The recent critical and commercial success of The Housemaid, which grossed approximately $400 million worldwide against a reported budget of $30 million, brought erotic thrillers back into vogue. The genre peaked in the 1990s, with hits such as Basic Instinct and Fatal Attraction, but studios have largely ignored erotic movies in recent years, perhaps because of a perceived Gen Z aversion to sex. The landscape was quite different even a decade ago, when Hollywood delivered the highest-grossing erotic movie of all time, suggesting that millennials have no issues at all with on-screen intimacy. The movie in question is currently streaming on Netflix in the United States, but it’ll leave the platform soon.
Produced on a reported budget of $40 million, the film grossed around $570 million at the worldwide box office. Unlike The Housemaid, which has a “Certified Fresh” 73% critics’ score and a “Verified Hot” 92% audience score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the 2015 erotic movie was critically panned with a 25% critics’ score. However, this clearly didn’t deter audiences from thronging the theaters. The film was successful enough to spawn two sequels, which were produced back-to-back and released in 2017 and 2018, respectively.
Collider Exclusive · TV Medicine Quiz Which Fictional Hospital Would You Work Best In? The Pitt · ER · Grey’s Anatomy · House · Scrubs
Five hospitals. Five completely different ways medicine goes sideways on television — brutal, chaotic, romantic, brilliant, and ridiculous. Only one of them is the ward your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out exactly where you belong.
🚨The Pitt
🏥ER
💉Grey’s
🔬House
🩺Scrubs
01
A critical patient comes through the door. What’s your first instinct? Medicine under pressure reveals who you actually are.
02
Why did you go into medicine in the first place? The honest answer says more about you than the one you’d give in an interview.
03
What do you actually want from the people you work with? Who you want beside you under pressure is who you are.
04
You lose a patient you fought hard to save. How do you carry it? Every doctor who’s worked a long shift has had to answer this question.
05
How would your colleagues describe the way you work? Your reputation on the floor is usually more accurate than your self-image.
06
How do you feel about hospital protocol and procedure? Every institution has rules. What you do with them is a choice.
07
What does this job cost you personally? Nobody works in medicine without paying a price. What’s yours?
08
At the end of a long shift, what keeps you coming back? The answer to this question is the most honest thing about you.
Your Assignment Has Been Made You Belong In…
Your answers have pointed to one fictional hospital above all others. This is the ward your instincts, your temperament, and your particular brand of dysfunction were built for.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center
The Pitt
You are built for the most unsparing version of emergency medicine television has ever shown — one that puts you inside a single fifteen-hour shift and doesn’t let you look away.
You need your work to be real, not romanticised — meaning over drama, honesty over aesthetics.
You find purpose inside the work itself, not in the chaos surrounding it.
You’ve made peace with the fact that this job takes from you constantly, and gives back in ways that are harder to name.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center demands exactly that kind of person — and you would not want to be anywhere else.
County General Hospital, Chicago
ER
You are the person who keeps the whole floor running — not the most brilliant in the room, but possibly the most essential.
You show up, do the work, absorb the losses, and come back the next day without needing the job to be anything other than what it is.
You care about patients as individual human beings, not as cases to solve or dramas to live through.
You believe in the system even when it fails you — and you understand that emergency medicine is about holding the line just long enough.
ER is television about endurance. You have it.
Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, Seattle
Grey’s Anatomy
You came to medicine with your whole self — your ambition, your emotions, your relationships, your history — and you have never quite managed to leave any of it at the door.
You feel things fully and form deep attachments to the people you work with.
Your personal and professional lives are permanently, chaotically entangled — and that entanglement drives both your greatest disasters and your most remarkable saves.
You understand that extraordinary medicine often happens at the intersection of clinical skill and profound human connection.
It’s messy at Grey Sloan. You would not have it any other way.
Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, NJ
House
You are drawn to the problem above everything else — the symptom that doesn’t fit, the diagnosis hiding underneath the obvious one.
You’re not primarily motivated by the patient as a person — though you are capable of caring, even if you’d deny it.
You work best when the stakes are highest and the standard answer is wrong.
Princeton-Plainsboro exists to house one extraordinary, impossible mind — and everyone around that mind is there because they’re smart enough to keep up.
The only way forward here is to think harder than everyone else in the room. That is exactly what you do.
Sacred Heart Hospital, California
Scrubs
You understand that medicine is tragic and absurd in almost equal measure — and that the only sane response is to hold both of those things at the same time.
You are warm, self-aware, and funnier than most people in your field.
You use humour to get through terrible moments — and at Sacred Heart, that’s not a flaw, it’s a survival strategy.
You lean on the people around you and let them lean back. The laughter and the grief are genuinely inseparable here.
Scrubs is a show about learning to become someone worthy of the job. You are still very much in the middle of that process — which is exactly right.
Netflix Is Removing ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ Soon
We’re talking, of course, about Fifty Shades of Grey. Directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, the movie launched Dakota Johnson to stardom, and also featured Jamie Dornan in a role that almost went to Charlie Hunnam. Hunnam reportedly got cold feet at the last moment and quit the project. Fifty Shades of Grey was followed by Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, which grossed $380 million and $370 million worldwide, respectively. Both movies were directed byJames Foleyand produced on reported budgets of $55 million. Like the first installment, the sequels were critically panned, with both receiving 11% scores on Rotten Tomatoes. With Fifty Shades of Darker‘s 25% score, it would seem like the franchise peaked too soon. Both Johnson and Dornan have gone on to establish themselves as successful actors whose identities are rarely connected to the trilogy anymore. You can watch all three movies on Netflix, but only until June 1. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
