If you’re trying to get in the mood or simply looking for a great psychological thriller with some hot-and-heavy moments, look no further.
Below are 18 sexually explicit movies and how to watch them with one simple click. But before we get started, those looking for any of those “Showtime After Dark” movies and specials are going to have to find those themselves.
A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011)
The Director: Todd Strauss-Schulson
The Cast: John Cho, Kal Penn, Neil Patrick Harris
What It’s About: Years after their latest adventure (or misadventure, depending on how you look at it), Harold and Kumar attempt to reignite their friendship by taking off on a journey to find a Christmas tree before it’s too late.
What To Expect: Though the description makes this sound like a fun, wholesome holiday romp, this is anything but. Expect crude humor, profanity, nudity, insanity, and a partridge in a pear tree.
Fatal Attraction (1987)
The Director: Adrian Lyne
The Cast: Michael Douglas, Glenn Close, Anne Archer
Based On: Diversion by James Dearden
What It’s About: After a high-profile attorney calls off an extramarital affair, the husband and father becomes the target of the former lover.
What To Expect: Fatal Attraction is one of those movies that makes it very clear that you should never, under any circumstances, cheat on your spouse. But besides that, this erotic thriller is steamy, raunchy, and admittedly a good time.
Scary Movie 2 (2001)
The Director: Keenan Ivory Wayans
The Cast: Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, Anna Faris
What It’s About: When a group of college students travels to a mysterious mansion called Hell House, they encounter all types of supernatural beings with nefarious intentions.
What To Expect: Much like its predecessor, Scary Movie 2 is an extremely raunchy, depraved, and absurd comedy that pokes fun at all the major horror franchises of the time. Just watch out for a certain butler and his “strong hand.”
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
The Director: Robert Rodriguez
The Cast: George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Quentin Tarantino
What It’s About: On the run after pulling off a bank robbery, two brothers kidnap a family and their RV and hold up at a bar south of the U.S.-Mexico border, where they come face-to-face with a horde of vampires.
What To Expect: Written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Robert Rodriguez, From Dusk till Dawn has as much sex appeal as it does horror. With some seriously sexy vampires and buckets of blood, there’s a lot to unpack here.
The Big Short (2015)
The Director: Adam McKay
The Cast: Christian Bale, Ryan Gosling, Brad Pitt
Based On: The Big Short by Michael Lewis
What It’s About: Leading up to the 2008 financial crisis, crafty investors begin to see the cracks in the economy and hedge a bet that could make them filthy rich.
What To Expect: The Big Short isn’t your typical “based on a true story” type of affair. It’s loud, brash, a little depressing, and fun as hell. So, why’s a movie about the economy crashing on this list? Well, that’s where gentlemen's clubs enter the story.
40 Days And 40 Nights (2002)
The Director: Michael Lehmann
The Cast: Josh Hartnett, Shannyn Sossamon, Vinessa Shaw
What It’s About: In order to get over a devastating breakup (and overcome some serious sexual dysfunction), a web developer decides to give abstinence a try during the 40 days of Lent.
What To Expect: Blending elements of romantic comedies and surrealist fantasies, 40 Days and 40 Nights crafts a hilarious yet thoughtful story about love, lust, and getting over trauma.
Varsity Blues (1999)
The Director: Brian Robbins
The Cast: James Van Der Beek, Jon Voight, Paul Walker
What It’s About: After the star quarterback of his football team suffers a season-ending injury, a high school senior becomes a reluctant hometown hero.
What To Expect: One of the best football movies (at least in terms of high school sports), Varsity Blues is not only a great sports film but also an in-depth exploration of small-town politics and the lengths people will go to win. Did we mention it’s also wildly raunchy with its erotic clubs and unorthodox uses of whipping cream?
Flight (2012)
The Director: Robert Zemeckis
The Cast: Denzel Washington, Kelly Reilly, Don Cheadle
What It’s About: After pulling off a remarkable crash landing that saves the lives of nearly everyone onboard, a commercial pilot is put under investigation when it’s discovered he was intoxicated throughout the ordeal.
What To Expect: Featuring easily one of Denzel Washington’s best performances of the 21st century, Flight is an emotional, action-packed, and drug-and-alcohol-fueled character study that doesn’t hold back.
No Strings Attached (2011)
The Director: Ivan Reitman
The Cast: Natalie Portman, Ashton Kutcher, Kevin Kline
What It’s About: Two close friends believe that yes, they can have sex with one another without falling in love and making things complicated.
