These are movies where sex and violence are intrinsically linked - and usually starring Michael Douglas or Richard Gere.
In erotic thrillers, sex and violence are intrinsically linked. Characters (often played by Michael Douglas and Richard Gere) are punished with violence or death when they succumb to lust. Women are usually seductive and deadly, while men are crazy people who only want one thing.
