When it's hot and sultry and you are feeling restless - 


Dead Calm 

Nicole Kidman and Sam Neill as a couple going through a tragedy miscarriage and deciding to take their sailboat way out on the ocean and heal. The only problem is a survivor a boat dead in the water who needs help, but whose story doesn't add up. If you love sailing and the idea of being out at sea, this is the one. It's also very tense. 


The Legend of Billie Jean 

Helen Slater and Christian Slater in a classic 80s flick from Corpus Christi, Texas as a couple of siblings wronged by the law and on the run. Great soundtrack. This is 80s fun at its best! 


Cape Fear 

The Jessica Lange and Nick Nolte modern version of this film is seriously hot, sexy, and tense. A lawyer is stalked by a criminal released for his crime who wants to be sure his lawyer who let him take the hit gets his own justice. I hate to promote a Robert De Niro film, but accidentally he's in this one. This is a southern slow and sultry vibe with a lot of violence, so be prepared for the contrasts. 


Romancing the Stone 

Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner in a sultry Central American film about a timid romance writer and a jungle rebel who unite to save her sister from kidnappers and recover a giant emerald. A classic love story in a sultry jungle with lots of adventure.


Body Heat

William Hurt. Kathleen Turner. Richard Crenna. Mickey Rourke. A passionate affair with a wealthy wife has her lover plotting how to kill the husband. Considered one of the best sultry flicks.


Lady Chatterly's Lover

A wealthy woman's husband becomes paralyzed and she must take a lover. Beautiful setting and period wardrobe. 


Blue Lagoon 

Brooke Shields. Christopher Atkins. A ship sinks and two 7-year-old cousins survive with a passenger. The passenger parents him until he dies. Then, the two budding young adults start having desires. If you wanted to be crashed on a desert island, this is it. 


Private Lessons II: Another Story

A professional photographer heads to Miami for a sexy photo shoot and escapes her cheating husband. She takes up with a handsome chauffer. This one really captures the Miami vibe and a good soundtrack. Highly recommend. 


Summer Lovers

Daryl Hannah. Peter Gallagher. A young couple heads to Greece for the summer and in the sexy setting decide to bring a third into their relationship. This one for the setting alone is super sexy. 


Dirty Dancing

A young woman on a boring family vacation to the Catskills develops confidence with a male dancer. The music in this is nice. 


Adore

Robin Wright. Naomi Watts. Australia. Two wives who grew up togethet on the beach and never leave each other's sides begin to notice their sons are very attractive. Each of them has an affair with the other's son. The setting for this is paradise. Love the vibe. Very sexy. 


Wild Things 

Matt Dillon. Kevin Bacon. Neve Campbell. Denise Richards. A high school girl enters a complicated plan to get her mom's money. This is seriously Florida in a hot sultry summer sexy. 


Sirens

Hugh Grant. Sam Neill. Elle MacPherson. A minister and his wife are sent from England to direct a heretic artist from making profanity. The setting sets the uptight wife afire. This is a lovely Australian film and takes you to a magical time and place. Love it! 


Walking on Sunshine

This delightful musical with an amazing 80s soundtrack takes place in Italy. Two sisters, one man. It's my very favorite musical of recent years. Amazing setting and you feel like you just traveled to Puglia.
