I know why you’re here. I can’t prove it, admittedly. But I know you’ve been Google-searching “sex movies” or “sexy movies.” I’m not judging. Maybe you’re in a particular and peculiar mood and you’re looking to watch something bold but with substance. There’s a reason erotic thrillers were huge not so long ago; we’re all yearners deep down, and a good movie that oozes sex appeal strips our innermost desires completely bare.
While erotic thrillers have woefully vanished from theaters, streaming platforms have given the genre brand-new life. Netflix, still one of the biggest streamers today, has quite the selection of movies you can watch in the merciful privacy of your living room. And because Hollywood stopped making erotic thrillers like they used to, international markets like France, Germany, Spain, and Korea have stepped up to give closet horn dogs their fix for hot stuff. We might speak different languages, but feeling good is a universal pleasure.
From the simmering to the scary, here are 25 of the sexiest movies you can stream right now on Netflix.
