Characters that engage in sex acts are often the first to be claimed by the antagonist(s), or will die shortly after their sex scene or (sometimes) in the middle of it. This convention of it being bad luck to have sex in a horror film is notably illustrated in the <i><a href="/wiki/Friday_the_13th_(franchise)" title="Friday the 13th (franchise)">Friday the 13th</a></i> film series, where supernatural villain <a href="/wiki/Jason_Voorhees" title="Jason Voorhees">Jason Voorhees</a> takes a special dislike to teenagers and young adults having sex because, as a young boy, he drowned in a lake while the camp counselors who should have been supervising him were having sex. </p><p>In some interpretations of this "rule", the sex acts themselves directly cause the character's demise. In <i><a href="/wiki/Cabin_Fever_(2002_film)" title="Cabin Fever (2002 film)">Cabin Fever</a></i>, a man catches the deadly illness because a woman who was infected (but not yet symptomatic) seduces and has impulsive sex with him. They do not use a <a href="/wiki/Condom" title="Condom">condom</a> because the careless woman believes she is healthy. Ironically, the woman (and the audience) only realize that she is infected because of red welts that are brought out by their rough lovemaking. <i><a href="/wiki/Species_(film)" title="Species (film)">Species</a></i> (1995) and its sequels also feature many sexual deaths as virtually every human who mates with an alien in the franchise subsequently dies – female aliens kill human suitors regardless of whether they have poor genes, resist the alien's advances, or mate successfully. Human women who mate with alien men die shortly after sex as their abdomens burst during the unnaturally rapid pregnancy that always follows. </p><p>Most times in horror movies the <a href="/wiki/Final_girl" title="Final girl">typical survivor</a> is a young girl who is still a virgin. In the film <i><a href="/wiki/Scream_(1996_film)" title="Scream (1996 film)">Scream</a></i>, which satirizes horror movies, this rule is somewhat broken as the character <a href="/wiki/List_of_Scream_(film_series)_characters" title="List of Scream (film series) characters">Randy Meeks</a> points out that one of the rules of horrors is to not have sex. In an intersecting scene, the film's main <a href="/wiki/Protagonist" title="Protagonist">protagonist</a> <a href="/wiki/Sidney_Prescott" title="Sidney Prescott">Sidney Prescott</a> loses her virginity to Billy Loomis. After they finish, Billy is stabbed by <a href="/wiki/Ghostface_(Scream)" title="Ghostface (Scream)">Ghostface</a> and Sidney is then chased. Randy himself survives a gunshot wound at the end of the film because, as he explains, he is a virgin. However, he dies in the sequel, <i><a href="/wiki/Scream_2" title="Scream 2">Scream 2</a></i>, after which it is revealed that he lost his virginity sometime prior to his death. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Mexico">Mexico</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Sex_in_film&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Mexico"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In Mexico, many comedy films are based on sex, typically portraying men as unstoppable sex-seeking creatures and women as willing targets.

There have been various films which have been made which mainly focus on exploring the relationship between women. Because of the limited films featuring same-sex sex scenes before 2010s, researchers were unable to research people's views on the intimate scenes between women. In 2016, researchers Maria T. Soto-Sanfiel and Adriana Ibiti created a report on pleasurable sensations created by watching sexual scenes between women.

The film is about a high school student Adele who lusts after art student Lea and falls in love with her. The film explores the lesbian relationship between them and their transformation as characters. To showcase their developing characters, the three-hour long film contained almost ten minutes of sexual scenes between them. These scenes were so long that even heterosexual scenes in movies have not exceeded the length.
