This is Bob. Bob had bitch tits.

While most Hollywood actors and actresses are attractive, there are times where the fan service gets unattractive.

No Pornography examples, please, as per wiki rules.

  • 8mm has a decent amount of nudity, even including an instance of a fully naked man seen from the front, but given it's all presented in the context of a snuff film investigation, the effect just ends up being more disgusting and disturbing than sexy.
  • 28 Days Later:
    • It has a prime example of pseudo-romantic Fan Disservice. As a Zombie Apocalypse film (well, Rage Virus Apocalypse film), there's plenty of violence and non-erotic zombie nudity, but some very sweet moments between the leading male and leading female. At the end of the film, the two share in a passionate, chick flick style hands-on-face kiss, after a badass rescue sequence. There's even a moment of brief comic relief afterwards. What's wrong? Well, this is right after Jim beat the head of Selena's would-be soldier rapist repeatedly and violently against the wall and proceeding in gouging his eyes out with his thumbs. Literally, seconds after. He and Selena are both covered in the blood of their captors, Jim, in particular, has it all over his face and mouth — and visibly all over his thumbs, up to the last joint and under the nails. According to Danny Boyle, while shooting the scene, he repeatedly told Cillian Murphy to keep his hands out of the shot for this very reason. Some good that did...
    • Let's not forget we eventually do see Selena in nothing but her panties and brassiere, after she was forcefully stripped of her clothes and in the midst of preparation for being gang-raped by an entire squad of soldiers, who are currently busy trying to put her into a pretty dress. And right next to her is a traumatised 14-year-old girl, who is going to be raped, too.
    • And you would rather like to never see that old, obese and completely naked infected woman running straight toward West, because this is the type of breast bouncing that's hard to remove from your mind. In fact, she was so iconic as disservice, a very similar zombie was introduced as a quasi-homage and a minor Chekhov's Gun in Dawn of the Dead (2004).
  • 300 is fairly famous for the prominent beefcake, but even then it has many unsexy moments:
    • The Oracle is quite the head-turner and she is used as a Sex Slave to a bunch of disgusting, rotten, degenerated old men. It's said that only the most beautiful Spartan girls are picked to be their Oracle.
    • Xerxes's orgy scene contains a lot of sexual and disturbing imagery, such as amputee participants, scarred and disfigured women and even a freakin' goat man.
  • In Absolutely Anything, while getting used to his powers, Neil asks for "a really great body" and ends up with a sexy naked woman's body... with Simon Pegg's head.
  • The Abyss has a brief flash of Lindsey's breasts in one scene, but seeing as this is because she's nearly drowned and the other members of the cast are about to apply CPR, it's doubtful many fans were aroused. (Still, the scene does take the standard Clean Pretty Reliable approach to it, so it could have looked far worse.)
  • Act of Vengeance: Several of the female characters are shown topless early on. However, as it's due to having their clothes ripped off by a masked man who then rapes them, it's more disturbing rather than titillating.
  • The independent film Allure has Evan Rachel Wood having sex with both men and women...too bad her character’s a domestic abuser who does this mainly to her female partner who is a teenager and that she spends a lot of those scenes trying to strangle her partners. The fact that Wood is a survivor of psychological and sexual abuse herself and may have used her experience as a reference destroys any possible erotism.
    • The already disturbing scenes where Dolores Abernathy is assaulted off-screen by the Man in Black in Westworld become this even more so in light of this, with Wood herself confirming it was extremely difficult for her to film those scenes.
    • This also makes her music videos with Marilyn Manson borderline horrifying because while she didn’t directly name him, more than a few people guessed it was him due to the timeline of their relationship.
  • In Alps, one of Monte Rosa's clients, a grieving control-freak widower, offers to pay her extra if she'll have sex with him while he continues to give her a script. Any arousal the scene might cause is quickly squashed by how obvious it is that neither of them is really into it.
  • There's a scene in American History X and the Prison Rape is itself Fan Disservice. Actually, Ed Norton spends quite a bit of American History X naked or partly clothed, and given the kind of shape he got himself into for the role it'd be rather nice... except for the huge swastika on his left pec.
  • In the Russian film adaptation of And Then There Were None, a bareback shot of a pretty female about to have sex would normally be hot under any other circumstances... except here, you get a bareback shot of Vera Claythorne just as she is about to get raped. Later, you see Vera and Lombard sitting up in bed, having just woken up, him shirtless, her Godiva Hair barely covering up her breasts. It gives the scene a somewhat disturbing context.
  • Angel Heart was notorious for Lisa Bonét's nude scene. The aforementioned nude scene was accompanied by bordering-on-violent rough sex, Mickey Rourke at his greasy sleaziest, and blood streaming down the walls halfway through. Not to mention the later revelation that she's his daughter.
  • Anon (2018): A lesbian couple are shown making out, with one topless, but the sexiness immediately turns into horror as they are both shot dead by an unseen killer.
  • A recurring element in Darren Aronofsky films:
    • Requiem for a Dream: The ass-to-ass scene in Marion's portion of the climax of the film graphically illustrates the abuse she is willing to endure for a bag of cocaine. Elegantly summed up by The AV Club: "Jennifer Connelly is reduced to performing a sex show with another woman in front of a leering crowd of horny businessmen. This is nowhere near as hot as it sounds."
    • Black Swan: Natalie Portman gets a lot of what should be fan-servicey shots, if not for the fact she looks almost corpse-like. There's also a lesbian sex scene between Portman and Mila Kunis that comes across this way to some. Particularly with the revelation that Nina's imagining having sex with herself and she's seen with a rather demonic look on her face.
    • mother! (2017): Jennifer Lawrence's breasts are briefly visible - in a scene where her character is attacked by a mob and they try to rip off her clothes. There's nothing sexy about it.
  • The Art of the Steal has the aging, overweight Uncle Paddy (played by Kenneth Welsh) in a Spy Catsuit in what turns a (fortunately) short-lived Imagine Spot.
  • The Assignment (2016): Michelle Rodriguez as Frank shows full frontal nudity. However, as it's after he had been heavily bandaged and underwent extensive surgery, along with them being entirely unwilling medical procedures which freak him out, this is far less sexy than might be the case otherwise.
  • The horror film Asylum at one point features the main protagonist, Madison, having a Shower Scene. However, after only a few moments she begins suffering a vivid hallucination of drowning as the shower stall overflows and fills to the top, with her trapped inside it.
  • The opening scene of Attenberg, featuring two girls making out... except they have their hands straight at their sides, their mouths are way too open, and it looks like they're jousting with their tongues more than anything.
  • Back to the Future:
    • Lorraine in 1955 hitting on an underwear-clad Marty in the original film would be a lot cuter given that they're roughly the same age, but remember that Lorraine is Marty's mother. Marty is aware of this, but Lorraine, who wouldn't be giving birth to Marty for another decade and a half in 1955, isn't.
    • In the same film, while Lorraine is wearing her dance dress, there's a lovely view of her petticoat...while she's being assaulted by Biff, the local bully and the Big Bad of the series.
    • In Part II's alternate 1985, Lorraine wears a low-neckline dress and has breast implants...both of which were forced upon her by Biff, who in this timeline is her abusive husband.
  • Bad Reputation's rape scene is filmed with the camera mostly focusing on the rapists.
  • Beau Is Afraid: Beau's childhood crush Elaine dies while climaxing on top of Beau and we see her stiff body with a mid-orgasm expression on her face.
  • Below Her Mouth has a lot of Fanservice sex scenes between Jasmine and Dallas, and two scenes that are less so for dramatic reasons, since they occur after their affair is discovered: Jasmine and her fiancee Rile start to have foreplay that abruptly stops when Rile realizes she's crying. Meanwhile Dallas tries to get her mind off things by visiting an erotic dancer friend at her place of work and gets a complimentary private show - the camera focuses more on Dallas' clearly still unhappy expression than the dancing, and it's quickly interrupted by an angry club owner who kicks Dallas out for not being a paying customer.
