Aibu or is this very bad (not to mention creepy) cinema etiquette?

[GeraldineAubergine]

I went to watch twilight this afternoon as everyone at my house was too hungover to accompany me. Anyway when I got there the cinema was almost empty so I sat in an aisle seat and settled down for the film. An older couple came in and sat directly behind me, which was weird anyway as the cinema was empty but then the man hung his coat on my chair, so I couldn't lean my head back because it would have been resting on his frankly stinky coat. I glared at him but he didn't move it so I moved seats, to about three down.
So I am in a different seat in the still empty ish cinema and creepy coat couple got up and moved to the seat behind me again and put the coat there. Again. So I completely moved rows and they stayed where they where. He also kept making loud hawking sounds. Aibu to feel a) very irritated and b) creeped out? I don't think so but I kind of wish I said something.

whyever not geraldine? You're so fussy and demanding.

Creepy. But people like this rely on m8 not confronting them. I would have politely said 'Would you mind moving your coat please?' and 'Is there some reason why you keep following me when I move seats?' And ultimately go and report them to security. Hopefully it's a one off!

I think I should probably have said something, but I'm a bit cowardly and I thought how much trouble can he be if he's with a woman? But seriously. Ick.

Weird.

Not quite as bad but a few weeks ago was at the cinema with dh and dd. Cinema was empty apart from us and another family at the back. Bloke comes in about 15 mins before the end of the film, sits right behind us when he could have had the pick of the entire cinema, and proceeded to eat very noisily.

Just why!!

Moving after you did was very weird!

Dh and i went to the cinema the other week, cinems wss empyty when we got there. Only teo other couples came after us and one sat in the two seats in front of us, thr other in the two sests behind us. Why???

Then the woman behind dh went "i cant' see". Dh is 6 foot 5 ffs, what is wrong with people???

Yes! I can't understand why people want to sit together. I hate people sitting next to me, I like empty seats all round. I'm the same on the bus. Why do people sit next to you on the empty bus? Why?

YABU to go see Twilight. It wouldn't have happened during Skyfall

Either

A) He is a murderer and the coat concealed a poison dart which would stick in your neck when you leant back.

B) Its some sort of group sex code

C) They were having a bet like the time I went over to a woman in a bar and talked to her whilst removing my belt, holding it over my head like a football scarf , then putting it back on, all with a straight face .

The first time it happened, I would have thought they were lonely. When they followed you when you moved, I'm afraid I would have turned round and said to them "Why are you following me?" in a loud booming voice. But then I have said similar when creepy men in buses, trains, etc keep touching me with their bodies when its not that crowded...ugh.
