"Erotic Drama" Movies

← See all keywords

Movies that have heavy erotic elements, but lack the romance of Romantic Dramas or the thriller elements of Erotic Thrillers. This subgenre reached its peak in the 1970s during the time when pornography first became more mainstream, but before the home market made watching similar movies at home a lot more popular than seeing them in theatres.