  • Before the Devil Knows You're Dead: The opening shot is Philip Seymour Hoffman completely naked and bent over, it is so distracting you almost don't notice equally completely naked Marisa Tomei underneath him.
  • Beyond Re-Animator: Laura and Vanessa are topless for separate scenes in the film. However, many of these are with Laura as a zombie attacking people, or for Vanessa, being assaulted by one.
  • Not even "wholesome" family films are immune. Big has an uncomfortable scene early on in which Tom Hanks pulls down his pants to reveal to his mother that he's a boy trapped in a grown man's body - and yes, he is actually still wearing his cartoon-character underpants.
  • There's a scene in The Black Dahlia where the cops watch a lesbian porn film. Said film features an actress who was brutally murdered but the filmmakers deliberately prevent it from being sexy at all with shots of the actress in tears as she's doing the various sex acts, making it look like a rape video. One of the detectives actually throws something across the room in disgust at the film.
  • Black Snake Moan. Christina Ricci. When you're endowed like that, and your ribs are still more prominent than your breasts, you desperately need a better diet. Ricci ate a diet of fats and starches to give herself an unhealthy appearance for the role of the hypersexual Rae, and wore an actual 40-pound chain for all the scenes with it.
  • Blade: Trinity had a Shower Scene for Jessica Biel. She's washing off the blood of close friends and deadly enemies.
  • Blue Velvet. Dorothy is definitely a beautiful woman, but having her husband and son kidnapped by Frank Booth to force her to perform depraved sexual favors to him, leading her to fall for Jeffrey, constantly asking him to hit her, ending with Frank and his goons dumping Dorothy — naked, battered, and distressed — on Jeffrey's front lawn, suck out any arousal clean. It is a superb film, but it is best to drink Brain Bleach and attend therapy directly afterward.
  • The Book of Revelation: Daniel and one of his rapists (who's quite good-looking) both masturbate explicitly while they're completely naked. As he's been coerced into this, it's naturally less than arousing. The same of course goes for when she anally rapes him with a strap-on dildo. Daniel later having consensual sex with a lot of women is also not very sexy, given it's born out of psychological trauma and a desperate attempt to find the women who'd raped him by finding two's large distinctive birthmark and tattoo.
  • The Boondock Saints. Willem Dafoe in bed, shirtless, with a cute Asian guy? Pretty good fanservice, if you're into that. Willem Dafoe crossdressing to infiltrate the Big Bad's hideout, seducing one of the guards, and then shooting said guard in cold blood when he notices his manhood? Oh no stop no stop no stop no stop no.
  • The nude fight scene in Borat, while also a Funny Moment, showed us way more of Borat and Azamat (especially the latter) than anyone wanted to see.
  • 2007's Born has Alison Brie playing a virgin who becomes pregnant with a demonic foetus and in a later sex scene the foetus eats the penis of the guy she's banging.
  • Bram Stoker's Dracula has the scene with Jonathan, played by the lovely-looking Keanu Reeves, and the three Brides start off as straight Fanservice. All three women are topless and well endowed. But then the fangs come out and you realise you're basically watching a rape scene. There's another one, later on, that doesn't even pretend to be Fanservice. Jonathan is shirtless in this one but the Brides are actively draining his blood and he's also aged a bit because of it.
  • Bride of Chucky has a love scene between Chucky and Tiffany that may have actually been romantic had not both already become horrific and deformed dolls.
  • But I'm a Cheerleader has "simulated sexual lifestyle," in which gay teens are taught how to have straight sex. By dressing in skintight leotards (complete with strategically placed fig leaves) and going through the motions of missionary position sex. It's made very clear that they're not enjoying it at all.
  • Cabin Fever:
    • The infamous leg shaving scene, but perhaps more egregious is Jordan Ladd, who starts decaying before the others, starting with her thigh, leading to the also infamous "that's not her pussy" scene.
    • In the sequel, there is a scene at the very end with a schoolgirl stripper with a burst cold sore on her lip (our first clue that things will go Very Wrong). We see her act overall okay, though she seems a bit tired until she takes off her bra to reveal that her breasts are covered in pustules. One of her admirers in the audience indicates that he'd still tap that.
    • In the third film, we get Penny, who spends most of her screen time in a bikini and is one of the first characters infected. Her boyfriend Josh finds out the hard way why you should have your eyes open while giving oral. Then the virus reaches a point that when he tries to help her stand up, her skin sloughs right off her arms because he pulled on them too hard. Her later Cat Fight against Bridgette takes this even further, as both of them are in very late stages of the virus at that point.
  • Pretty much everything even remotely sexual in the Bob Guccione film Caligula.
  • The Call: Casey spends most of the film's second half in her bra. It's far from sexy however as her eye is very bruised and she's being held captive by a man who wants to scalp her.
  • Candyman: Virginia Madsen's character is arrested and stripped by the police. The fact that Virginia Madsen is naked is quite overshadowed by the fact that she is crying and covered in blood.
  • Almost any movie in the Cannibal Film genre can feature an attractive man or women stripped naked, only to get eaten by the cannibals or tortured in some fashion.
    • If you can stomach the nudity in Cannibal Holocaust, then you need to have your stomach replaced.
    • In Cannibal Ferox, seeing men get castrated or women having hooks stuck through the bottom of their breasts so the ends stick through the tops just isn't pleasant at any speed.
    • In The Green Inferno, Justine spends much of the last part of the movie in a very skimpy outfit. But this is because she only barely escaped having her genitals mutilated.
  • Cannibal Girls opens with a couple relaxing in a snowy forest, when suddenly one of the titular Cannibal Girls kills the boyfriend, rips the girlfriend's shirt open, and puts a dab of blood between her female victim's breasts before presumably killing her.
  • The opening shower scene in Carrie starts out as straight fanservice, with shots of most of the female cast members naked or topless. (The scene in question was even used in Knocked Up when Ben's friends are creating their celebrity porn site.) It quickly turns into disservice when Carrie starts having her period for the first time and is absolutely horrified by what's happening with her body. The 2002 TV remake follows this by having her fully nude and in a foetal position on the shower floor while the blood trickles into the locker room. Then you get the rest of the girls who are all in towels and their underwear surrounding her chanting "period" with the eeriest looks on their faces. There's later another scene where Carrie gets into the bath (fully clothed) but you still see a lot through her dress. She's also covered in pig's blood and her mother tries to drown her.
  • A Clockwork Orange features several explicit rape or near-rape scenes, including a famous scene of Villain Protagonist Alex performing "Singin' in the Rain" as he prepares to do the deed. As a result, rape footage is among the many scenes of violence Alex is forced to watch as part of The Ludovico Technique meant to "cure" him. The film also does this in a more pleasant way to Alex's consensual three-way with a couple of girls pre-Technique, which is sped up and set to the William Tell Overture with hilarious results that underscore how little sex means to him.
  • Compliance: A cashier at a fast-food restaurant, played by the lovely Dreama Walker, is taken into a back room when a policeman calls in and says she's been accused of theft. She's stripped naked, sexually humiliated and spanked, and eventually forced to fellate her manager's boyfriend. The "policeman" turned out to be a fake, a pervert who cold-called a fast-food restaurant looking for a slender blonde.
  • Crank: High Voltage has a nice scene at a strip joint... except a gunfight erupts and a random stripper with implants is shot in the breasts. The implants then start pouring out of her breasts the whole time as they begin to deflate. It's highly doubtful any man's going to be aroused any more by that point. Later on, there's a full shirtless scene with The Dragon as he's forced to cut his own nipples off in excruciatingly graphic detail as punishment for his failure in stopping Chevilos.
