Not all film noir's are erotic, but all erotic thrillers draw on the
stylization, aesthetics and plotting of film noir. For example:

Most of these belong in their own respective genres rather than the reductive "thriller" label.

Mulholland Drive is a surrealist mystery art film.

Eyes Wide Shut is an erotic drama film.

Sex Lies & Videotape is a drama film.

Les Diaboliques is a psychological horror film.

Not raining on your parade, just saying!

I had the same thought. But for some reason erotic is listed under the genres in this site.

BLACK SWAN is a psychological horror film

And so is Gone Girl....this list needs to be revised

I invite discussion in the thread, and I welcome suggestions.'
I'll make changes when I agree with them.

Good luck.

Too many usual suspects yammering on how their opinion is the only correct one...

Since we've established genres are just down to opinion, I believe Psycho is a comedy. Please don't correct me!

Of course there's still new ones being made....but I kinda feel like the genre peaked in the 90s....kinda like the 'teenager get laid' comedy genre peaked in the 80s.

Could also be just nostalgia about the films that I saw back in the day compared to now.

So does that mean Perfect Blue is an erotic thriller too because it's more of a psychological thriller flick to me, and many people. So neither that film, and Black Swan belong on the erotic thriller list as they don't fit the erotic thriller genre at all.
