Would Zardoz be a good first date movie?

"Zardoz," the 1974 science fiction film directed by John Boorman, is definitely an unconventional choice for a first date movie. It's known for its surreal and often confusing plot, elaborate costumes (like Sean Connery's infamous red diaper outfit), and a mix of philosophical and dystopian themes. The movie can be polarizing due to its peculiar narrative and visual style.

If you both enjoy films that are out of the ordinary or have an interest in cult classics and can appreciate a film that sparks conversation—perhaps even debate—it might be an interesting choice. However, if you're unsure about your date's preferences in movies, it might be safer to opt for something with broader appeal to avoid the risk of it being too jarring or off-putting. Choosing a film that is more generally accessible could make for a more comfortable first date experience.

If its about the date, any movie works, you should be focused somewhere else anyway 😉

Is there Rifftrax?
