Your problem is simple: you are watching movies with the wrong woman.
That said, I am not a fan of violence and gore in movies. But I do not believe it will cause anything other than me having an unpleasant time watching a film with gratuitous violence. And my solution is different: I generally just avoid watching films with too much gore in them. However, if it is important to the point of the film (if it has a point), then it is right and proper that it is there. Like in A Clockwork Orange, the violence is necessary to what the film is about, and isn't simply a gore-fest. And, of course, by today's standards, it may seem rather tame.
