The 15 Best NC-17 Movies Ever Released, Ranked by Collider

"Most film directors try to avoid the dreaded NC-17 rating like the plague. It has long been considered the kiss of death, deterring audiences and stirring up negative connotations. The NC-17 rating replaced the equally bad 'X-rating' in 1990 and has been a point of controversy for general movie-goers ever since. To many cinephiles, though, the NC-17 rating is a point of interest and even a badge of honor. It's incredibly rare for mainstream movies to get slapped with the rating, so when movies do, it generates quite a bit of curiosity around them. Regardless of the label, American culture is still obsessed with the forbidden, the sexual, and the shocking, and NC-17 movies will always hold an important place in the film world with some incredible stories." - collider.com