  • Horror director David Cronenberg is a master at this:
    • Shivers (1975) has a Lust Plague that will show you why everyone in the world screwing everyone else is not hot at all. The one scene that could have been hot (two attractive women making out) is ruined by the fact that their necks are throbbing with parasites.
    • Rabid has Marilyn Chambers (a porn star of the day) as a sort of vampiric being, which is fair enough (especially when she goes after that bikini-ed brunette in the hot tub), except that she drinks people's blood through a tentacle which emerges from an anus-like hole in her armpit.
    • The Brood gives us Samantha Eggar nude... to see that she has some kind of external uterus.
    • Videodrome. Both the eponymous TV show (for most viewers, anyway) and the film itself. While Debbie Harry is a very attractive woman (becoming a sex symbol as the frontwoman of Blondie), her character being aroused by self-harm definitely isn't sexy; and while James Woods is a handsome enough man, his shoving his gun inside the orifice that just split open in his torso was probably not meant to be sexy.
    • The Fly (1986) has Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis having creepy, animalistic sex. And then there's another scene where Goldblum, by now quite acne-scarred and greasy, has sex with a drugged-out hooker in a filthy room full of candy wrappers.
    • Dead Ringers stars Jeremy Irons as a pair of twin brothers who are gynecologists. The implications alone are hideous enough without the specifics.
    • Film/eXistenZ has Jude Law and Jennifer Jason Leigh in a motel room and then shows the body modification orifice added into the small of the back so that one can port into virtual reality. This is coupled with Jude Law's character arguing against it and sounding virginal, while Leigh's pushes and pushes him into body mods. Ewww. When Law finally gets his port installed, Willem Dafoe does it with an enormous pneumatic machine in a dirty garage. The allusion to buttsecks is obvious, but not terribly appealing for anyone who likes the idea of Dafoe and Law having buttsecks. Plus, the gamepods themselves resemble the bastard children of an N64, a vagina, and an ear.
    • Spider (2002) has a flashback scene of the title character, as a boy, sneaking into a pub, where Miranda Richardson appears as a boozy, creepy slut and waves a breast at him. Made even worse by the fact that Miranda Richardson also plays Spider's mother. The flashbacks also have Richardson in a sordid and very unsexy affair with Spider's father (Gabriel Byrne), except because of Unreliable Narrator, the father keeps getting replaced by Spider himself during the flashbacks.
    • Eastern Promises has naked, heavily tattooed Viggo getting attacked by thugs wielding linoleum knives, the drugged-out and borderline catatonic strippers, and two (underage?) prostitutes kissing drunkenly for Kirill and Nikolai's viewing pleasure, one of whom Nikolai is forced to have sex with. While Kirill watches.
    • Olivia Williams topless in Maps to the Stars is a dicey situation to begin with. Topless and sobbing hysterically in her bathtub? Nuh-uh...
  • Los Cronocrimenes: Looking through his binoculars, Hector sees a braless young woman taking her T-shirt off. Sexy! Then we see the scene again: she's being forced to remove her shirt by a masked man armed with a pair of scissors. The camera looks away from her this time around.
  • When the Creature Shop designed The Dark Crystal's Aughra, did they really have to give her such prominent nipples?
  • In-universe example: In Dazed and Confused, Tony describes a dream he had in which he made love to a perfect female body... except it had Abe Lincoln's head (hat, beard, and all).
  • Dead Man's Shoes: Gang leader Sonny forces a girl to have sex with Anthony, a developmentally disabled teenager being bullied by a gang.
  • Deadpool (2016):
  • Death Ship: Lori, played by the very attractive Victoria Burgoyne, enters a shower naked, only to get sprayed in blood before finally passing out from the shock and being scalded to death.
  • In Demolition Man, Spartan agrees to have sex with Huxley. In the "enlightened" San Angeles of 2032, where "fluid transfer" is banned to prevent disease, this entails putting on helmets meant to project the participants' feelings to each other, and the result can be described as the film projector having an epileptic seizure. Needless to say, Spartan is swift to ask if he can do it the "primitive" way instead, to Huxley's disgust.
  • In The Descent Sarah spends a good deal of the last part of the film in her tight vest top after shedding her other layers and covered in sweat. She also happens to be covered in blood from head to foot.
    • The same can be said for Elen in the sequel The Descent Part 2 who wears a black tank top while being covered in blood.
  • The Devil's Advocate:
    • Charlize Theron whips off the blanket covering her to expose her complete nudity... and the massive number of scratches over her body... as she screams over and over, "He did this to me!" "He" being Satan, who spent the afternoon raping her. The fanservice is sucked right out of the scene.
    • And earlier in that movie, Charlize is trying on clothes with two other women whose faces briefly turn into some sort of weird demon-thing.
    • There's also Connie Nielsen's incredibly sexy character, who eventually gets fully nude in the climax (no pun intended). But by then, Al Pacino's character revealed himself as Satan, that Keanu Reeves' character is his son, and she is Reeves' character's half-sister, and Satan wants them to have sex to procreate The Antichrist. It's that kind of movie.
    • There are many other examples in this film. Remember, lust IS one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
  • District 13: Ultimatum: The thong-clad exotic dancer. And because Fan Disservice is the intention... well, hello unfortunate conclusions.
  • Django Unchained:
    • The first time Django's very pretty wife Broomhilda appears outside of flashbacks and fantasy sequences she's completely naked, but any Fanservice is quickly wrecked by the circumstances: She's been locked in the "hot box" all day as punishment for attempting to escape the plantation, and after they drag her out they douse her with water and take her off in a wheelbarrow, all while she's screaming her head off. Later there's some equal opportunity Fan Disservice when Django himself is mostly naked, but considering he's being suspended from the ceiling by his feet and is tied up while another man threatens to castrate him with a hot knife it loses any appeal just as quickly. In both cases, this is very intentional to highlight the exploitation and objectification of slaves.
    • The Mandingo scene. Django pulls suggestively on a cigar, lips slightly open, while we watch two beautiful, naked men wrestling each other in the soft light of a fire, shot in loving and intentionally homoerotic detail. The men are slaves and they are being forced to murder each other for the entertainment of their evil plantation master, Calvin Candie, which they do in horrific fashion involving a double dose of Eye Scream and the use of a hammer.
  • Dogtooth, an arthouse-y weird Greek film, contains lots and lots of sex, but none of it is sexy. Possibly the most normal sex scenes, with the prostitute hired to slake the son's sexual needs, are joyless and clinical. The others are incestuous, with the children (who are, thankfully, of age) not comprehending the significance of sexual acts.
  • Dr. T & the Women features Farrah Fawcett romping naked in a fountain... during a mental breakdown.

    E-J 
  • Earth (1930): Natalya, Vasyl's fiancée, grieves his death by screaming and wrecking the things in her little cottage—while in the nude.
  • The "love" scene in Eden Log. One half of it is a straightforward love scene (which is how it's occurring in the man's head, not what really happens), but this is contrasted with shots of the man assaulting the woman and her distant screams being heard all throughout the scene.
  • Embrace of the Vampire (2013): Nicole is shown going topless and making out with Cole. This turns into horror when he bites into her neck, with blood gushing from the wound as she begins screaming.
  • Epic Movie (2007) offers at least four scenes of this, three of them being bait-and-switch fat jokes:
    • In the musical scene on Jack Swallows' ship, several pirate wenches are scrubbing the deck with water and soapy suds... except they then get replaced with a big, hairy guy doing the same.
