Popcorn, Please: Vol 7

· By Team PLEASE

The 7th instalment of ‘Popcorn, please.’ will be taking place on the eve of Halloween - Wednesday 30th October - hosted in The Pink Room at The Gorgeous George of course.

And since it is the spookiest time, we thought, why not share some of our favourite and sexiest horror films.

We’re sharing our top films that we think artfully intertwine fear and desire, transforming conventional horror narratives into stories that pulse with eroticism. From seductive vampires to paranormal romances, these films explore the darker side of passion, showcasing characters that blur the lines between lust and terror.

From Dusk 'Til Dawn (1996)

Brothers Seth (George Clooney) and Richard (Quentin Tarantino) are on the run after killing police officers. They take a family hostage to escape to a strip club in Mexico, only to discover it’s run by vampires. Co-starring Salma Hayek, this film is a wild blend of action, horror, and seduction.


Jennifer's Body (2009)

Megan Fox shines in this horror-comedy penned by Diablo Cody. After a demon possesses her, Jennifer develops an insatiable thirst for killing her male classmates after seducing them. A sexy cult classic, it’s a darkly humorous take on friendship and desire. 

 

American Psycho (2000)

Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) is a self obsessed successful investment banker with a penchant for murder. His exceeding charm nets him plenty of women, many of whom he kills for sport. An iconic horror movie filled with unforgettable scenes, strange fantasies, and some seriously dark humour.


Cam (2018)

This psychological horror film, inspired by writer Isa Mazzei's experiences as a camgirl, dives into themes of identity and desire. When a woman's online persona is stolen, she must confront the chilling implications of her digital life.


Mulholland Drive (2001)

In her breakout role, Naomi Watts stars as Betty, a woman trying to make it in Hollywood, who ends up helping a woman suffering from amnesia. Together, the pair tries to discover what happened to the mysterious woman and who she really is, while developing an incredibly close relationship with one another.

We hope you enjoyed this list, hopefully we’ve given you some ideas of what to watch if you’re in the mood for something scary and sexy and we hope to see you at ‘Popcorn, please.’!
