By Zack Sharf. Digital News Director. Many of the films listed below are some of the sexiest films ever made, while nearly all of them are guaranteed to provoke and shock the viewer with their frank depictions of sex and intimacy. Heading the investigation is San Francisco police detective Nick Curran Michael Douglas , who becomes entangled in a torrid romance with Catherine.
This erotically charged thriller about the search for an ice-pick murderer in San Francisco rivets attention through its sleek style, attractive cast doing and thinking kinky things, and story, which is as weirdly implausible as it is intensely visceral⦠Stone has a career-making role here as a beautiful, smart manipulator who is always several steps ahead of everyone else. The movie has emerged as a cult classic over the years after initially dividing critics.
Campion takes the often male-directed erotic thriller and subverts it with a female gaze. In her film debut, Turner registers strongly as a hard gal with a past. Her deep-voiced delivery instantly recalls that of young Lauren Bacall without seeming like an imitation. Danish actress Sidse Babett Knudsen burns down the screen playing the employer, a seductive and controlling woman named Cynthia. Michael Douglas plays a married man who begins an illicit affair with a woman who becomes obsessed with him and refuses to let their fling end.
Set on a remote beach where gay men cruise for sex, the film stars Pierre Deladonchamps as a man who witnesses a murder in the lake and then becomes passionately attracted to the killer. Shot in lush, deceptively serene widescreen tableaux, this improbable cocktail makes for entrancing viewing, though the sight of ejaculating members will make it an extremely hard sell theatrically.
A lesbian romance told on sexually frank terms, the film earned strong buzz out of the Toronto International Film Festival. On paper, a film in which billionaire Robert Redford offers down-on-their-luck married couple Woody Harrelson and Demi Moore a cool million in exchange for one night with Demi sounds surefire. Onscreen, the result has little sex, goes nowhere interesting or believable in the second long hour, and sports an idiotic conclusion that looks like Test Marketing Ending No.
