Best Psychosexual Movies of All Time
Movies with Psychosexual plot in any form (drama, crime, fiction, science fiction and fantasy, comedy, mystery, horror, thriller e.t.c.)

Definition: A psychosexual film relating to the mental aspects of sex, such as sexual fantasies or having to do with the psychological aspects of sexuality in contrast to the physical aspects. They go beyond the typical boy-meets-girl trope and delve into deep-seated, complex, Freudian narratives of sexual identity and sexual drive theory. Romance is often used to sublimate many of these desires but it is the advent of the psychosexual thriller that makes explore how repressed desires can soon turn into the depths of sexual depravity and other nightmares (mental ailments such as neurosis, hysteria, female hysteria, or personality disorder, identity conflicts etc).

Characteristics: sexual fantasies, sexual obsessions, Femme Fatale archetype (seductive woman / high self-esteem -vs- submissive woman / low self-esteem), sexual manipulation, domination, voyeurism, sadomasochistic affairs, sexual dysfunctions, paraphilia, oedipus complex, electra complex, penis envy, castration anxiety and gender identity disorders.

Movies, TV shows and episode written by Michael Crichton (1942-2007) or adapted from his work.

Short films and derivative works based only on characters or locations created by Crichton (e.g. 'Jurassic World' or the 'Westworld' show) are not part of this list.

For good measure I also included the movie "Physical Evidence" that Crichton did not write but direct.

The individuals may not be presented in a positive light and the relationship between the individuals involved may have a bad effect on them, but the sex scene must be presented in an erotic manner.

There may be other sex scenes that are not erotic. Generally sexual farces and horror films are not included.
