elcome to MovieGoods' selection of the “Top 100 Sexiest Movie Posters" EVER!
Deciding on what is sexy as a movie poster image or design is very subjective. Thankfully all of us have our own interpretation of what we find sexually appealing. A favorite old idiom suggests that “Variety is the Spice of Life”. In our efforts to compile our final list we included both a little variety and a little spice.
We looked at thousands of movie posters to find the ones you are seeing on the "Top 100". The variety comes in the form of posters that are drawn from various countries over the years. You will also see variety in the form of posters that represent films from the 1920’s to today.
The spice is embodied in the inescapable selection of posters for films that starred some of cinema’s most beautiful and sexy stars in spicy outfits or layouts. When compiling a list like ours you must include classic screen goddesses like Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Rita Hayworth and Ava Gardner. We also showcase some contemporary stars like Angelina Jolie and Monica Bellucci.
The Oxford Dictionary describes “sexy” as follows;
Concerned predominantly or excessively with sex; risqué.
Sexually interesting or exciting; radiating sexuality.
Excitingly appealing; glamorous.
We would like to think our list and movie poster choices embody all those dictionary definitions. You be the judge. Enjoy.

Tag line for the film says "See a female colossus...Her mountainous torso, skyscraper limbs, giant desires! Sounds like our kind of girl! Iconic imagery does not adequately describe.
Tinto Brass film that says forget all ism's and just look at that a**!

Die Sünderin
Germany
1951
Awesome image of Hildegard Knef from the 1951 German film "The Sinner". The film caused quite a furor in the early 50's for it's very tame (by our standards) nude scene.
Mae West - Gives a "hot time" to the nation! All woman right here!

The Marriage of Maria Braun

Fassbinder liked to use women in garters in his poster images - See "Lola"

"Baby-Faced Savage" Hardly, Joan Fontaine looking very provocative on this movie poster!

Aimée & Jaguar
United States
1999
Design harkens back to the dime store novel covers for that "different kind of love".
49
Pandora and the Flying Dutchmen
United States
1951
Ahh...Ava again in all her glory. Arguably some of the best movie poster art can be found on Belgian posters. This design has James Mason off center staring at...Well, you figure it out!
"She's Number One with a Bullet" Bad guys worst nightmare, a vengeful garter-clad girl with a gun.
47
Contempt
United States

"Bardot at her bold, bare and brazen best!" in the Godard classic. She exudes sexy in this movie poster.

Don't Bother to Knock
United States

Marilyn striking the obligatory "hands behind the head" pose looks too sexy. Great image!

Galaxina
United States
1980
Fantasy meets sexuality. Artwork by Robert Tanenbaum gives us a view from the back of the scantily clad heroine. She also has a much cooler ray gun than the one in the Barbarella movie poster.
