10 (5) Hilarious Movie Sex Scenes

This weekend, moviegoers will be treated (?) to the sight of Jason Segel and Cameron Diaz repeatedly getting it on during Sex Tape, as their characters attempt to recreate every single position from The Joy of Sex and spice up their marriage in the process. Expect lots of big laughs and raunchy sight gags… though one thing audiences shouldn't be hoping for is something they haven’t seen before. After all, the beast with two backs is hardly an endangered species in Hollywood, and there are always plenty of steamy sex scenes heating up multiplexes. What’s a little bit less common, however, are scenes that play getting down and dirty for laughs, intentionally or otherwise.

But in honor of Sex Tape, our brave writers have looked back at cinema to find some of the funniest instances of stars bumping ugliest on screen. Though we feel that it would be unfair and just too damn hard to pit the scenes that you’ll read about below against one another to determine the all-time funniest scene, you can read on to find ten of the most hilarious cinematic rolls in the hay.



While horror movies are typically known for gory, bloody sex scenes where victims see their invigorating bone-sesh cut short, darkly comedic slasher flicks know how to inject a little humor in their death scenes as well – especially when sex is involved. Trust me, I've seen my fair share of hilarious mid-sex death, but if you want the granddaddy of all horror sex scenes, look no further than one of my favorite 90's horror movies, Bride Of Chucky.

Starting out with a splash, Tiffany notices a conning couple getting freaky on a sleazy hotel waterbed with a mirror positioned strategically above. Channeling her inner Martha Stewart, Tiff gets creative and hurls a bottle of champagne into the mirror, creating a steady rain of mirror shards that slice through the couple and waterbed at once – creating a gushing wave of bloody, sweaty, stinky water.

It’s here where the comedy comes in, as Chucky proclaims his love for Tiff. After proposing with a left-behind ring, the two decide to consummate their love with a little doll on doll action, complete with plenty of cheeky puns. “I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling a little bit like Pinocchio here,” Chucky jests, and then he starts sensually stripping Tiff’s clothes off before she asks, “Wait, have you got a rubber?”

“Have I got a rubber? Tiff! Look at me! I’m all rubber!”

This is one of THE iconic Chucky moments in the entire Child’s Play franchise, and one of the prime examples of how Don Mancini revamped his legendary slasher icon with a fresh new style. Finish the whole ordeal off with Bard Dourif and Jennifer Tilly bringing life to their murderous characters in their most intimate moment, and you've sealed the deal on my favorite scene Bride Of Chucky has to offer.




Of all their scenes together, none are more hilarious than that which shows Otto follow through to completion. Knowing just how to make Wanda swoon, Otto halts his amateur ninja work-out, and begins to recite random Italian words – each of which causes Wanda to gradually disrobe. Yanking her knee-high boot from her foot, Otto stands proudly above her – inhaling from it deeply, then re-inflating it – giving him the appearance of a triumphant elephant. Continuing his seduction with a recitation of Mussolini’s name through her removed stocking, Otto dives upon Wanda – bursting into a chorus of Volare, before reaching a silent, cross-eyed climax.

This scene belongs to Kevin Kline, who justly received the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his performance. Filling him with ignorance and arrogance, he parades through the scene like a preening peacock – utterly convinced of his own sexual prowess. He continues his well-practiced mating ritual, right up until the point of orgasm – his orgasm. Because for all his energetic displays of virility, the audience can almost feel Wanda’s disappointment through the screen. And that’s hilarious.




“Oh, I’m storming your castle on my steed, milady.” “Oh, mi corazón, es en fuego! Julio, fuego, fuego, fuego!” And with that awkward exchange between dashing, mustachioed anchorman Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and beautiful, ambitious newswoman Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate) after their very funny, jazz flute-heavy first date, one of the greatest and strangest sex scenes ever committed to celluloid was born. Just how strange is it?