    • During the battle when almost all the heroes get killed, Peter finds the remote from "that Adam Sandler movie" (Click); a female jogger shows up, just like the one in Click (why is she jogging through a battlefield in Narnia?) and he uses the slow-motion function so he can stare at her bouncy boobs. Then an overweight male jogger shows up and we're treated to slow-motion bouncy manboobs.
    • And then there's the pre-battle sex scene when Peter gets it on with Mystique who, played by Carmen Electra in a layer of latex, should sate a good portion of any conventional US audience. Her shapeshifting powers also lead to her already large breasts and buttocks expanding into mouth watering proportions...but then Peter takes advantage of her shapeshifting powers to make her gain a whole lot of weight, along with a unibrow, yellow crossed eyes, long nose hair, and extremely flabby grandma arms (obviously not intended to make her a Big Beautiful Woman from the audience's point of view, despite Peter's delight as they start to sloppily make out, so it counts).
    • There's also a bit of Jayma Mays' sexy back, but after she's just had sex with Fred Willard dressed as a lion.
    • In the extras, there's the special feature "Everyone Loves Beaver: Epic Hookups". The opening montage includes some of sexiest shots of the girls in the film. This includes the scenes of Carmen Electra's Mystique sexily dancing, which is an absolutely lovely sight... except that it's cut up with the scene of her fat, flabby, and crosseyed, wiggling her tongue and starting to have sloppy sex with Peter. We also get an amazing shot of Jennifer Coolidge's cleavage... which also cuts between said flabby mystique, and a goat man making out with a beaver.
  • EuroTrip has a nude beach scene. The cast rushes eagerly there expecting to see tons of hot naked women — and given the pace of the movie so far we wouldn't put it out of the question. Instead, we are greeted with tons of naked men who came to said beach expecting exactly the same thing, and zero naked women because they didn't want to deal with that during tourist season. Oh, and they're not [supposed to be] hot men either — they're chubby, scraggly, unwashed, wrinkly tourist men with skin flaps everywhere. Everywhere.
  • The Evil Dead (1981)'s infamous "tree-rape" scene.
  • Ex Machina:
    • Caleb finds videos of Nathan's sessions with earlier android models, who are stark naked, and it is NOT presented in a sexy manner. And then he finds Nathan's closet full of dismembered androids... It's also heavily implied he has sex with them, given that he points out they're "fully equipped" and we see Kyoko in his bed, both clothed and nude.
    • For a softer example, there's the scene where Ava pieces together a new synthetic skin from parts of old android, leaving her with a fully realistic (nude) human body. Because of the context, the scene comes off as more poignant than erotic.
  • Eyes Wide Shut: The sex scenes. To put it simply, this famous political analysis of the film says "a bunch of middle-school kids who'd snuck in to see it and slunk out three hours later feeling horny, frustrated, and ripped off." All the depicted sex is totally unsexy, if not censored.
  • Fame: Coco is lured to the apartment of a "director" who makes her take off her top in front of his camera. The combination of her tears and his lecherous instructions destroys any possibility of fanservice.
  • Since women in prison films tend to be aimed at a certain set of tastes, with the Female Prisoner Scorpion films director Shunya Itou takes female humiliation and abuse by male guards and weaponizes it against the audience it usually titillates; the title sequence of the first film is the best example. Female convicts exercising nude are not really that bad until the camera starts to focus in on the reactions of the guards, whose grotesque expressions of cruelty and lust remind you that what's titillation to some is horrific degradation to others.
  • Fight Club:
  • Final Destination 3. The Tanning Bed scene. It begins as typical Fanservice, until you are forced to watch them either burn to death or (in the DVD version) collectively electrocuted. Just imagine getting burned in places you really don't want to feel on fire. DVD commentary revealed that the intentionally unerotic color of the tanning bed lights was a deliberate effort at making the scene Fan Disservice.
  • The entire sex scene between Otto and Wanda in A Fish Called Wanda. Not only is it intercut with scenes of the excruciatingly chaste bedtime rituals of Archie (John Cleese) and his wife Wendy—up to and including Archie trimming toenails on his hairy feet—but the sex itself between the former couple is ludicrous. Otto speaks Italian (really mostly a laundry list of Italian food) the entire time, blows up Wanda's boot like a balloon, tears off his undershirt as if he has a Chest Burster coming through, sniffs his underarms, throws Wanda's panties over his face (and says "Benito Mussolini" while doing so) and most blatantly of all, makes the silliest orgasm face imaginable. According to IMDB, the reason Jamie Lee Curtis doesn't say a word during this scene was that she could barely keep from corpsing when the cameras were rolling.
  • Flashdance has Alex's friend Jeanie dancing naked in the Zanzibar bar...while in a massive Heroic BSoD state.
  • Jodie Foster:
    • Taxi Driver: Jodie Foster's character is skimpily dressed, but this is clearly not meant to be sexy and instead intended to reflect the abuse she was suffering as a child prostitute.
    • The Accused: Her character wears a low-cut top and does a sexy dance... then gets brutally gang-raped.
    • Her character's hiked-skirt dance in Nell, much to the amusement of the hicks and horror of Liam Neeson.
  • Fright Night 2: New Blood: Charley watches as Gerri gets a beautiful young woman aroused using her telepathy then also undresses her by telekinesis. It becomes abruptly far less sexy when the woman gets her throat cut and is hung upside down fully nude, with her blood draining into a tub that Gerri then bathes in for restoring her youth.
  • Gaia (2021): Gabi (Monique Rockman) is a very beautiful woman and gets naked a few times over the course of the film. They are all in pretty disturbing contexts.
    • The first time, she is forcibly stripped by Stefan because she got fungus monster blood all over her and the shirt and undershorts she was sleeping in, and they have to get the blood off her. The shirt and shorts have to be burned, forcing her to wear the roughspun Stefan and Barend supply with a sports bra and her uniform pants.
    • The second time is how Gabi sees herself during the increasingly disturbing Mushroom Samba where she may or may not be communicating with a malevolent fungal Eldritch Abomination.
    • The third time she's cleaning herself up and weeping after leaving Barend to die. Yeah, he was a nutjob who tried to sacrifice his own son, and then her, to a "god" who may exist only in his warped head, but she still essentially murdered a fellow human being, and is not taking it well.
  • The worm scene in Galaxy of Terror. Daimeia looks mighty fine, except... yeah... rape by overgrown maggot.
  • Giallo in Venice: Mariangela Giordano is quite a beautiful woman. She doesn't look so nice, though, when she's being stripped down and slowly tortured to death.
  • There's two such moments The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. One is Blondie's shirt hanging open revealing a lot of naked chest, after he's been tortured by being forced to walk in the desert with no water or cover, and is covered in blisters. The other is Tuco - you know, The Ugly. He gets a bath scene, naked except for his gun, and even a brief but loving ass shot.
  • Grandpa's Psycho: There are some shots of naked women in the movie. However, said naked women are typically chained up in Murry's house and covered in dirt and blood, and have huge gashes on their backs from Murry whipping them. So, yeah, not really meant to be sexy.
  • The Guns of Navarone: The identity of the traitor in the group is confirmed when the back of her dress is torn open to show that she had not been whipped as she claimed. This also shows that she wasn't wearing a bra. And then they shoot her.
  • In Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007) and Halloween II (2009):
    • Danielle Harris has nude scenes. In them, she is freaking out and slowly dying in a pool of her own blood.
    • Michael seems to enjoy killing women while they are partially or completely nude since he does it so damn much.
  • The Hangover:
    • Alan and an old man's bare butt. Not to mention the worst of all, at the very end of the credits: Alan getting a blow job in full view of the camera, given by an elderly lady.
    • And in the sequel hermaphrodite strippers.
    • And who can forget the shot of Dr. Chow's baby-sized penis?
  • Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle:
    • Two college girls who are also twins with English accents? Fantasy completely ruined when the boys overhear them playing a game of "Battleshits".
    • An invitation to double-team Freakshow's hot wife? Fantasy dashed to pieces when Freakshow himself offers to join in.
  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:
    • You will probably be squicked out (and probably laugh, too) by Daniel Radcliffe in a lacy bra and panties.
    • From the same film, Bellatrix and Hermione's "girl talk" scene. Helena Bonham Carter pinning Emma Watson to the floor sound hot? Not when the former's doing it to brutally torture the latter, it ain't!
  • In Hellboy (2019), Baba Yaga is shown wearing even more of a Navel-Deep Neckline than Nimue does. Too bad she's a hideously disfigured old hag with emaciated, sagging breasts that couldn't be less titillating if she tried.
  • Hellraiser:
    • Hellraiser: Bloodline: Valentina Vargas is a very attractive woman, but while she initially plays the fanservice aspects straight when Angelique looks like a regular human, she later gets transformed into a cenobite by Pinhead, looking like a leather-clad corpse with visible cleavage and a scalped head.
    • In Hellraiser: Inferno, the makeout scene Joseph has with the Wire Twins clearly invokes this. They're mutilated, eyeless Cenobites in bondage-type clothing and give him an erotic massage by burrowing their hands into his chest. Joseph is partly turned on and partly appalled and halts it partway through.
  • Hitchhiker Massacre: After the credits start to roll, the movie cuts to a naked woman waking up and trying to escape from where she was being held. She's also covered in blood.
  • The Swedish film A Hole in My Heart, as thoroughly discussed on this review.
    Porn has more value. One thing that can be said about A Hole in My Heart is that, despite lots of graphic sex and nudity, there's not an erotic moment in the film.
  • In Holiday on the Buses, Olive wears a bikini to the indoor pool that is much too small, and the audience gets a good look at her pudgy body. Ironically, Anna Karen was a glamour model before playing Olive.
  • Horse Girl: Sarah walks into a store completely naked at one point, though in her incoherent state this is far from sexy.
  • In Hostel Part II, Heather Matarazzo shows us that she looks very nice naked but the fact that she's hanging from her ankles, terrified and screaming in agony while being tortured to death with a scythe robs the scene of any lingering Fanservice that it might otherwise have had.
  • Hot Bot: It is safe to assume that most viewers watching a film about an advanced Sexbot played by Cynthia Kirchner did not really want to see a pasty, flabby naked Larry Miller.
  • The Houses October Built has a scene where the main characters visit a strip club. What would be a typical fanservice sequence is complicated by the fact that the club is holding some sort of Halloween event, so the strippers are all wearing grotesque rubber zombie masks. The characters themselves are more amused than anything else, though.
  • House of Sand and Fog: Jennifer Connelly and Ron Eldard have some really hot sex intercut with Ben Kingsley and Shohreh Aghdashloo having old-person sex.
  • Hustler Squad: Crystin Sinclaire and Nory Wright have sex with old crusty Japanese Generals. The guy with Wright gives us a quite humorous O-face.
  • Il deserto rosso has a sex scene near the end which looks very clinical and not sexy. The music adds to this feel.
  • Inglourious Basterds has a brief Imagine Spot featuring Joseph Goebbels (yes, that Goebbels) having sex.
  • It Follows:
    • "It" often appears in the nude, partially or otherwise, but they're never a pleasant sight, often looking like walking corpses. When Jay finds It in her kitchen, it appears in the form of a brutalized young woman (heavily implied to be a rape-murder victim) with torn clothes and urine running openly down her legs. Later, It takes the form of Greg's mother, with her breasts exposed, before pinning him down and seemingly raping the poor guy to death.
    • While none of the sex scenes in the film are played for Fanservice, the second one, in which Jay and Greg have sex, is especially uncomfortable to watch because Jay is only doing it to pass It onto Greg, essentially giving him a death sentence. She looks anguished during the act. Not to mention, they're doing it in a hospital bed, which is pretty unappealing by itself, and Jay has been in the hospital for quite some time and is terrified that It will appear at any time.
  • Jailbait (2014) has multiple Shower Scenes with the female inmates. Most of them involve Vomit Indiscretion Shots and brutal beatings.
  • Even the James Bond films aren't immune to this:
    • Die Another Day: The opening credits are done in the same style as every James Bond credits sequence: pop music, flashy edits, and writhing female silhouettes. But it's intercut with a plot-advancing torture scene, and there's a strong suggestion that the sexy images are Bond's hallucinations as the suffering ravages his mind.
    • Casino Royale (2006):
      • Daniel Craig and Eva Green? Sexy as hell. Are they sexy when they get into a shower with their clothes still on? Most definitely. But not when the reason they get into the shower is that she is in shock after watching him brutally kill some mooks and he's trying to comfort her.
      • James Bond is naked, tied to a wicker chair with the bottom cut out, and struck repeatedly in the groin with a rope by means of Cold-Blooded Torture. The fact that Bond is utterly broken with pain and the occasional screams of Vesper in the other room ruin any fetish material this may have had for any but the most depraved; even though Bond is laughing through the whole thing, he does it in a horrible, half-hysteric fashion. But on the other hand, Bond laughing and mocking his torturer through it ("NO! NO! TO THE RIGHT! TO THE RIGHT!") may count as a Moment of Awesome.
  • Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday has what is probably the most graphic sex scene in the series, with a chick riding her boyfriend cowgirl style in a tent. In the middle of sex, she gets impaled and ripped in half with a tent spike, vomiting blood onto her boyfriend, who's just screaming his ass off before getting his skull crushed.

    K-R 
  • Kate includes a scene of Mary Elizabeth Winstead in her skivvies, but she is actively dying of poison so she's covered in ugly bruises.
  • The Last House on the Left: In the opening scene, two attractive women are brutally raped.
  • One scene in Leo the Last has Leo and Margaret naked in a swimming pool with some other people for some kind of health ritual. As they bounce up and down, an underwater camera shows their bodies undulating in bizarre ways.
  • In the movie Lifeforce (1985), the main characters are hunting a space vampire who looks like an attractive young woman who doesn't wear any clothes. Firmly fanservice, but when she visits a man in his dreams after she's made a mental connection to him, she proceeds to make out with him while lightning is engulfing the room and animalistic shrieks and howls can be heard all around them.
  • Any and all of Mari Hoff in Little Voice. Being that the character is essentially a walking mid-life crisis, she wears revealing clothes more suited for a woman twenty years younger. She also sleeps with a wrinkly and equally-badly dressed Michael Caine, the film's villain.
  • The Lives of Others has Christa-Maria, an actress, who is seen getting into someone's car for an assignation. But she's repulsed by the Stasi minister, and her wince - and the shot of his underpants momentarily threatens to be Narm.
  • The Lobster: Actors in their underwear: normally hot. Soft-bodied middle-aged actors in unflattering underwear: not so hot. Knowing that these less-than-perfect specimens have a tight deadline to find romance or else: even less hot.
  • The 1997 film adaptation of Lolita is a double dose. The sex scenes with the female lead are uncomfortable for obvious reasons (Dominique Swain was fifteen at the time)... and then the viewers see how much worse it can get when Frank Langella, 60 years old and playing the other pedophile Clare Quilty, starts running around in an open bathrobe. The squicky pedophilic factor aside, there is one sex scene that would almost be (uncomfortably) titillating if he was not tearfully begging her over and over as she laughs at him, showing both of their diminishing sanities.
  • Molly, in Lovely Molly, is an attractive woman, and the movie features her with full frontal and rear nudity. Too bad that most of them involve her being possessed and extremely violent...
