Ah, the “blink and you missed it” anus. I do think it’s good that, if it is to be the first, Sherilyn Fenn’s anus was the first. If her anus is as cute as the rest of her, it’s starting off on the right … cheek …?

Indecent Behavior if I recall is an “erotic thriller” which kind of treads the boundary between mainstream and softcore. I don’t know if I would consider softcore porn mainstream in the sense in which the OP uses it, but then again, erotic thrillers do have a way of blurring those lines. I mean, probalby “Body of Evidence” would be considered by most to be a mainstream movies, as would “Bound” and, well … “Two Moon Junction” and I’m not sure you could come up with a definition that would include those movies in the mainstream and exclude “Indecent Behavior.”

I will have to take a principled stand of having no idea if “Indecent Behavior” can be considered a mainstream movie or not.

Mmmmm…zombie anus.

Forgive me; I’ve never gotten to do this before. (no, not zombie anus…no, not that I’ve done zombie anus before.)

According to Kevin Smith and Ralph Garmin on their Hollywood Babble-on podcast, you can see Anne Heche’s butthole very briefly in the \*Psycho \*remake from 1998. I have not seen the movie myself.

From the original **Psycho** , Janet Leigh told her own story of this same fundimental issue. For the shower scene, she took a trick from the ecdysiasts and attached a figure-8-shaped piece of flesh-colored adhesive moleskin from her tailbone to her pubic bone.

Nonetheless, the shoot attracted as many memeber of the crews to the set’s overhead lighting structure as it would bear. While holding the pose of her dead draped belly-down over the edge of the tub, she felt the moleskin slowly peeling away under the shower, until she and the crew were staring at each other, as it were.

Fundimental issue. I see what you did there!

There was a clear shot of Eleanor James in Forest of the Damned, which is not even  
an erotic movie.

I’ve started watching Downton Abbey, and it struck me that in this exceptionally classy and well-mannered show, the opening shot of every episode is a dog’s ass.
