Gangbangs portrayed in non-porn films

Elia Kazan's Splendor in the Grass (1961) with Barbara Loden, Natalie Wood, Warren Beatty. Loden would eventually marry director Kazan and she directed and starred in a well-reviewed independent film Wanda (1971)

^wow that seems progressive for 1961!

The Accused with Jodie Foster

Last Exit To Brooklyn.

There is no gangbang in Splendor in the Grass.

R5 Beatty's sister Ginny in the backseat of a car during a party and Beatty breaks it up.

Leaving Las Vegas - anal gang rape

Buster and Billie (1974) with Jan Michael Vincent and Joan Goodfellow

Interesting... I sorta suspected movies would be more ok with showing violent signs of this kind of thing ("it's drama!") but ever any like fun, consensual stuff?

Last Exit to Brooklyn is brutal, I’ve never been able to go back and watch that film again as much as I want to see Jennifer Jadon Leigh’s performance.

R9 the gang bang sequence in Splendor in the Grass was consensual.

Intolerance. Silent gang bang.

Midnight Cowboy

Betty Paige

Technically, only one guy rapes Ed Norton in American History X. The gang is just there to help and watch.

1:09.07

Many "Gangbangs" happen in a prison setting.

The Baby of Macon tops them all.

Wasn't there a gang bang in a club in "Cruising"?

Saturday Night Fever (though the scene, in the back of a car, doesn't start out that way)

I spit on your grave

There was not a gangbang scene in Splendor.......at least I don't remember it that way.

It's so interesting to me how many of these are rape scenes. To me a gangbang is a consensual thing, a gang rape is a completely different thing. I genuinely mean that this is interesting how people interpret it.

Ally Sheedy in Bad Boys

A gang bang is a bunch of guys fucking one person.

An orgy is everyone having sex with everyone else.

They are different things.

It’s hard to have a rape orgy, but gang bang rapes are pretty common.

1961s West Side Story came close to having a literal gang rape when the Jets tried to have their way with Anita (Rita Moreno)

^Part of the reason I was thinking about this I think was I was wondering... "do gangbangs actually happen that much in real life?" Because they're not even portrayed in the movies it seems, and the movies aren't real life, but you'd think they'd make an appearance there, if that makes sense.

I mean, I know they happen occasionally. Rugby boys are big on them in my country. In fact, I remember a controversy around it not that long ago and some player said something like: "We shouldn't judge gay men for being gay and we shouldn't just rugby players for liking a 'bun'" which was strange logic, but I just remember how kinda open it was that this was a bonding thing done in rugby clubs.

But like, I never hear of it happening among the straight guys I know. The most is two of them with one girl.

Where are all these real life gang bangs happening that people keep mentioning? Asking for a friend...

Haha R27. I'd be curious too ;)

Isn’t there gang rape in Fortune in Men’s Eyes?

R21 well Pauline Kael did "it's the old corn but fermented by Kazan in a new way-with lots of screaming, a gang bang sequence, and blood and beatings . . ." I saw the film on TV as a kid and understood what was going on.

Boogie Nights has the wife of a movie PAs getting gang banged in the driveway during a house party.

Marty's rape on One Life To Live

American History X.

Boyz N The Hood had lots of gangbangs!

[quote] There is no gangbang in Splendor in the Grass.

They were thinking of its porn parody, Splendor in the Ass.

Ahhh R31 is that the "you're embarrassing me?" part? I haven't seen Boogie Nights but I'm vaguely familiar. That woman was a real porn actress wasn't she? And yeah, ok so this is the second gangbang scene in a mainstream film found so far. Makes sense in a movie like Boogie Nights too.

Sophia Loren and Eleonora Brown, "Two Women" (1960)

The whore in 8 1/2 takes the boys one after another but it’s not a group effort.

Heaven's Gate

A Clockwork Orange

Showgirls

Pixote

Titus

Troy

R38, I thought she just danced with them, didn't she? Am I dumb and that was meant to be a euphemism?

I don’t know what is was called, but there was a TV movie that was done about the sports team, maybe Lacrosse, in Glen Ridge, NJ, where they all assaulted a young woman with mental disabilities.

In The Last American Virgin they run a train on the slutty lady Gary delivers a pizza to but they go one at a time instead of in the same room. But they all get crabs.

R42 here, it was called Our Guys: Outrage in Glen Ridge shown on ABC.

R43, The Last American Virgin was a remake of an Israeli film, do I have that right? I'm sure I saw an old Israeli film on television one night that was the exact same plot.

R45 yes it is. Lemon Popsicle is the film

Ahh grand, thanks R46, I didn't think I'd imagined it. It seemed almost scene for scene from what I remember.

Diverting into amateur, homemade porn for a moment, and speaking of gangbangs, I have noticed that Israeli lads are very keen for this and if you search Israeli you'll see multiple guys and one girl are very common, at least in what they upload. I wonder if it's something that's sort of a post-military service thing, blowing off steam, building up a bonding, type thing?

I Spit on Your Grave - it was endless and brutal

R47 fun fact. The director of the Israeli film also wrote and directed TLAV

^It wasn't a gangBANG though, was it, it was a gang rape. Gangbangs seem to be pretty uncommonly portrayed. Although looking around, there is a Dutch film called Flodder, where one girl lies in a bedroom while men line up outside at a party, and they get charged for their turn. It's a humorous scene, not a nasty one.

(sorry R50 was a response to R48).

Interesting, R49 and makes sense.

