Sexual Response (1992) likely refers to a film that might have had a slightly higher budget or more mainstream aspirations, possibly positioning itself as an erotic thriller, a genre popular in the early 90s following hits like Basic Instinct. While potentially containing explicit content, the narrative might also incorporate elements of suspense, psychological drama, or mystery centered around sexual relationships and their consequences. The plot could involve themes of therapy, scientific study of sex, or simply the emotional and physical reactions characters have to intense sexual situations. The title Sexual Response suggests a focus on the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of arousal and intimacy, possibly exploring the psychological dimensions alongside the physical. Key performers like Shannon Tweed were sometimes associated with this erotic thriller subgenre. This film likely aimed to blend plot-driven elements with steamy or explicit scenes, appealing to an audience seeking more than just straightforward adult fare.
