Best BDSM Movies 2024

50 Shades of Grey on tv screen

Are you looking for some sexy BDSM movies to get you in the mood?

Watching movies is a great way to have a sexy time alone, with someone else, or to learn something new.

After all, who hasn’t ever done any Netflix & Chill?…

There are plenty of great films on the topic so without further ado, here are the best BDSM movies in 2024!

Secretary

One of the most popular BDSM movies and arguably one of the best, Secretary was the first major Hollywood production that explicitly put BDSM as the main topic.

It tells the story of a young woman fighting with depression and her judgemental family when she takes up a new job as a secretary for an eccentric lawyer.

Soon she finds out that he is a Dom with very sadistic tendencies and they start a Ds-relationship…

Secretary is one of our favorite BDSM movies as it doesn’t put up a stereotypical image of dominance and submission, and instead also looks into the psychology behind it. It also gets by almost without any shock or explicit scenes.

A must-watch for everyone interested in BDSM and an all-time classic!

50 shades of Grey

50 Shades of Grey was a global phenomenon that suddenly turned millions of people to look more into BDSM, despite most “actual” BDSM folks despising it.

Based on the book with the same name, it tells the story of billionaire Christian Grey, and young graduate Anastasia Steele who begin a Ds-relationship and live out sadomasochistic activities…or don’t they?

The movie was ripped apart by both film critics and people in the BDSM community, however, it grossed more than $500million worldwide…not too bad.

Watch it for entertainment, and for some sexy scenes, however, do NOT take it as advice on how to actually do consensual BDSM!

Story of O

The Story of O follows a beautiful young French woman, known only as “O” who is initiated by her lover into a secret society where she must serve the sexual fantasies of all its members.

Despite being from 1975, this BDSM movie is one of the more explicit ones and it can sometimes be hard to find it online.

It depicts a niche side of BDSM, so-called O-circles which also go deeper into wife sharing, sex slaves, and more extreme group practices.

The Story of O is not for everyone, however, it is still one of the classic BDSM movies everyone should watch at least once in their life.

There are several movie excerpts online, so here is one of the better ones:

The Story of Joanna

Watch some good BDSM movies to get into the mood!

The Story of Joanna from 1975 is essentially a near-pornographic adaption of the famous Story of O from the same year.

The sex scenes in this one are very explicit and this is more than just “pretend”.

However, if you are looking for some spicy inspiration and an absolutely legendary hardcore scene between the two main actors, check it out!

Sorry, no trailer for this one!

The Artist and the Pervert

The Artist and the Pervert is a documentary showing the life of Georg Friedrich Haas and his wife Mollena Williams-Haas. He is an Austrian star composer from a Nazi family while she is descended from slaves a former “International Ms. Leather”.

They live in a 24/7 Ds-relationship as master and slave. Of course, due to their unique cultural backgrounds and dynamics, there is a lot to talk about.

Yes, it is a film about BDSM, however, it is ultimately a movie about finding yourself and living the way you choose to. No matter what societal norms or anyone else might tell you.

Super interesting, and very eye-opening!

Belle de Jour

Belle de Jour is another movie adaption of an infamous early 20th-century novel and depicts a young woman who spends her afternoons as a high-class prostitute, while her husband is at work.

It received many praises, including the Golden Lion in Venice and a BAFTA award nomination.

With such an elaborate topic, you can be sure to see a lot of S&M play, bondage, infidelity, and sex.

It shows the sometimes fine line between fantasies and overstepping boundaries and is great to watch as a couple!

Nymphomaniac 1 & 2

Nymphomaniac is another raunchy movie dealing with sex, BDSM, infidelity, and explicit erotic fantasies.

It follows a young self-diagnosed sex addict who tells her story and escapades to a bachelor in order to recover from an assault.

Over the two films, you get to watch a number of highly explicit sex scenes, dive deep into the adventures of the main protagonist and see how this can sometimes end in the wrong way.

BDSM is not the core topic, but especially sadomasochism, spanking, and whipping are featured prominentely.

The Fetish Club – Preaching to the Perverted

Want to get into the mood and still have a good laugh?

Then The Fetish Club is just what you’re looking for.

This pitch-black Brit Comedy is funny, sexy, looks into the world of wild fetish parties and a poor undercover agent trying to undermine their operations…and gets caught between his duty and his desires.

It’s a mix between satire, comedy, and light thriller that has an irresistible 90s vibe to it!

Oh, and the soundtrack is awesome!

9 1/2 weeks

Unlike other movies, 9 1/2 weeks with the fabulous Mikey Rourke and Kim Basinger was never officially declared a “BDSM movie”. It is, however, one of the more controversial Hollywood productions out there for some very explicit sex scenes and the overall tone.

What’s nice here is that the BDSM elements aren’t so much “in your face” and don’t turn into unrealistic fantasies.

Instead, the movie shows the affair between a dominant man and a self-confident woman in which the latter is not a “broken” or frightened little thing, but communicates openly and sets boundaries.

Want to get into the mood with good acting and some sexy inspiration? Watch this one tonight!

Just make sure that it is the uncut version!

Where to watch BDSM movies

The best platform for watching movies about BDSM are Amazon Prime, Netflix, and good old Youtube.

I personally always check Youtube first before the other options because it’s free (I like that). However, Amazon Prime is great for movies (especially the older ones) while Netflix takes the spot for the best selection of tv series!
