Erotic Movies to Spice Up Your Home Cinema

The term "erotic films" often causes confusion. Although they are adult films due to their content, they are associated with pornographic productions. However, the goal of erotic films is not just to depict sexual acts explicitly but to tell a story with elements of sex and sensuality. If you're looking to explore something new in cinema, we've selected some erotic films to watch in the comfort of your home—keeping in mind, of course, that the films on the list are for adults only. From 'Fifty Shades of Grey' and 'After' franchises to 'Call Me By Your Name'.

Of course, we couldn't miss the most well-known film when we talk about erotic cinema—even though it's far from daring or quality compared to others on the list. ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ tells the story of a young woman who quickly falls for the seduction of a successful man. It's a banal story with banal characters, yet it has garnered a huge number of fans worldwide.

Okay, ‘365 Days’ is one of the most problematic erotic films of recent years but also one of the most popular (in the vein of ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’). A woman falls into the hands of a mafia boss who gives her a year to fall in love with him. This is how a marathon of free, but very effective, sensuality begins. ‘365 Days’ (or ‘365 dni’), released in 2020, was a huge success on Netflix and secured a sequel, ‘365 Days: This Day’, also based on the Polish book saga written by Blanka Lipinska. If you liked the first film, it's worth checking out how Laura and Massimo's relationship is going, especially if the idea is to see steamy scenes in a production that tries to be a romantic drama.

And following ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’, we have ‘After’, the literary saga that took the wave of erotic films to a new niche: young adults. The story narrates the on-and-off stormy relationship of the typical good girl (Josephine Langford) and the typical bad boy (Hero Fiennes). Although problematic in its narrative, it ignites passion among a legion of fans. Check here where to watch all the ‘After’ movies.

Stanley Kubrick himself might have contested the classification of his last work as an "erotic film," but the truth is that 'Eyes Wide Shut' has elements to fit the category (even if the director's typical coldness makes it more disturbing than exciting). It's a psychological thriller in which a respected doctor, Bill Hartford, spirals into obsession when his wife confesses to having sexual fantasies about another man. One night, he discovers a clandestine congregation dedicated to sex, leading him into a life full of paranoia.
