Well there was a kind of psychological thing going on between Hannibal and Clarice which was a sort of perverted romance. And Hannibal does love Clarice, but I think it is more lust than romance. In any case I don't fully agree.

Yes, I was in doubt with that one too. But since nothing happens and it's nearly impossible, I didn't delete it.

I actually deleted "Signs" at the end too. Nearly forgot that the reason Gibson gave up of his holy ways in the first place was because his wife died, and there's the whole scene of the crash in the middle that can be considered as a romantic one.

mmm... the Japanese version does have some tension between the mother and father of the little boy. They're divsorsed or something...

Bad Taste by Peter Jackson doesn't have a love subplot. It doesn't really have a plot at all :P

Das Boot has homosexual undertones.
How, where? Unless you want to see something like this, it doesn't exist. :blink:

Blasphemy!
However I do hope they'll cut down on the whips and such.

brain dead rules. bad taste also has no love plot. or the frightners. or flatliners, (has more of a rejection plot) ditto day of the dead, altho .. does the breakdown of a relationship count as a love plot? if it does then day of the dead has a love plot becuse all that happens to the relationship in that movie is it disintigrates. then the man gets bitten by a zombie and lets all of the other freindly zombies into the underground base so they can romp around spreading there zombie love to all the happy soldiers. ahh. so cute.

isnt the passion of christina the porn version? with extra whips?

Does it really exist? I found the title amusing, but I guess it was just a matter of time (oh and the :whip: could fit in nicely)...

When you think about it - probably all porn movies are without a love story (lot of the old inout, in-out, but no love).

Here's more:
One Flew over Coocoo's nest
Shining
Silent Movie
Few Good Men
Men of Honor
Rat Race
Mr Bean
Lightning Jack
The man who knew too little

What about the movies with the main love story (they have no love sub-plot either).