Well, after Veronica’s venture in Spanish seduction (which the multilingual Baxter seems more receptive to than Ron), Ron and Veronica literally go to Pleasure Town in one of the trippiest animated sequences outside of a Golden Age Disney flick. They find themselves riding unicorns together into the gates of Pleasure Town, which contains “the most glorious rainbow ever” in addition to a host of cuddly/creepy pandas, squirrels and dancing trees. As they gallop and frolic around, what’s happening outside of Pleasure Town is left completely to the imagination – but it sounds ridiculous. And it’s set to “Help Yourself” by Tom Jones… so there’s that.




The hottest girl in school is coming over to get your help studying, her grasp of the English language isn't that great, and for some inexplicable reason she seems to be into you at least half as much as you’re into her. So what do you do? Set up a webcam, excuse yourself from the room while she changes, and then record the titillation for you and your buds. But in American Pie, that’s just the beginning of the story.

Considering that at this part of the film, our hero Jim (Jason Biggs) had already been caught using a freshly-baked apple pie as a sex toy, it should come as no surprise that his attempted seduction of his gorgeous Slovakian classmate Nadia (Shannon Elizabeth) did not go off without a hitch. First of all kids, back in 1999, hooking up a webcam and sending the feed to your friend’s computer required some effort. Skype was still a gleam in some programmer’s eye at that point, and mistakes were plentiful. Secondly, don’t leave your porn magazines lying around when you have a girl coming over. Unless it turns out she’s into it, and starts to, ahem, take matters into her own hands. At this point, luckily for Jim, it’s fish in a barrel time.

Unfortunately for Jim, this being his first time and all, he can’t, um, meet the minimal mechanical requirements. Let’s just say the equipment failed before it ever got a chance to be used in the field. Twice. It’s bad enough that you literally get this close to bedding your high school crush, but for things to go down the way they did… Well, let’s just say that the ’90s teen film Jim should have been a character is Can’t Hardly Wait. Twice. Good thing, then, that the whole experience was broadcast to the entire school via the webcam and the accidental connection sent to every student at East Great Falls High School who got to see that Jim can’t, uh, hold up his end.

The reason the the Biggs/Elizabeth non-tryst in American Pie is one of the funniest cinematic sex scenes is because it’s not technically a sex scene. There’s also a reality to it, because everyone can relate to the fact that the first time doesn’t go as planned. There’s always a collision of expectation and actuality that sometimes results in one or both of the partners getting short-changed. In Jim’s case, it’s just too bad he underestimated his own potency, while Nadia over-estimated it. Twice. By comparison, being used by the band chick, who slapped him in bed and screamed “Say my name, bitch!” was a definite step up.


Those familiar with Tommy Wiseau’s cult monstrosity/masterpiece are doubtless well versed in the film’s multiple scenes of painfully soundtracked, unfortunately hilarious and anatomically incompetent attempts at on-screen intercourse. Just when you've recovered from the horror of witnessing Wiseau’s naked derriere grinding against an unfortunate actress’ belly button, the whole thing happens again – but this time even longer and spliced in with shots of the first one, just in case you forgot.

Let’s not forget the equally infamous scene of staircase-set boinking with Greg “Jesus Beard” Sestero overdubbing his moans in the least convincing and most half-hearted way possible, while somehow engaging in carnal expulsion with his jeans zipped up. Wiseau’s phenomenal failure to understand the technicalities of intercourse only serves to reinforce the already pretty concrete claim that he’s an alien with little to no understanding of basic human interaction.

If you see a more awkward pair of on-screen performances than Sestero and Juliette Danielle in the aforementioned escalatory “rapture,” I’ll buy you a dozen red roses and poorly ordered pizza. If you pay enough attention, you can even pin-point the exact moment when they simultaneously realize their respective careers are over: Sestero would go on to tour The Room around the world because no proper project would ever be willing to take him on again, Danielle would become synonymous with having her leg dry-humped by a non-specific Eastern-European guy.

Each of the multiple carnal scenes remain utterly hilarious, a little creepy and cover-your-eyes awkward all at the same time. If nothing else, the sight of Tommy Wiseau’s bizarre, not-quite-human not-quite-Nosferatu backside is a more effective contraceptive than every condom on the planet put together.




Rest at source.
