Anti-Valentine Movies
What movie is the antithesis of Valentine's Day? and why?

Good one. I'll go with "My Bloody Valentine," just because it's fun to dredge up old bad 80s horror movies.
I was thinking maybe some "Very Bad Things." Bachelor party gone wrong seems like a good anti-valentine theme.

"Sid & Nancy", could this be considered one? Or for that matter "Leaving Las Vegas?"
joe.shearer : RE: Anti-Valentine Movies More..
Those are good choices, but I'd term those both as maybe quasi-Valentine movies, because both of those are love stories that are portrayed unconventionally. Maybe that's the sort of think Nicki had in mind, though!
We had an "anti-prom" party in high school and watched Rocky Horror Picture Show... that's sort of anti-valentine as well I guess...
heck, I don't know what I meant! Just trying to think of what my friends and I want to watch to avoid this Hallmark holiday!

Oh! I'll go with my old standby, then: Hard Candy.
Nothing like suspected-pedophile torture. Good movie. A pre-"Juno" Ellen Page as the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood's clothing.
Nihilist: We believe in nothing, Lebowski. Nothing. And tomorrow we come back and we cut off your chonson.

Geez, Mr. T, don't get us started on the Lebowski quotes. That's a personal weakness of mine.
I second the vote for Sid & Nancy. Sure, it was considered a "love" story, but if that's what "love" is, does anyone REALLY need to go there??!

Oh tricky one ... I am going to go with "John Tucker Must Die" the LOVE in that movie it so out there - they are so cruel. I think in the end some one fall in love with some one but John had like 8 girlfriends.
