- DirectorVincent GalloStarsVincent GalloChloë SevignyCheryl TiegsProfessional motorcycle racer Bud Clay heads from New Hampshire to California to race again. Along the way he meets various needy women who provide him with the cure to his own loneliness, but only a certain woman from his past will truly satisfy him.The Brown Bunny is the independent Cannes film that made Chloë Sevigny a household name. It's also the film where she notoriously gave costar and director Vincent Gallo a very real and very graphic blow job. Many were suspicious about the authenticity of the fellatio scene between the two stars, but Sevigny herself has admitted that it is indeed real. The movie polarized audiences at Cannes, but it has lived in infamy for the scene that blew Sevigny onto the Hollywood landscape as a fashion icon and successful actress.
- DirectorGaspar NoéStarsAomi MuyockKarl GlusmanKlara KristinMurphy is an American living in Paris who enters a highly sexually and emotionally charged relationship with Electra. Unaware of the effect it will have on their relationship, they invite their pretty neighbor into their bed.Gaspar Noé's 2015 film, Love, featured real sex between actors Karl Glusman and Aomi Muyock. But Noé took his erotic romance film to the next level by producing it in 3D! Love is first and foremost about sex in 3D and only secondly about the dramatic love story between the two protagonists. Most of the sex was not choreographed and Noé admitted he hoped his film would give men "erections" and get women "wet."
- DirectorClement VirgoStarsLauren Lee SmithEric BalfourPolly ShannonAn outgoing, sexually aggressive young woman meets and begins a torrid affair with an equally aggressive young man in which their affair begins to bring a strain on their personal lives.Lie with Me has a lot of sex, and those sex scenes looked pretty realistic to audiences. So much so, in fact, that people started probing about their authenticity. The L Word's Lauren Lee Smith and actor Eric Balfour starred as lovers in the film, and both eventually owned up to the fact that their naughty scenes were actually unsimulated. The decision shocked critics mainly because both actors are fairly famous and well-known.
- DirectorLars von TrierStarsWillem DafoeCharlotte GainsbourgStorm Acheche SahlstrømA grieving couple retreat to their cabin in the woods, hoping to repair their broken hearts and troubled marriage, but nature takes its course and things go from bad to worse.Yet another Lars von Trier film, Antichrist stars Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg as two characters struggling to come to terms with their toddler's accidental death. The film takes on a whole new definition of erotic horror, and features intense sex scenes between Dafoe and Gainsbourg. One scene in particular has been credited as unsimulated. However, it did not feature the two actors, but instead utilized body doubles for the scene. The sex in Antichrist is hardly sexy and mostly remembered for being beyond creepy, especially when it comes to that one scene involving genital mutilation. Yikes.
- DirectorPaul MorrisonStarsRobert PattinsonJavier BeltránMatthew McNultyAbout the young life and loves of artist Salvador Dalí, filmmaker Luis Buñuel and writer Federico García Lorca.Robert Pattinson's orgasm face (as Salvador Dalí in Little Ashes) seemed a little too real to audiences. And they weren't wrong. Pattinson recently admitted that he masturbated onscreen for the scene in order to make it realistic. According to Pattinson, faking the scene “just doesn’t work." "So I pleasured myself in front of the camera. My orgasm face is recorded for eternity," he said.
- DirectorTinto BrassStarsMalcolm McDowellPeter O'TooleHelen MirrenA dramatization of the ascent to Caesar and subsequent reign of Caligula, one of the most notorious leaders of ancient Rome. We see his ambition, his scheming, his perversion and decadence, his brutality and his lunacy.Penthouse Magazine founder Bob Guccione produced the intensely erotic historical drama Caligula about the fall of the Roman emperor of the same name. It can't be all that surprising that the founder of a pornographic men's magazine wanted to make a movie with unsimulated sex. The movie, starring Helen Mirren and Malcolm McDowell, featured after-the-fact sex scenes that Guccione filmed in private. Although the leads of the film didn't have sex themselves, Guccione's personal Penthouse Pets filmed unsimulated scenes for post-production.
- DirectorDavid WnendtStarsCarla JuriChristoph LetkowskiMarlen KruseThe adventures of an eccentric girl who has strange attitudes towards hygiene and sexuality longs for the reunion of her divorced parents.Wetlands is not a film for the faint of heart. It stars Carla Juri as a hypersexual teenager who refuses to uphold even the most fundamental hygienic standards of cleanliness. She also engages in some lewd sexual activities, including masturbating with vegetables. In one scene, a group of men ejaculate on top of a pizza, which was in no way sugarcoated for the big screen.
