A Hulu subscription lets you stream buzzy shows like The Bear and Abbott Elementary and reality TV brain candy like The Kardashians and Dance Moms, sure. But there’s also a veritable treasure trove of sexy movies on Hulu for your viewing pleasure—emphasis, of course, on the pleasure. The question is: Which film (or films, if you’re looking to host a smutty little watch-athon) should you choose when the night is young and you’re feeling a little freaky? When you want something that will invoke a certain mood, scratch a proverbial itch, and get you a bit hot and bothered from the comfort of your couch?
The number of steamy movies on Hulu is overwhelming, and we all know the feeling of scrolling through countless titles until your mind goes blank and you give up and play Brooklyn Nine-Nine for the 800th time or waffle between various Richard Gere movies until you fall asleep with your laptop in your bed. Who needs that kind of sexual frustration? You certainly don’t, which is why we’ve rounded up a balanced selection of hot flicks that are well worth checking out. (You can also browse our list of sexy movies on Netflix for even more spicy entertainment options.)
Some of our picks offer explicit moments; others leave plenty up to the imagination. Are you a sucker for romantic comedies? Get an eyeful of young Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway in the achingly bittersweet Love and Other Drugs. If thrillers are more your thing, consider Deep Water—a sizzling film with sex scenes heightened by suspenseful stakes. Looking for something a little kinkier and think-ier? Grab some popcorn and behold the art-house smolder of Sanctuary and Benedetta. Perhaps best of all, Hulu is home to lower-profile features that audiences might otherwise miss, including a host of LGTBQ+-focused offerings like Disobedience, Fire Island, and Portrait of a Lady on Fire.
So get ready to fire up the TV (or your laptop) and settle in for a titillating evening at home—alone or with a partner. Ahead, you’ll find 17 super sexy movies you can enjoy on Hulu right now.
