admit I am a movie fanatic. I'll watch anything, except SciFi and Horror. The story line of Raven's Touch is going nowhere, the acting is good, I must must admit. For the rest I got truly annoyed with the way the 'mad' Raven was portrayed. Raven moved to a remote cabin after a tragic accident that she blames herself for. So she runs around in the woods like a lunatic in underpants and singlet...? In time she meets a mother who has taken her kids camping, and the two form a special bond when their worlds collide. Just too silly a movie to spend more time writing about it.

Raven is not an amazon women like Tarzan. She's very depressed and feels guilty about a family members death. She goes to the woods where she grew up to get away. Kate is dealing with two teens and we know how that can be. Kate has broken up with her partner and she's wanting what may be the last camping trip she and the kids will have while they're still kids. She needs the family moments. Raven doesn't want to get close to anyone and Kate breaks down the wall a bit with her compassion, which may lead to new beginnings. I won't spoil it for you. Loved the movie! Soul Kiss gives us another winner. Dreya Weber and Traci Dinwiddie are fantastic actors.

The only thing right about this movie is the wrong story description given here on IMDb. Just read that little short synopsis and skip the movie! So here is my synopsis of this movie - There's this crazy amazon transsexual living in the woods and running around dressed like Tarzan. Raven is the name and she likes to find interesting shaped bits of wood and then takes a hunting knife or an ax to it to change it's shape even more. Raven spends a lot of time running around the woods - remember she's dressed like Tarzan. Every now and then old man Joe shows up and he gets his jolly's howling (singing) with Raven. Kate shows up with her two kids to camp in the woods. All she brings is a tent and a couple of chairs. The kids (teens) don't want to be there and I can understand why! Raven shows up like a wild beast and Kate gets all hot and bothered when she sees Raven. In the mean time Joe is wondering around town and meets Angela, she likes to cry. Then Angela drives into the woods and kidnaps the kids! Kate & Raven are at Raven's house getting it on hot and heavy. Angela shows up and tells Kate she kidnapped the kids but they ran away and are lost in the woods. Raven puts on her Tarzan outfit and takes off running through the woods with her little flashlight. One of the kids bumps her head and decides she can't cope. Raven shows up and hugs the kids after she has shoved them into an old hollow tree stump. Then there's a funeral for old man Joe and a bunch of people show up at Raven's house and go inside! The end. Oh, and Raven at this point is wearing a dress! So my question is - "Who snuffed out Joe?" Raven and the kids? Kate who stayed at Raven's house while Raven ran through the woods looking for the kids? Or was it that Angela - maybe that's why she was crying! Ha Hah!