  • Ang Lee's film version of Lust, Caution was rated NC-17 in the States for containing around ten minutes of sex scenes with full frontal nudity. Depressing, tragic full frontal nudity.
  • Lycan:
    • The opening scene shows a fat, average-looking guy who is having vigorous sex with a very good-looking prostitute.
    • Isabella, who's very beautiful, is shown bathing in Kenny's blood nude (not explicitly).
  • David Lynch is very good at this trope:
    • Mulholland Dr. is best known for the lesbian scenes making the movie Best Known for the Fanservice, but near the end, Naomi Watts is seen masturbating. Is it arousing? Not really, unless you're turned on by a miserable, frustrated, crying woman trying furiously to climax.
    • Inland Empire. Laura Dern? A pretty attractive gal. Justin Theroux? A pretty attractive guy. You'd never guess that them having sex is actually one of the most nightmarish scenes in the film (probably thanks to Nothing Is Scarier). Probably has something to do with the fact that It's the first scene where Nikki realizes she's lost in her character.
  • The Machinist has Christian Bale shirtless a lot and even completely naked at times. Unfortunately, this is Christian Bale weighing all of 50 kg, and he looks disturbingly cadaverous—most likely intentionally. Though the man is quite handsome, the fact that when he kneels, you can count his vertebrae and clearly see the outlines of his ribcage and shoulder blades cuts the squee factor considerably. Apparently, Bale managed the feat by eating only a can of tuna and a single apple each day in preparation for the role and freaked the director out with his dedication. And then had to bulk up immediately after shooting to play Batman in Batman Begins.
  • The Magdalene Sisters:
    • There's a scene where young girls have to stand naked in front of nuns who cruelly comment on their body flaws until one of the girls burst into tears.
    • One of the girls takes her dress off... to reveal that she has the same body/skin rash as the Padre that sexually abused her while saying "YOU'RE NOT A MAN OF GOD!" all over again.
  • Malèna:
    • The scene in which the gorgeous Malena (also played by Monica Bellucci) walks around only in her lingerie and in a dazed state after having been dragged through the streets and brutally beaten up by the jealous women of the town. She's half nude but also covered in blood and crying.
    • The scene at the brothel comes across as this as well. You have all the whores surrounding Renato (who is in his early teens), mockingly blowing kisses at him and making fun of him. The way the scene is done makes it more creepy than sexy.
  • Marvel Cinematic Universe:
  • Takashi Miike:
    • Dead Or Alive. Two words: shit bath.
    • Visitor Q. Incest, necrophilia, and milking are really just the start.
  • All of the "lovely ladies" in Les Misérables (2012) are simultaneously sexed-up and repulsive. In particular, there's one shot where an extremely large pair of breasts is shoved into the viewer's face; they belong to a sickly pale, obese woman covered in dirt and blood. Madame Thenardier's design is similar (which is still an upgrade from the book).
  • The film adaptation of Mommie Dearest features a scene where we can see a Panty Shot of a twenty-something-year-old Diana Scarwid. It would be pretty hot, had it not been during a one-sided fight scene between her and her on-screen mother, Faye Dunaway, where they are portraying Christina and Joan Crawford and she is being attacked and strangled by her mother. Also, did we mention that she's playing a teenaged girl at the time and that her underwear looks more like a diaper? Yeah...
  • Monkeybone opens with an episode of the eponymous cartoon starring a parody of its creator, Stu. In it, Young Stu finds himself oddly aroused by the repeated, slow-motion slapping of his teacher's fatty forearms.
  • In The Mummy (1999), Imhotep sneaks into Evy's room and kisses her while she's asleep. To make it even creepier, his face is partially rotted.
  • The man getting breast milk squirted up his butt in Mystery Team.
  • Ridley Scott's Napoleon: The sex scenes of Napoleon and Joséphine weren't made to arouse. Both are clothed each time, Napoleon taking her doggy style was filmed in the least glorified way possible, and she doesn't seem to particularly enjoy it.
  • The New Mutants: Rahne is having a Shower Scene, when she's suddenly attacked by an illusion of Reverend Craig, who brands her again. When she's seen again, she's naked and shivering in terror and pain.
  • Nine: "Take It All", as Luisa announces her intention to finally leave him, Guido imagines his wife as a burlesque dancer performing a strip-tease, while being cat-called, groped, and fondled by a bunch of callow men in the audience, all the while her tearfully singing of how his treatment has hollowed her out as a person and robbed her of her self-worth.
  • Norbit. Eddie Murphy in a fat suit as the title character's domineering, aggressive girlfriend. Also made somewhat weird in that Eddie Murphy (being Eddie Murphy) also plays Norbit.
  • Not Okay: There's not much that's sexy about Danni's sex scene. It's uncomfortable for her and Colin's dirty talk is more disturbing than erotic.
  • The Novice: Alex is shown topless from the back and side but this is more disturbing than anything else as it shows her either cutting herself, showcases scars from her previous Self-Harm or she's in the midst of obvious intense stress.
  • Nutty Professor II: The Klumps:
    • The villainous Buddy Love (now reduced to blue protoplasm again) gets stuck to a rotund woman's backside. That's all well and good, but then she has an attack of gas and farts him out.
    • The dream sequence with Grandma Klump leaping through a field of daisies with her enormous, saggy breasts flopping up and down inside a see-through nightgown.
  • Oldboy (2003) has an awkward scene between the antagonist, and his sister that looks an awful lot like coercion/rape until she pulls out a mirror and starts smiling. Later we find out that the other slightly awkward sex scene from earlier in the film was even further down the incest tree.
  • Other Halves opens with two lovers lying naked on the floor. His throat has been ripped out, and she's covered with his blood.
  • P2: Rachel Nichols spends nearly the whole film running around in just a white dress with her cleavage on display... while being chased around a deserted parking garage by a creepy, evil security guard with a gun and a rottweiler.
  • An unpleasant scene in an otherwise fine movie — Pay It Forward. The scene in question was a love scene... between Helen Hunt and a badly-scarred Kevin Spacey. Creepy. Uncomfortable.
  • The first half of Piranha 3D features lots of attractive college students on spring break, the gorgeous women in bikinis and the hunky men usually shirtless, as well as the stars and producers of a Girls Gone Wild-esque softcore porno filming their movie. The second half revolves around those tits, asses, abs, and (in one case) a penis getting devoured and torn apart by swarms of piranha in graphic detail. An especially notable case is the bikini babe who gets sliced in half by a high-tension wire. First, her bikini top falls off, exposing her breasts... and then the rest of her upper torso follows suit. Another shot is of a woman's corpse, stripped almost down to the bones, at the bottom of the lake, the camera focusing on her breast implants floating away.
  • Isabelle Adjani having sex (over and over and over again) with a Cthulhu creature in Possession (1981).
  • Possessor: All the sex in the movie is portrayed as such. Vos can't get over thoughts of violence when having sex with her husband, and the sight of frontal nudity involving Colin and Ava is undermined by the fact that Vos is possessing his body the whole time. Vos, while possessing Colin, also sees a British couple right before and then while they have sex, but only because she's spying on them.
  • The infamous shower scene in Psycho. The remake includes the voyeuristic undressing of Marion, repeated shot-for-shot — except now we're treated to Vince Vaughn's "oh" face accompanied by ridiculous splat noises.
  • Pulp Fiction has a scene with Mia (Uma Thurman) in an open white shirt with a black bra underneath. This would have been sexy, if it hadn't been for the fact that Mia is dying from an overdose, her face is covered in blood, and she is about to have a huge syringe plunged into her heart (which saves her life, but looks rather gruesome).
  • Quills:
    • The movie features a camera panning over Kate Winslet's naked body in extreme close-up. Too bad she's, you know, DEAD.
