20 Sexiest Movies On Amazon Prime Video To Watch For A Steamy Night In
From kinky classics to hot new releases, there's something sexy for everyone.
For a sexy film to leave a lasting impression long after the credits roll, it’s crucial to strike an, ahem, satisfying balance between seduction and entertainment. (After all, you’re there for the plot as much as the scenes that get you hot!)
Movies featuring a hefty dose of on-screen eroticism and sexuality have been a staple of mainstream cinema for decades, but now, you don't need to watch any blush-inducing scenes sandwiched between strangers in a crowded movie theater. Amazon Prime has your hot and steamy movie night covered with kinky classics, like Eyes Wide Shut, and erotically-charged modern comedies, such as Afternoon Delight. They even have what’s considered to be one of the sexiest movies of all time: Bernardo Bertolucci's erotic drama Last Tango in Paris, which stars Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider.
Whether you're looking for some titillating blockbusters, like Fifty Shades of Grey and Magic Mike XXL, to enjoy solo, or want to watch a steamy indie romance, such as 28 Hotel Rooms, with your partner, look no further than these 20 best NSFW movie options. (And, hey, you may even get inspired to reenact a scene or two!)
Fifty Shades of Grey
You can't deny the explosive chemistry between literature student Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) and billionaire Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) in the 2015 hit movie Fifty Shades of Grey. Based on the bestselling book of the same name, the film is chock full of hot, steamy sex that might inspire you to explore the world of BDSM.
Whether it's the sexy elevator scene or the horny red room adventure, people leave Fifty Shades wanting more. (And, luckily they got it, since this is just the first film in a three-part series!)
Magic Mike XXL
Two words, one name: Channing Tatum. The supersized sequel to Magic Mike, this 2015 blockbuster delivers eye-candy for the soul. Former stripper Mike Lane (Channing Tatum) comes out of retirement to perform with his old crew known as the Kings of Tampa. It’s hot, it’s sexy, and did I mention it features Channing Tatum?
Showgirls
In Showgirls, a 1995 pulp noir dramedy, young, carefree drifter Nomi (Elizabeth Berkley) begins her journey in Las Vegas as a dancer and is soon clawing her way to the top. Although an “erotic film,” Showgirls doesn’t feature a lot of sex—in fact, there is only one sex scene. The movie does, however, have loads of erotica, lust, sensuality, and nudity.
28 Hotel Rooms
A casual one night stand between a struggling writer and an accountant from Seattle unexpectedly leads to a long-distance relationship that spans several years in—you guessed it—28 hotel rooms across the country. Despite attempting to go their separate ways, they surprisingly can’t seem to get enough of each other.
Love Jones
In this sexy romantic dramedy, a poet (Larenz Tate) and a photographer (Nia Long) are both hesitant to commit to a relationship, but that just leaves them both navigating an emotional minefield of confusion, jealousy, and regret.
Eyes Wide Shut
One of the most iconic sexy movies of all time, Eyes Wide Shut stars real-life married couple (at the time) Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise playing fictional spouses Alice and Bill. After Alice admits to Bill that she contemplated having an affair, he becomes obsessed with having sex with another person. Embarking on a night-long adventure, Bill infiltrates a masked group of an unnamed secret society at an exclusive sex club and see all kinds of kinks and fetishes firsthand.
The Neon Demon
Interested in a psychological horror film that features a lot of blood, gore, and sex? Look no further than The Neon Demon. This 2016 film follows aspiring model Jesse (played by Elle Fanning) who moves to L.A. to kickstart her career and soon finds herself in a creepy, sexy world of other models who will go to any length to get the beauty and youth she possesses.
The Voyeurs
In this erotic thriller starring Sydney Sweeney, a couple becomes obsessed with peeping on their neighbors’ sex life. But eventually, the couple's secret infatuation leads to some dangerously sexy times for all.
Last Tango In Paris
Considered one of the most obscene films of all time, this 1972 classic is as sexy as it is scandalous. Last Tango In Paris follows a recently widowed American man who begins an anonymous sexual relationship with a young Parisian woman. The film's raw portrayal of sexual violence and emotional turmoil led to international controversy and drew various levels of government censorship in different jurisdictions.
The Photograph
This sexy drama tells the love story of famed photographer Christina Eames and a rising journalist. When Christina dies unexpectedly, her daughter Mae (Issa Rae) finds a photograph tucked away in a safety deposit box. She soon delves into her mother's early life—an investigation that leads to an unexpected romance.
The Overnight
When a couple accepts a seemingly innocent dinner invitation, they don't expect the evening to turn into a night of seduction and temptation, but that's what they get—and more. (And by more, I mean an unexpected swinging/orgy situation.)
Afternoon Delight
Starring Kathryn Hahn and Juno Temple, Afternoon Delight is a sexy comedy that follows Rachel (Hahn), a rich, bored housewife who befriends a stripper named McKenna (Temple). Eventually, Rachel invites McKenna to be her live-in nanny, in an attempt to “save” her, but McKenna ends up showing Rachel just how fun life can be.
The Only Living Boy in New York
Recent college grad Thomas (Callum Turner) learns that his father Ethan (Pierce Brosnan) is having an affair with a beautiful and seductive woman named Johanna (Kate Beckinsale). Determined to break up the relationship, Thomas winds up sleeping with her, launching a chain of events that will change everything he thinks he knows about his family—and himself.
Jason’s Lyric
File this film under riveting, tragic and very, very sexy. Jason's Lyric follows the love story of TV salesman Jason (Allen Payne) and Lyric (Jada Pinkett Smith). As their romance blossoms, Jason has to face some tough choices—either continue to feel family responsibility or follow his heart and be with his girlfriend.
Notably, this film contains some of the most memorable sex scenes of Black culture. Not only do Jason and Lyric have sex in the woods that magically turns into a flower field, but later, they have sex again on the counter in Jason's workplace and reconcile after an argument.
Duck Butter
The plot of this film is simple, but nonetheless seductive. After meeting at a bar and feeling a shared spark, two young women decide to spend the next 24 hours having sex.
Sex And The City 2
You can’t have a list about sexy movies and *not* include Sex And The City 2. A sequel to the first movie and hit TV show, the romantic comedy follows the sex lives and relationship woes of four friends, Carrie, Samatha, Miranda and Charlotte. As with the series, Sex And The City 2 certainly lives up to its sexy name.
Sylvie’s Love
There's something about period pieces that just make a movie sexier. Sylive's Love transports viewers back to the 1950’s where a young woman meets an aspiring saxophonist. The spark between them ignites a sweeping romance that transcends changing times, geography, and professional success.
Blue Valentine
Behold, one of the sexiest movies on Prime Video. Starring Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling, Blue Valentine tells the story of two people who fall madly in love and then out of love again. Blue Valentine was infamously given an NC-17 rating by the MPAA for sexual content, but that rating was successfully appealed and reduced to an R.
Really Love
One of the best things about 2020 was the film Really Love. In contemporary Washington D.C., a rising Black painter (Kofi Siriboe) strives to break into the competitive art world, while balancing a bittersweet romance with a young, ambitious law student (Yootha Wong-Loi-Sing) he never saw coming. This film is raw, relatable, and, of course, about real love.
Basic Instinct
In Basic Instinct, Sharon Stone plays a crime novelist who becomes the suspect in a murder. Michael Douglas plays the detective investigating the case, and ultimately gets seduced by Stone. At the time of its release, the film generated controversy over its frank depictions of sex and sexuality. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the movie oozes sex appeal, particularly with one of its most infamous scenes that features Stone crossing her legs, with her vulva briefly visible.
