Magic Mike’s Last Dance
While the first two Magic Mike movies are (tragically) no longer on Max, you can still find the latest installment in the series: Magic Mike’s Last Dance, in which Channing Tatum reprises his role as Mike Lane, a male stripper who’s down on his luck. He meets Max (played by Salma Hayek Pinault) who offers him a job in London producing and choreographing a play. Tons of sexual chemistry (and, spoiler alert: some actual sex) ensues.
The hottest part: The lap dance Mike gives Max at the beginning. You’ll be sweating within the first 15 minutes.

Ghost
Okay so, PSA: This movie is really only sexy for a few minutes until it becomes devastatingly heartbreaking. But! The sex scene between Molly (Demi Moore) and Sam (Patrick Swayze) at the beginning around her pottery wheel is so iconic, it deserves a top spot on this list. Go watch it ASAP.
The hottest part: The aforementioned iconic pottery wheel sex scene. Clay has never looked more hot.

Jennifer’s Body
Megan Fox plays Jennifer, a Cool Girl TM who gets possessed by a demon and starts seducing (and, ahem, killing) the guys in her school. When her best friend Needy (played by Amanda Seyfried) learns what happened, she does everything (and I really do mean everything) she can to save her.
The hottest part: The very spicy make out scene between Needy and Jennifer.

The “Fifty Shades” Trilogy
As problematic as the Fifty Shades trilogy is (real-life BDSM is so much more complex and nuanced than what this series painted it out to be), the sex scenes are graphic and will definitely satisfy if you’re looking for depictions of rough, whips-and-chains, tie-me-up sex.
The hottest part: The ice cube scene?!?! (IYKYK, and if you don’t, you can find out in the first movie around the one-hour mark.)

Don’t Worry Darling
You’d be hard-pressed to find someone who hasn’t already seen Don’t Worry Darling or at least heard about all the behind-the-scenes celeb drama that reportedly went down. Nevertheless, this thriller directed by Olivia Wilde is about a housewife in a picturesque suburban town (think: The Stepford Wives) who starts to notice not everything is as it seems.
The hottest part: The scene where Harry Styles goes! down! on! Florence Pugh. You heard me.

The White Lotus (Seasons 1 and 2)
Season 1 of this v popular show is available to stream in full, while season 2 is currently premiering one episode per week (Sundays at 9 p.m. ET). Both seasons follow different story lines but they both center around a group of people who vacation at “White Lotus” resorts—the first in Hawaii, the second in Italy—and the (often complex) relationship dynamics they experience. Oh, and there’s murder. There are layers to this show!
The hottest part: This is a show about people on vacation and vacation sex? Inherently sexy.

Sex and the City
Unless you’ve been living under a rock since the ’90s, it’s safe to say you know about Sex and the City—especially its raunchy sex scenes. If you want to take a shot every time you see a topless woman or a butt naked man, well, good luck.
The hottest part: It’s hard to pick just one hot sex scene from the show or the movies, but my personal fave? When Samatha goes down on a woman for the first time. Although a little clumsy, it’s undeniable that this scene is top-notch.

And Just Like That…
The Sex and the City revival (which got renewed for a second season!) finds Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda juggling life in their 50s, and though not as steamy as the original series, it wouldn’t be Sex and the City without, well, sex in the city.
The hottest part: Miranda having her first queer sex experience with Che in Carrie’s kitchen…as Carrie recovers from surgery.

Girls
A group of girlfriends in New York City go through all the trials and tribulations that come with your 20s, including friendships, relationships, careers, and life transitions.
The hottest part: There are dozens of sex scenes to chose from, but who could forget the one where Desi gets up close and personal with Marnie’s booty? Classic.

Looking, and Looking: The Movie
Basically the male L Word, the series Looking follows the lives (and the sex lives!) of a group of gay men in San Francisco. The 2014 series was beloved by its small-but-mighty fan base during its short two-season run, and in 2016, the creators threw their fans a bone in the form of Looking: The Movie, which many folks feel offered a sense of closure that the series did not. Both the show and the movie are on Max, and full of enough sexy all-male interludes to keep you up alllll night.
The hottest part: Any sex scene between Jonathan Groff and Russell Tovey.

Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!
While there’s plenty of nudity and sex scenes in this wacky dark comedy from 1990, the sexiest thing about it is that it stars a young Antonio Banderas speaking only in Spanish. If you can get past the obvious abuse packaged as quirky romance—a theme in so many films from this era, *sigh*—there are loads of spicy scenes to be appreciated.
The hottest part: Antonio Banderas actually tying up his costar with green rope.

Gia
One of Angelina Jolie’s most classic performances, Gia tells the true story of troubled beauty Gia Carangi, a lesbian from working class Philly and one of the first ever supermodels. Although the film explores the real-life tragedy that she faced (she was a heroin addict and died from AIDS complications at age 26), it also explores her sexuality and sense of self in a manner that’s super raw, super gay, and super, super horny.
The hottest part: Among the many naked moments in this film, the most iconic scene involves Gia and her lover Linda kissing naked through the openings in a chain link fence.

The Piano Teacher
Another brooding European film with heaps of sexuality? Duh! The Piano Teacher is a dark drama from 2001 that explores themes of power, sanity, and BDSM. It’s no Fifty Shades, but it gets the job done.
The hottest part: While there’s not much nudity in the scene when the piano teacher performs oral sex on her student, watching him react to the pleasure is sexy enough.

The Young Pope
This show is unpredictable and wild. Jude Law stars as a rebellious new pope who ushers in an era of chaos for the Catholic church. Expect lots of full frontal nudity and a threesome scene that might just blow you away. God bless.
The hottest part: The MMF threesome in season 1, episode 6.

There Is No “I” In Threesome
It’s no shocker that there’s a lot of horny action packed into a documentary (well, sorta) with a title like this one, but here we are. Released in early 2022, this HBO Original follows a newly engaged couple as they navigate opening up their relationship and eventually trying polyamory. They explore sleeping with and dating new people separately and together, and audiences watch as they cope with new feelings of jealousy and insecurity brought on by their shifting dynamic.
The hottest part: Basically every make-out. And the sex party.

Je Tu Il Elle
This one is for all the Art Hoes™ out there who want to get dirty in black and white and in French. Chantal Akerman’s 1975 film about a woman mourning the end of a relationship culminates with a legendary lesbian sex scene that lasts more than 10 minutes. Je Tu Il Elle is considered one of the most significant films in the lesbian canon because the sex is not at all driven by the male gaze, making it righteous and sexy all at once. What a treat!
The hottest part: The final 10 minutes of the film are pure nudity, sex, and desire.

Desert Hearts
This 1985 film is still celebrated today for its nearly all-woman cast and its rejection of the male gaze. File this one under: longing lesbian looks, sexual tension, and lots of full frontal—all with a heavy dose of real passion. Plus, it’s set against a stunning desert backdrop, which never hurts.
The hottest parts: When Cay and Vivian finally break the tension and hook up, I swear you can see the sparks from space. Super hot.

The Sex Lives of College Girls
Again, this title kinda says it all. Mindy Kaling’s charming series is jam-packed with hormones and lust and tons of deliciously horny scenes. On top of all that, it’s genuinely hilarious. Come for the sex, stay for the heart.
The hottest part: There are sooo many hot moments in this show, like in season 1, episode 4, when Leighton rides her brother’s friend. Or how about the next episode, when Leighton and Alicia finally kiss? But what really takes the cake is season 1, episode 7, during Kimberly and Nico’s sex montage. Doing it on a desk never fails.

Insecure
Created by Issa Rae, Insecure is all about one’s woman life as she navigates her relationships. But with all those relationships obviously comes lots and lots and lots of sex.
The hottest part: Issa and Lawrence’s sex is just *chef’s kiss*. In the first season, after she cheated on him with another man, she goes out with her boyfriend and seduces him–whether out of guilt or as a way to mend their relationship, it’s unknown but it’s still damn hot.

Lovecraft Country
The plot: One woman (played by Jurnee Smollett) travels across the U.S. in an attempt to find her missing father. But pair Jurnee with a sexy lead like Jonathan Majors and you know there’s going to be some fire sex scenes.
The hottest part: I’m partial to the bathroom sex scene in episode 3. Gotta love a nice pick-me-up-and-place-me-on-the-sink quickie in the bathroom.
