Sliver
Based on the Ira Levin novel of the same name, this erotic thriller revolves around a successful young editor (played by Sharon Stone) who moves into a new building and meets a sexy neighbor (played by Billy Baldwin), only to learn that he isn’t quite as nice and innocent as he seems.

Get ready to swoon (and probably get more than a little turned on).
Sin City
This highly stylized crime thriller – which is based on Frank Miller’s graphic novel of the same name – is definitely violent, but it also boasts an incredibly stacked (and incredibly attractive) cast that includes Jessica Alba, Bruce Willis, Rosario Dawson, Clive Owen, Benicio del Toro, and more, so how could you resist?
After
Based on Anna Todd’s bestselling novel of the same name, After is basically Fifty Shades of Grey set at a college, telling the story of bad boy Hardin Scott, who pursues – and eventually falls in love with – innocent college student Tessa Young.
