Top 10 Best Raunchy Scenes in Horror Movies

Top 10 Best Raunchy Scenes in Horror Movies

Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’re counting down our picks for the instances where horror movies stopped being scary and started getting sexy. A SPOILER ALERT is now in effect!

#10: BFFs in Bed

“Jennifer’s Body” (2009)
Debatably overlooked in its time, “Jennifer’s Body” did demonic possession a little differently. Much of its marketing involved Megan Fox in skimpy clothes, and some of it teased clips of this sultry makeout scene. This occurs after Needy is getting ready to turn in for the night. Suddenly, she’s surprised by her possessed friend Jennifer. After getting over the initial shock, Needy is seduced into a steamy makeout session. While they don’t go further than kissing, the electric chemistry between the two childhood BFFs is undeniable. Even actress Amanda Seyfried has expressed passion about the allure of this scene. Although the kiss isn’t crucial to the plot, viewers definitely remember the time Needy and Jennifer locked lips.

#9: Jules Goes Wild

“The Cabin in the Woods” (2011)
What makes “The Cabin in the Woods” so fun to watch is that the creatives behind the camera were fully aware of scary movie tropes and wanted you to laugh along with them. One of the most common cliches is that two characters will somehow find the time and a place to have sex. Within this subversive movie, Jules is hit with pheromones that make her act seductively in front of all of her friends. She later takes some time with boyfriend for a hook up in a spooky forest. Although the hidden commentary adds a great layer of nuance to these spicy moments, these scenes still bring the heat.

#8: Hello, Nurse

“A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors” (1987)
Freddy Kreuger has put on plenty of disguises to lure his sleeping victims into deadly traps. During “Dream Warriors”, the villain puts on his most seductive outfit yet. When Joey falls asleep, he finds himself in front of a very attractive nurse. It doesn’t take much effort for the medical professional to seduce the eager dreamer. But just when the scene is about to get really steamy, Freddy shatters the illusion with a disgustingly long tongue. This was a great bait and switch scene that played on audience expectations. Unfortunately for Joey, this appointment was not exactly what the doctor ordered.

#7: A Scandalous Dip

“Piranha 3D” (2010)
Alexandre Aja’s “Piranha 3D” is a pretty great nod and wink to the halcyon heydays of exploitation cinema. The adult entertainer Danni was definitely representative of the tone that the filmmakers were going for. During the movie, an entire crowd gathers to see her dance on a boat.
Danni manages to titillate the crowd through her dancing and close relationship with a friend. However, she’s just getting started. While out on the water, Danni and a friend momentarily stop their swim to remove their bikinis and go for an extended dip. We can’t show even a second of this jaw-dropping scene. But trust us when we say that the atmospheric music and artsy camera angles made this risque swim really stand out.

#6: Bathroom Rendezvous

“Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers” (1988)
This campy horror film is full of campers who struggle with a murderous villain…and their hormones. There are numerous scenes where the cast pushes boundaries with scintillating content. However, the most hot and heavy sequence comes when Ally hooks up with Rob in the bathroom. The two characters can barely keep their hands off of each other during the scene. And thanks to a lower camera angle, there are portions of their hookup that are left fully to the viewer’s imagination. Although the two don’t have long to enjoy their private time, the whole sequence is unforgettable.

#5: Definitely Not a Virgin

“Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon” (2006)
“Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon,” is a fan-favorite mockumentary that follows an aspiring slasher killer. The titular “Leslie Vernon” aimed to get his name in the history books by going on a spree and leaving a virgin named Kelly alive. However, it turns out that the violent protagonist doesn’t have all his facts straight. After Leslie makes all his preparation, one of his allies goes to find Kelly. But the supposed virgin is in the middle of an intense bedroom encounter. This raunchy scene throws a wrench into expectations and sends Leslie’s plan sideways. As a further hilarious twist, Kelly is one of the first to die after screaming she isn’t a virgin.

#4: Psychological Sex

“American Psycho” (2000)
While many raunchy scenes in horror are primarily played for either titillation or laughs, the sex and death in “American Psycho” is out for neither of these things. This time around, we’re placed into the mind of the unhinged Patrick Bateman. An infamous scene sees the sinister character hire sex workers. As he asks them to strip and perform adult acts, he constantly talks down to them in a casual tone. Bateman’s seeming lack of investment in the women helps him come off as more unhinged. There’s also moments where he’s more interested in looking at his own reflection than paying attention to the woman in front of him. This provocative sequence serves as a great summary of everything wrong with Bateman.

#3: The Brides of Dracula

“Bram Stoker’s Dracula” (1992)
There’s just no getting around it: “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” is a very randy movie. The eroticism is so over-the-top at times, that it’s almost comical to watch with a modern lens. That said, there’s dollops of style behind this Francis Ford Coppola epic. This is particularly clear during the scene where the Brides of Dracula seduce Jonathan Harker. These creatures of the night are all over him. As the sensual scene goes on, the encounter feels increasingly more dangerous. But that aspect of peril is exactly what makes this vampiric hookup absolutely unforgettable. Fortunately for Jonathan, he manages to survive a very scandalous night.

#2: Wandering Fingers

“Idle Hands” (1999)
A particularly standout scene in this movie seemingly took the film’s title extremely literally. At one point, Tiffany is making out with her boyfriend in a car. Prior to this scene, Anton cut off his possessed hand. These two plotlines collide in a truly unexpected way. Right when the two lovers begin to undress, the hand decides to join in on the duo. The disembodied appendage ends up making its way to a very exposed part of Tiffany’s body we can’t show here. While this movie took a lot of surprising twists, the car scene definitely shocked us the most. Idle hands

#1: “Stupendous”

“Friday the 13th” (2009)
The “Friday the 13th” franchise is world-renowned for its genre-defining excesses of sex and violence. However, the 2009 reimagining went beyond the pale with a steamy scene that was even infamous for the franchise’s standards. The film warms viewers up with a sensual dance from Bree. She and her fellow cabin mate Brent end up getting a lot more intimate later on. During the scene, the dude describes a certain part of Bree as “Stupendous”. And to really sell this encounter, it’s broken up into three separate parts. Since the lovers aren’t killed in the middle of their hookup, the entire session is superfluous to the plot and gratuitous for the movie. It’s a sequence that belongs on the Mount Rushmore of raunchy horror scenes.
