To respond to the OP, the uncanny Valley is that area were the being is almost perfect to a native. 'Almost' being the operative word. From 0 likeness up, as the likeness to a live human increasces, so does acceptability. But then once the likeness gets really close, there's this shutoff valve in people's minds that go, "wait, this isn't right." Accpetedness of familiarity of the being drops, and the hence the bump below looking like a valley; the thing looks unnany to the self, but it just rings wrong. Thus: Unaccny valley.
