One of the more controversial picks on this list, ‘Last Tango in Paris’ is a pretty good film that bases its story, themes, and ideology around the act of lovemaking. For anyone looking for an erotic feature, this is definitely a must-watch! There’s a particular sex scene in here that is so insane (and as a result, a little bit ridiculous) that it’s kind of hard to forget.Īs a piece of film, the story isn’t anything smart or memorable, but I really like the ending, mainly because of the way the camera and actors move and emote during it. That, and the fact that nearly all the female characters (and a good number of the males) appear nude for most of the feature. Even then, the quick paced filmmaking strategy incorporated by Franco helps get the audience to stick around in their seats for the whole thing. It tries to function as a comedy but fails miserably in my opinion. This one stars his wife Lina Romay in the lead role, as a maid in a rich mansion with something of a dark past. Jesus Franco’s films are mostly remembered today for their dream-like narratives, captivating cinematography, mesmerizing soundtracks, and connections to all things sex-related. An all-round silly film mocking the tragic real events that “inspired” it, I would count this one as probably the most shocking feature on the list (visually speaking, of course), and maybe even the most creative, as I thoroughly appreciate Brass’ surreal vision when it comes to approaching his rather distasteful subject materials.ġ0. While not as erotic as many of Brass’ later features, ‘Salon Kitty’ still arouses with what it has.

Directed by the infamous erotica filmmaker Tinto Brass, this movie is a stand out from the crowd because of its (admittedly dumb) plot that aids its richness in nudity and softcore sex scenes. There was a burst of Nazi-related exploitation films during the ’70s and early ’80s, mostly to do with the ‘women-in-prison’ genre, and ‘Salon Kitty’ was one of the better ones to come out under this specific category of film (interestingly, the picture released at a time when the production of such films was at its peak, with old ideas being remade over and over again). Joe D’Amato, an icon of exploitation cinema, directed ‘Black Cobra Woman’, and I personally feel it’s one of his very best movies.
That being said, the music and the atmosphere of the film (one I’d describe as a bit of dark erotica and satire) help exemplify its seductive nature. Gemser was never one to take on explicit roles, and so there’s nothing here that’s too “dangerous”.
Her relationship with a rich playboy forms most of the film’s substance, and the plot isn’t as interesting as the sheer abundance of nudity and sex scenes presented. Here, she takes on quite a daring role, as a dancer in a club whose partner in the act happens to be a cobra (hence, the in-your-face title). If not for her breathtaking ethnic charms, her dazzling appearance and surprisingly good acting skills have me on my heels. Out of all the most popular sexploitation actresses of the 1970s, I think Laura Gemser would simply have to be my absolute favorite. Here is the list of top movies of the erotica genre, ranked on the basis of how sexually stimulating they are. It is fair (and probably right) to assume that some, if not all of the most erotic films ever made came out during this flashy decade, helmed by rebellious, unstoppable visionaries, starring legendary figures who would go on to be remembered and appreciated during the decades that followed. Mainstream audiences were also able to enjoy a couple of high-grossing X-rated releases, and topics of sexual liberation managed to foray into the likes of avant-garde cinema as well.
