skinflick

Erotic movie production

A skinflick is a movie featuring nudity and sexual content, typically low-budget pornography or soft-core erotica.

The term dates from the 1960s when such films began playing in dedicated theaters: The old theater downtown used to show skinflicks.

The word carries a slightly dismissive or humorous tone.
