When you hear that a movie is X-rated, you probably have some porny expectations. Maybe you think about Deep Throat and other 70s porn films that went mainstream. However, a lot of surprising critically acclaimed movies had X-ratings.Between 1968-1990, the Motion Picture Association of America doled out X-ratings to movies with explicit nudity, sex, violence, and even revolutionary ideas. The MPAA developed the NC-17 rating in the 90s (one of the films that inspired that change is in this list), so the X-rating's legacy has lingered on in the porn world ever since.
Here are X-rated movies that are actually very good. You might be surprised to hear that some of these movies are X-rated and why, but here are seriously hot movies that are very XXX.