    • Also, in a later scene when lots of the insane asylum inmates briefly break out a lot of them are running around naked. Most of them are not attractive.
  • Re-Animator:
    • The love interest (Barbara Crampton) shows full frontal nudity. The problem? The disembodied head oozing blood over her while a headless corpse gropes her.
    • Much milder but still lady-boner ruining case earlier on. The usually cold Dr. West draping a blanket over Dan's shoulders and giving him a tender hug? Want. While Dan is huddled in the fetal position, going catatonic because his life is in shambles thanks to the creepy guy whose idea of reassurance is to say he got it all on tape? Do Not Want.
  • [REC]:
    • Medeiros is definitely not someone you ever want to see naked and yet the camera takes at least a minute to pan over her mostly nude deformed and mutated body.
    • Angela Vidal mostly wears a white tank top on the 3 films she's in, but in the second film, she's covered in blood and possessed.
  • Red Beard was the only film from director Akira Kurosawa that featured nudity. A naked young woman is undergoing surgery, and though it isn't graphically shown, the fact that she's thrashing around and screaming in agony (no anaesthetic when the movie takes place) makes one eager for it to end.
  • Resident Evil Film Series:
    • Towards the end of Resident Evil (2002), Matt finally loses his shirt. He has a vest on underneath but still looks damn good in it. Immediately afterwards, however, he is mauled by the Licker and the resulting wounds... would've looked much less gross if he'd kept the shirt on.
    • Resident Evil: Extinction: L.J (Mike Epps) is attacked by a female infected zombie, who had an exposed rotting breast.
  • Nicole Carrow from Rest Stop is covered in blood while wearing just a bra.
  • Rise: Blood Hunter: Sadie is wholly or partly nude more than once. A lot of it is less than sexy though, given the specific circumstances (for instance being hung upside down to bleed out).
  • The film adaption of The Road to Wellville has this in spades. Nude scenes with Colm Meaney and Camryn Manheim, random shots of naked flabby men, John Neville in short shorts, and Anthony Hopkins giving himself an enema. Not to mention Lara Flynn Boyle, depending, of course, on how much you're turned on by skeletons with skin stretched over them.

    S-Z 
  • Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, which was based on the famous story by the Marquis de Sade (who gave us the word "sadism" and really needs no introduction), takes "disservice" to a whole new level and beyond. Possibly the most perverse and disturbing film ever made, depicting how four unnamed fascist libertines kidnap a bunch of cute teens of both genders and subject them to 120 days of physical, mental, and sexual torture...
  • Saw III features a trap involving a completely naked woman in a meat locker who, after the protagonist enters the room, starts getting periodically sprayed with cold water while he decides whether or not to save her before she freezes to death. Word of God says that they were going to have her in a T-shirt to preserve her modesty - but decided that erect nipples through a T-shirt, regardless of context, would tantalize too much.
  • Scary Movie: Cindy is stripped down to her bra as she takes complete joy in losing her virginity ... until the climax.
  • Schindler's List has lots of nudity, but it's mostly not erotic (there are a couple of actual sex scenes) because you can't make a film about a concentration camp sexy:
    • Helen Hirsch, a Jewish woman who was chosen to be the head of the camp's maid, is hiding from him while he's preying on her. He enters the room. She's standing there while he talks to her and caresses her, with her nightgown being clingy enough to show her nipples. The fact that she's scared out of her wits and that he then beats her up removes any possible fanservice this might have had.
    • There's a segment towards the middle where both the men and women laborers are getting their check-ups in masse and running around full-frontal nude. Once again, since they're malnourished, terrified slaves, there is absolutely nothing erotic to be found.
    • Towards the end, the women get sent to Auschwitz because of a typo and have to be stripped down for a shower on entry. They've heard rumors that the "shower" means "gas chamber" so they're all huddled together naked, screaming because they think they're about to die. Thankfully, it was actually a shower, but it's still portrayed as being absolutely horrifying and not sexy in any way (Though their overjoyed relief at not dying could be seen as kinky by some people...)
  • A Serbian Film: With sex scenes that are all as sick, nauseating, and bloody as possible.
  • In Sex Tape, the tape in question is about as unsexy as possible.
  • Sex: The Annabel Chong Story is a documentary about the 1990s porn performer Annabel Chong, and her attempt to have sex with more than 250 men in ten hours. There are at least three areas of disservice:
    • Chong comes across as a Broken Bird with a Dark and Troubled Past and a self-harming present.
    • There is a really awkward meeting between Chong and her parents, who did not know about her porn career and do not approve.
    • The record attempt has to be abandoned because the men keep on being violent to Chong.
  • While Nancy from The Shallows: is very attractive (well, she is played by Blake Lively) and when she's is not wearing her wetsuit she's in a bikini, unfortunately, she's bloodied and bruised due to her current predicament during most of the movie.
  • Shame features Michael Fassbender's character engaging in sex with numerous attractive women in full NC-17-rated glory. Never once is he depicted receiving significant arousal or enjoyment from having sex with any of them, but instead the explicitness is used to illustrate how enslaved he is to his addiction to sex.
  • She Hate Me: Some of the women Jack has sex with aren't so attractive, and in one case half-strangles him during the act despite his protests.
  • She's Out of My League: Kirk's scene shaving his genitals (although nothing is seen). For one, he cuts himself twice.
  • The "dogging" scene in Shrooms, where Jerk Jock Bluto puts his dick through a car window in expectation of oral sex, only to have it bitten off by a ghost monk who looks like a dessicated corpse.
  • Sightseers has a lady getting out her pink crotchless lingerie and spreading it on the bed. She hand-knitted it.
  • Famed example from Silence of the Lambs: Buffalo Bill dancing naked with his penis tucked between his legs. His "Would you fuck me?" is answered around the world with a resounding "No" by the viewers.
  • Pyramid Head in the Silent Hill movie (also mentioned in the video games section). Incredibly muscular shirtless man wearing nothing but a robe? Hot. Incredibly muscular shirtless man wearing a torture helmet and covered in blood? Not so much. Incredibly muscular shirtless man covered in blood and ripping off a woman's skin with one hand? That's why he's such a Memetic Molester.
  • Sleeping with the Enemy. Visually, the sex scene between Martin and Laura is appealing, but it's ruined by the context—this is makeup sex for him to atone for hitting her earlier and the expression on her face makes it clear that she hates every minute of it. In an interview marking the film's 30th anniversary, Patrick Bergin (Martin's actor) bluntly declares, "It's rape".
  • Snapshot (1979): Angela, played by the very attractive Sigrid Thornton, poses nude for a photoshoot, but the fact that she's being pressured into doing it makes it rather uncomfortable to watch.
  • Somebody I Used to Know: Ally's nudism series features many older people who aren't attractive conventionally.
  • In Species II, the sex scene between the two human-alien hybrids is intercut with Body Horror and their alien halves.
  • Splice: Adrien Brody having sex with a woman/animal hybrid creature, which is also technically his daughter.
  • Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Which is worse: Uhura — whose actress is 57 years old — doing a naked fan dance? Or the three-breasted catgirl stripper?
  • Star Wars:
  • Strange Days, a not-quite-cyberpunk film from the late '90s, had a plot which centered around the increasing use of recorded memories turned into a full-sensory virtual-reality experience. While the main character primarily deals in the obvious pornographic applications of this wondrous technology, things go bad when he receives a disc that was recorded by a rapist/killer who, in turn, was jacked into the victim directly — so that both the user of the disc and the victim get a taste of the sensations of the rapist. The main character immediately threw up. The members of the audience were probably not that far behind.
  • Stoned (2005) features quite a bit of male and female full-frontal and rear nudity that comes off as uncomfortable rather than titilating. Not helping is the fact that Stoned is a biopic based on the end of founding member Brian Jones's life, which can make this even more uncomfortable for some.