What To Expect: Not to be confused with Friends with Benefits, Ivan Reitman’s No Strings Attached is a charming, thoughtful, and sexy exploration of love, lust, friendship, and crossing boundaries.
Cold Mountain (2003)
The Director: Anthony Minghella
The Cast: Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Renée Zellweger
Based On: Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier
What It’s About: Years after the American Civil War ripped them from one another’s arms, two lovers go to great lengths to reunite, no matter the cost.
What To Expect: On one hand, Anthony Minghella’s Cold Mountain is a Civil War epic that depicts a country on the verge of collapse, but on the other, it’s a tale of love and passion, and how far two people will go to be together.
Allied (2016)
The Director: Robert Zemeckis
The Cast: Brad Pitt, Marion Cotillard, Jared Harris
What It’s About: The lives of two spies become even more complicated in the middle of World War II when love gets in the way.
What To Expect: Robert Zemeckis’ Allied is an intense, emotional, and dramatic exploration of love, lust, and duty to country told through the stories of two complicated and complex individuals.
Love Me (2024)
The Director: Sam Zuchero, Andy Zuchero
The Cast: Kristen Stewart, Steven Yeun
What It’s About: Centuries after humanity has been eradicated, a weather buoy and a satellite begin a rather unique relationship, one that sees them go from inanimate objects to physical lovers.
What To Expect: Sam and Andy Zuchero’s sci-fi love story starring Kristen Stewart and Steven Yeun is unlike anything else on this list, thanks to its offbeat yet emotional story, enticing romance, and dynamic worldview.
Sasquatch Sunset (2024)
The Director: Nathan Zellner, David Zellner
The Cast: Riley Keough, Jesse Eisenberg, Christophe Zajac-Denek
What It’s About: Over the course of a single year, the trials, tribulations, and lives of a family of sasquatch are explored in great detail. Yes, your eyes aren’t tricking you.
What To Expect: Though Sasquatch Sunset is explicit in nature (the sex scenes are bonkers), don’t go into it thinking you’re going to see some Hollywood stars getting it on. Instead, as the name implies, it’s Sasquatch doing the dirty in this truly bizarre fantasy drama.
Strange Darling (2024)
The Director: JT Mollner
The Cast: Willa Fitzgerald, Kyle Gallner, Madisen Beaty
What It’s About: After a one-night stand spirals into a vicious and unpredictable game of cat-and-mouse, a young woman is forced to take shelter in the unforgiving wilderness if she’s going to survive this night from hell.
What To Expect: JT Mollner’s Strange Darling, which is told in a non-linear structure, is as racy as it is intense with its wild sexual encounters and terrifying race for survival.
Basic Instinct (1992)
The Director: Paul Verhoeven
The Cast: Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, Jeanne Tripplehorn
What It’s About: After a crime novelist becomes the prime suspect in the brutal murder of a musician, she is investigated by an embattled detective who wants to be with her as much as he wants to solve the case.
What To Expect: With a movie romance that ended up in a dark place, decade-defining scenes, and a level of sensuality that goes unmatched, Basic Instinct was, is, and always will be in a league of its own.
Vanilla Sky (2001)
The Director: Cameron Crowe
The Cast: Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz
What It’s About: Locked away in prison, a physically and mentally broken man recounts the events of his life that brought him to that point. However, the lines between truth and fiction become increasingly blurred as his story unfolds.
What To Expect: Vanilla Sky has everything you’d want in an ambitious psychological thriller: romance, mystery, suspense, and the feeling of not being able to tell reality from fantasy.
Babylon (2022)
The Director: Damien Chazelle
The Cast: Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Diego Calva
What It’s About: During Hollywood’s transition from silent films to “talkies,” actors, directors, and others associated with the industry try to survive the changing times.
What To Expect: Considering Damien Chazelle’s Babylon is set in the roaring ‘20s, it should be no surprise that this three-hour movie is filled with excess, depravity, and some of the steamiest moments of the past decade.
The Return (2024)
The Director: Uberto Pasolini
The Cast: Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Charlie Plummer
Based On: The Odyssey by Homer
What It’s About: Ten years after the end of the Trojan War, and 20 years after first setting sail, an aged and broken Odysseus returns to reclaim his throne and reunite with his wife.
What To Expect: Though all of the mythological elements of Homer’s The Odyssey are missing from Uberto Pasolini’s The Return, this movie has enough violence, nudity, and drama to hold just about everyone over.
All of these erotic thrillers, mind-bending dramas, historical epics, and wild-as-hell sex comedies available on Paramount+ should certainly do the trick.