Jodi Foster won the Oscar as a woman who was raped. and raped and raped...in The Aroused. Claire Bloom was multiply deflowered in The Chapman Report. Richard Crenna was a cop who was gang banged by a gay biker gang in The Rape of Richard Beck.

Hollywood super gay and former Geffen boy Steve Antin was one of Jodie's rapists in The Accused and also one of the guys that runs a train in The Last American Virgin. I guess he likes those parts.

Back in the day it does seem like Antin was keen on getting his ass out.

Am I right or mistaken though that all the guys in The Accused were gay actors? The idea being it would be more comfortable for Jodie to film that scene?

I'd never heard that but it's possible. The fat guy looked kinda gay.

Yes, R36. Nina Hartley, an 80s superstar. Her scenes were always hot. She wasn't getting ganbanged tho. One guy was fucking her while a bunch of others just watched.

Yeah, I mean I sorta made that up, just thinking it through, but both Antin and Woody Brown are gay aren't they?

That's it, Nina Hartley R56! I remember she was interviewed by Ruby Wax when Ruby did an episode on the porn industry, and they referenced Boogie Nights then.

Woody Brown was kinda hot. He danced gay though

The Virgin Spring

R52, it was called The Accused, not The Aroused.

It would have been so weird if if had been called The Aroused.

[quote]It would have been so weird if if had been called The Aroused.

I'm totally going to hell, but I can't stop laughing at the thought of it being called The Aroused.

What kind of sicko thinks gang bangs are "edgy"??

"The Engorged"?

R64, it seems to me that a lot of writers have this juvenile idea of sex being "edgy" when I watch a lot of TV these days. I'm just surprised no one has done that with a gangbang for edginess. And just because I know there's confusion here, that's in terms of a consensual act.

[quote]Isn’t there gang rape in Fortune in Men’s Eyes?

1:55.

Spetters.

[quote] It would have been so weird if if had been called The Aroused.

I think many were aroused by the blonde guy and Steven Antin's ass.

Boys Don't Cry.

[quote]I think many were aroused by the blonde guy and Steven Antin's ass.

So awkward... but true.

Jodie's character should've thanked her lucky stars she was raped by some real lookers. They could've been Ron Jeremy clones.

The Antin ass

I like this shot.

I remember The Last American Virgin being on late night cable just after puberty hit and I realized I was into boys. Antin was a major component of my early teen development.

R72 the last one was a fat fuck

Can't find a clip of it, but anybody remember the gang rape flashback scene in "Beloved" where Oprah is screaming "They took my milk!". It is surreal as it sounds.

R74, that guy that is laughing while Antin shows his cock to them was in Friday the 13th Part 4 showing his ass too (and there's the hint of his balls swinging between his legs too).

And he's gay too!

R76, I said most, not all. But let's be real, I'm sure many would go home with him if they didn't find anybody else before last call.

We're having a gangbang, we're having a ball!

We're having a gangbang against the wall

We'd love you to join us, it's part of the fun

Oh, a gangbang is the thing to do, but it takes more than one

A gangbang is a game we play, it's something of a joke

It's lots of hokey-pokey, less hokes and lots of pokes

It's for the girls and for the boys, it livens up the night

It's better when you're crowded and when you're packed in tight

We're having a gangbang, we're having a ball!

We're having a gangbang against the wall

We'd love you to join us, it's part of the fun

Oh, a gangbang is the thing to do, but it takes more than one

And now the action's taking place, I'm ready for my fill

It's up to expectations and it's going further still

But don't be greedy, share it out, it's time to try some more

So find a friend, play the game, that's what a gangbang's for!

We're having a gangbang, we're having a ball!

A gangbang is the thing to do, we'd like to give you one! Oi!

In 1976's I Claudius the general BBC audience was offered the gangbang contest between Empress Messalina and the president of the Whore's guild.

Not a film, but there was a gang bang in the US version of Queer As Folk.

The Muppet Movie (1979)

That made me crack up laughing, R84.

R82, sounds like a fun challenge!

R84 Sure your not thinking of Meet the Feebles (1991)

Didn't Joan Allen star in a movie where she played a politician who might or might not have been gang banged? I haven't seen the film in so long I can't remember if she actually had sex with the guys.

Rings a bell, R87. Wasn't it just a rumour aimed at discrediting her? I'm so vague on the details.

R87 R88 Could it be The Contender (2000)?

Society in general has still a problem with sex and sex positivity. That is why Hollywood movies insist that something must be wrong with the people involved in a gang bang. That's why they are being shown as lurid, sort of rape scenarios with depraved individuals and a mentally challenged victim (because no normal person would agree to getting gang banged!).

I think one gang rape which has not yet been mentioned is the one of Ted on Showtime's Queer as Folk, where he is being filmed getting gang raped while being high on crystal meth.

Sorry, r83, missed your comment.

The Contender was a let down. The girl in the video had a birthmark that could've easily dispelled the accusation that it was her but Joan Allen didn't say anything.

There's one in Zoolander.

Deliverance (Squeal like a Pig) and Pulp Fiction (Get the gimp/Zed's dead)

Weird thread...

R89 yep that was it.

R95 This thread is normal by data lounge standards.

A gang bang was a plot point in Perfect.

The Glass House. Prison gang rape.

Dawson’s 50-Load Weekend

You know the OP is wanking it throughout the entire thread, right?

Perfectly put. I mean, even in this thread, most people are talking about gang rape scenes, not gangbang scenes, and literally can't seem to tell the difference.

Don't be ridiculous.