- DirectorPatrice ChéreauStarsMark RylanceKerry FoxSusannah HarkerA failed London musician meets once a week with a woman for a series of intense sexual encounters to get away from the realities of life. But when he begins inquiring about her, it puts their relationship at risk.Intimacy tells the story of two strangers who engage in anonymous sex. Actors Mark Rylance and Kerry Fox participated in unsimulated scenes for the roles. The film, which features Fox giving Rylance the oral treatment, is surprisingly considered mainstream.
- DirectorMichael WinterbottomStarsKieran O'BrienMargo StilleyRobert Levon BeenIn London, intense sexual encounters take place between an American college student, named Lisa, and an English scientist, named Matt, between attending rock concerts.Michael Winterbottom's 9 Songs came under fire for featuring real intercourse between actors Kieran O'Brien and Margo Stilley. Both penetrative and oral sex are shown on screen, as well as a controversial moment in which O'Brien ejaculates. While production filmed nine live performances from prominent rock bands, it's mostly remembered for some very NSFW sex scenes.
- DirectorLars von TrierStarsCharlotte GainsbourgStellan SkarsgårdStacy MartinA self-diagnosed nymphomaniac recounts her erotic experiences to the man who saved her after a beating.Lars von Trier's controversial two-part Nymphomaniac featured no small amount of unsimulated sex scenes. When actor Shia LaBeouf signed on as a love interest opposite Stacy Martin, rumors spread about the real sex they'd perform for the film. Lars von Trier had already mentioned that his racy film would feature real intercourse. LaBeouf initially said he agreed to participate in the unsimulated scenes. However, when the film finally premiered, it was revealed that the actual sex was performed between two porn stars. LaBeouf and Martin's bodies were superimposed with CGI for the pornographic scenes.
- DirectorMelvin Van PeeblesStarsMelvin Van PeeblesHubert ScalesJohn DullaghanAfter saving a Black Panther from some racist cops, a black male prostitute goes on the run from "the man" with the help of the ghetto community and some disillusioned Hells Angels.Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song is known for a number of things (aside from it's ridiculously long title), primarily its subversion of the "blacksploitation" films that plagued the '70s. Melvin Van Peebles, who is almost entirely responsible for all creative aspects of the film, starred in the movie about an African-American man on the run from the white police. Van Peebles also notoriously engaged in real sex for the film's raunchiest scenes. He was credited with performing all of his own "stunts..."
- DirectorJohn WatersStarsDivineDavid LocharyMary Vivian PearceNotorious Baltimore criminal and underground figure Divine goes up against a sleazy married couple who make a passionate attempt to humiliate her and seize her tabloid-given title as "The Filthiest Person Alive".Pink Flamingos is considered one of the grossest movies ever made. It starred a drag queen named Divine who has been labeled "the filthiest person alive." Unsurprisingly, this movie is mostly known for its crude scenes and even cruder sex scenes. In likely the film's most famous moment, Divine gives unsimulated fellatio to a man who is playing her son in the film. The movie was banned in several countries, including Australia and Canada, for this scene alone.
- DirectorLars von TrierStarsBodil JørgensenJens AlbinusAnne Louise HassingThe group of people gather at the house in Copenhagen suburb to break all the limitations and to bring out the "inner idiot" in themselves.Lars von Trier appears again with his controversial 1998 film The Idiots. The story is about a group of friends who give up their inhibitions and decide to act on their "idiot" qualities. Although most of the sex scenes, which include some orgies and a whole lot nakedness, are actually faked, there is a particular scene that shows unsimulated intercourse. You can't see the couple's faces, but you can see them having penetrative sex in one of the orgy scenes. The film got the okay for a theatrical release, but future editions of the scene were pixelated.
- DirectorJohn Cameron MitchellStarsSook-Yin LeePeter SticklesPJ DeBoyA group of New Yorkers caught up in their romantic-sexual milieu converge at an underground salon infamous for its blend of art, music, politics, and carnality.A group of young people in New York trying to find themselves emotionally. Sounds like the plot of Rent, right? Nope, it's the drama Shortbus. Known primarily for featuring unsimulated scenes, the movie is about an array of quirky young people who meet at a "social" club on a weekly basis to "connect" with people. The actors were encouraged to really release, especially for the final group scene. Director John Cameron Mitchell can be seen in the final scene engaging in the fun. Mitchell cited team solidarity as his reason for participating.