  • All of Laura's sex scenes with clients in Student Services feature no music and are filmed to make it clear that what she's doing is abhorrent to her.
  • Kathryn and her daughter Milja in The Survivalist:
    • The first time we see Milja naked, there is Questionable Consent to contend with.
    • On another occasion, she is attempting to perform an abortion on herself.
    • When we see Kathryn naked there is no coercion or threat (she's swimming in the river), but she's not as young and pert as her daughter, and some people won't find that attractive.
  • Take this Waltz: The shower scene with Michelle Williams and Sarah Silverman is shot in an intentionally unsexy manner. Additionally, the dialogue in that scene (Silverman telling Williams to "pee in the shower like a lady") might come across as a bit Squicky to some people.
  • In Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny, the part where Jack Black and Kyle Gass show each other their ass birthmarks.
  • Theresa & Allison: Theresa, an attractive young woman, is having sex in bed with another good-looking lady, but this soon turns into horror as the latter reveals she's a vampire by biting into Theresa's neck. Theresa spends a lot of time naked, bleeding and not looking too good after this. She and Allison are also seen naked feeding on a bound woman while they get drenched with her blood, then have sex beside her.
  • There's Something About Mary includes a scene in which one of Mary's suitors is spying on her changing her clothes. He aims binoculars at her room to get a good look at her naked breasts. Unfortunately, the binoculars are aiming at the window next to Mary's, and he - and the audience! - see the very unattractive naked breasts of the elderly woman who lives with Mary. There's also a scene at the beginning involving a zipper...
  • Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen has Alice, a seductive college girl played by the smoking hot Isabel Lucas, who even gets a make-out scene with the main character complete with gratuitous panty shot. The catch is that her true form is a butt-ugly alien Killer Robot who promptly drops the disguise and tries to murder him. Even the aforementioned panty shot has its titillation factor drastically lessened by the razor-tipped robotic tentacle poking out from under her skirt.
  • Under the Skin has two examples:
    • Scarlett Johansson stars as a seductive alien, she has the naked scene with the deformed man.
    • "Scarlett Johansson undressing another woman" loses a lot of its appeal when the other woman is comatose or dead. The next time we see Johansson's character she's wearing the other woman's clothes. We never see the other woman again.
  • In Unfriended: Dark Web, while the main characters go through the files on the laptop Matias had stolen, there are several images and security cam footage of women who are not always properly dressed. Considering that they are filmed or taken by a deep web hacker group that are either torturing them or using them as Sex Slaves, it instead heightens how Sick and Wrong the situation is.
  • In 1981's Venom (1981) (which is nothing to do with this one) - Susan George's character is on the floor in a French maid's outfit, legs kicking and on the verge of popping out of her lingerie. Although Oliver Reed and Klaus Kinski are in the scene, they aren't why it's Fan Disservice. She's been bitten by a Black Mamba, and is having a horribly painful and over the top demise.
  • What Keeps You Alive: Jules is seen fully nude. Unfortunately it's when Jackie is drowning her in their bathtub.
  • Deacon's "erotic dance" in What We Do in the Shadows is a downplayed example. There's nothing gross or traumatic going on, but the combination of the the flailing choreography and Deacon's facial expressions makes the whole thing more awkwardly comedic than sensual. (Possible Fridge Brilliance: Vampires in WWDITS can't see their own reflections, so Deacon has no way to know how his dance routine actually looks while being performed.)
  • Where Hands Touch: Leyna and some other female inmates are shown naked at one point in the camp washing. In the circumstances (imprisoned, with Nazi guards watching) it's far from appealing even with the good-looking ones.
  • The Wall Slap scene from The Wicker Man (1973) is at once extremely sexy (naked Britt Ekland and naked Britt Ekland body double!) and extremely creepy.
  • Robin Williams:
    • There are circumstances where he could be considered Fanservice material (stop laughing)... but not in The Fisher King when he's playing a mentally ill homeless man all covered in dirt. And he's jumping around for God's sake. That would be a turn off in the case of any full-frontal scene.
    • Jack: Delicious open shirt is not delicious when he's playing a 10-year-old boy in a 40-year-old man's body who is suffering from angina.
    • One Hour Photo: Will Yorkin and Maya Burson are nude and forced to pose sexually by Sy Parrish at knifepoint. Very disturbing. Also, Sy has a shower scene after his Eye Scream nightmare. No, it is not a fanservice-y Shower of Angst.
  • Wishmaster 4: The Prophecy Fulfilled: There is a sex scene between the Djinn in its human form and the protagonist. In the middle of it, multiple monstrous Djinn arms suddenly appear to caress Lisa, which she doesn't notice.
  • The VVitch:
    • The witch appears nude in several scenes. Given that she's an extremely elderly woman, and she's covered in blood in most of those scenes, it's far from erotic.
    • When the witch does appear as an attractive young woman to seduce Caleb, the mood is ominous, the music is eerie, and though he follows her beckoning, he's so upset that he's on the verge of tears.
    • At the climax of the film, Thomasin strips naked and walks into the woods to join a witches' coven. While she herself is not unattractive, any sex appeal is undermined by the scene's twisted context, her questionable agenote , and the fact that she's still partly covered in her mother's blood.
  • Witchboard: '80s sex kitten Tawny Kitaen has a full-frontal shower scene — but the shower (controlled by a malevolent spirit) traps her and sprays her with scalding-hot water, and Kitaen's panic, agony and terror completely defuses any eroticism.
  • Withnail and I has a number of scenes in which Paul McGann is not wearing very much and looking attractively disheveled. A lot of them count as straight-up fanservice, but in one of them, his character has a Near-Rape Experience at the hands of a man who's possibly all of twice his size.
  • Wolf Girl: Shower scene? Check! Head-to-toe hairy 'wolf' girl? Double check! Beau is as handsome as his name implies but what's not so attractive is his micro penis. Athena, the fattest woman on Earth, dressed in a can-can costume and doing a seductive pose for Krystal while eating cotton candy. Unless of course you are actually into that.
  • X-Men Film Series:
    • In X2: X-Men United, Mystique tries using her powers to shift into various women to seduce Wolverine. It's straight-up fanservice until she turns into Rogue, who in this movie series takes the "young protégée" place that girls like Jubilee and Kitty Pryde have had in Wolverine's life, and then into Stryker of all people.
    • The Wolverine has mutant villainess Viper take off her top... before proceeding to rip off her own skin.
  • Zardoz has Sean Connery spending much of his time wearing a red speedo with matching crisscrossing bandoliers and black thigh-high boots. And then there's a scene where he disguises himself by wearing a wedding dress... There's also a scene in which Sean's character is made to watch a film of two naked women rolling around in the mud. It doesn't arouse him, understandably.
  • Zwartboek: Full frontal nudity from the obese and disgusting Franken. Rachel is put through a Humiliation Conga by the Dutch resistance as punishment for sleeping with a Nazi, which involves her being stripped naked, forced to sing Happy Days are Here Again, gets hits with a stick to get her in position, has a bucket of crap dumped on her (apparently placed there just for that reason), and they finally finish her off by "cleaning" her with a high-pressure fire hose. Another example is the first sex scene with the aforementioned Nazi - "Is this Jewish?".

    Unsorted 
  • Many of the Mexican film output during the late '70s and The '80s consisted on "películas de ficheras" (movies about sexy cabaret dancers, with plenty of nudity and sex, by the way), basically their answer to the Awful British Sex Comedy genre. The disservice part in those? They featured many actors and comedians who were just plain hideous or fat (or a combination of both) as foils or romantic interests, and in half of the naked scenes, and at least in one case, doing full frontal nudity.
