How many NC-17 titles do you own?

Just curious. I have one title (Bent). Another one is on the way. We're not talking "Not Rated" titles. The official NC-17 rating.

Eh, I forgot about the Almodovar set, so:

Bent
Matador
Law of Desire
Bad Education
The Dreamers (on order)

That's how it's listed on DVDProfiler. I guess I should drag it out and see.

Strongly agree.

In the Realm of the Senses is the only one I own (Though a ton of my "Unrated"s could qualify)

According to IMDB, Evil Dead is NC-17.

So I guess:

Beyond the Valley of the Dolls
Crash
The Evil Dead
Orgazmo
RoboCop
Showgirls

I am interested in picking up Last Tango in Paris and Bad Lieutenant, although on the latter I might wait until the remake is out because I'm sure Lionsgate will head to the well again on that one if they can.

I don't have anything that I can think of that's marked NC-17. I have a few titles that were originally considering NC-17 like: Boondock Saints, A Clockwork Orange etc but have been changed since.

If you want to count it, I've got the Criterion of RoboCop as well.

Orgazmo as it's the only one listed with the NC-17.

Now unrated films which would've have received an X or NC-17, on the other hand...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NC-17_rated_films

Most NC17 films released on DVD are bypassed with a Not rated or Unrated specification anyway.

The only NC17 film I own with that stamped upon it is Lust, Caution. Otherwise, there are a few from the wiki-list that I could add.

What would be more interesting to know is if films such as Robocop, A Clockwork Orange, Boondock Saints et al. would still merit an NC-17 theater if they were released recently.

I consider the Unrated Roboop an NC-17 because it was the original cut, rated X at the time, but had to be trimmed to receive an R.

Beyond the Valley of the Dolls
Crash (Cronenberg)
A Dirty Shame
Female Trouble
Grindhouse (Japanese release)
Henry & June
Inside Deep Throat
Last Tango in Paris
Law of Desire
Lust, Caution
Man Bites Dog
Matador

those are the official ones. A lot of the ones on that wikipedia list that I have are "rating surrendered", which I guess doesn't meet the criteria of this thread.
