Bad movie choices for a romantic date

This is a different kind of list, but fun to come up with. It’s 15 films I’ve seen and liked that would make bad choices to watch on a romantic date. If your date likes any of these movies, (s)he is either very cool or very depraved. If you have any feedback on my choices or if you have more ideas for titles to add, let me know. As usual, if you click on the image of the movie, you will be taken to its listing in the Internet Movie Database where you can find all the information of its makers and cast. Here’s my list, in alphabetical order:

After Hours
He just wanted a date — but everything keeps going wrong.

Blue Velvet
Warped sex. Severed ear. S&M. Nothing to cuddle to here!

A Clockwork Orange
Your date will hate it — even though he does perform “Singin’ In The Rain.”

Eraserhead
If you were planning on having a kid, this could change your mind!

Freaks
Some mixed marriages just don’t work.

Hellraiser
My wife still hasn’t forgiven me for this one.

M
German child murderer films don’t work well to make out by.

Mr. Death: The Rise and Fall of Fred A. Leuchter, Jr.
A face only a neo-Nazi could love

Peeping Tom
Your date may never let you videotape her again.

Pink Flamingos
A transvestite plays the Most Disgusting Person In The World. Offends even the hard-to-offend.

Raging Bull
He’s a macho man, but I don’t think many girls will swoon for him.

Re-Animator
Watch this with your date and the one thing that may not be brought back to life is your romantic life.

Schindler’s List
A tear jerker to be sure — but not in the romantic sense.

Seconds
A creepy movie for men who feel bored with their lives (and wives).

Taxi Driver
He saves the girl! But he’s one sick knight in tarnished armor!
