I just finished watching the movie Secretary, and it made me wonder what is your favorite "fetish" film?
Please don't talk about your favorite porn video, only legitemate films.

Right now the only one that comes to mind is Interview with a Vampire. The part when he bites her tit is so erotic.

I have never heard of Thestory of O, but i have seen Crash

I love "The Secretary." It's a great movie that treats the subject with smarts. "Henry and June" is also a pretty good movie. "Barbarella" is funny, but tame by today's standards. For a little weird I recommend "The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover"

EDIT: There was also a movie in the 80's called "Scandal" about upper class British society and a exotic dancer. It had some pretty hot scenes for the time.

Now another movie I have seen that is probably the most fucked up for lack of a better word is The Night Porter, its subject matter is just very unusual for a film with fetishistic elements.

yeah people tend to be touchy about the SS, i only watched it originally because Charolette Rambling is in it.

I havent seen shortbus, i'll have to put it on my netflix queue.

I do remember a movie I bought a few years ago that you might like if you can stomach Gerard Depardieu as some sort of sex symbol. I bought Maitresse without seeing it, I was addicted to buying criterion collection movies for a while, and it was a bit shocking. It is French and made in the 70's so it tends to be kind of slow in some parts but it is still fairly good as a movie. Be warned though, it is shocking and there was a repulsive scene involving a horse slaughter that is best fast forwarded. It does have classic leather and latex S&M elements though and can be enjoyed if you want to watch it purely for that.

BOUND, with Jennifer Tilly, Gina Gershon, Joe Pantoliano

Well worth a look

Me being a straight male, this does sound pretty shocking. Daisy chain is a funny term



I love that movie. I wish the Wachowski brothers would go back to their roots and direct more movies like bound.


As the thread has moved on to just disturbing films in general, has anyone seen Antichrist by Lars Von Trier? One of the most disturbing grotesquely beautiful films I've ever seen. It will stick with you for a while, very creepy.

Yes it does. I heard the sex in it is un-simulated as well. Pretty rare for a mainstream actor like him to partake in. It's a shame the movie didn't do that well. It really is different and really shocking in some parts.

The close-up sex scene in the shower in "Antichrist" is real but they used porn actors for that scene, not Dafoe or Gainsbourg.
In contrast, the sex scenes in "The idiots", also by von Trier, does have the normal actors engaging in real sex.

Insert typical super smart ass comment courtesy of thepainter here.

Hmm Center of the World for actual fetishism and Kinsey for an intelligent look at fetixhism and sex in general.

Just watched Adam Resurrected with Jeff Goldblum. Though not a fetish film, it has a few interesting scenes with the head nurse who pretends to be a dog that are very interesting.

I think what made crash so interesting is the way it successfully fetishizes something so un-sexy. When you think about it, the premise for the movie is pretty rediculous. Getting turned on by a car crash? It's rediculous but I totally believed the characters were really into it. It's impressive that cronenberg convinced enough investors to even get it made.

The Dreamers staring Eva Green, the story is wrapped around the sexual awakening of an american student in paris by a french brother and sister. very erotic and very interesting.
