I genuinely can't think of any off the top of my head. I know i've seen some but not spring to mind.

I thought that Rik, so opted for "incest as a theme in films", just to be on the safe side.

There is a surprisingly large amount of films i wouldn't have thought of.

Also some films feature the subject unintentionally such as the original "Star Wars" where in retrospect from the reveal in later films, Luke and Leia's early relationship is slightly dubious.

I always think the original "Back to the future" is quite subversive in it's mum lusting after her son subplot.

I had a mental list of films that I thought would qualify but hadn't researched prior to putting up the post this morning, and looking on Google and the various lists which people and places have compiled means I'm now spoiled for choice!

INCEST FILMS
  1. Oldboy
  2. Crimson Peak
  3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009)
  4. Angel Heart
  5. Vixen!
  6. Cat People (1982)
  7. The People Under the Stairs
  8. Flesh for Frankenstein
  9. The Black Dahlia
  10. The Dreamers

Nearly making it:
  • Bad Boy Bubby
  • Island of Death
  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)
  • Precious
  • Maps to the Stars
  • The Blue Lagoon
  • Tromeo and Juliet
  • Festen
  • Caligula

I would have liked to include Chinatown, Pink Flamingos and The Hills Have Eyes but didn't feel the incest theme was strong enough, being only implied or a very minor element in the film.

My main list may change in six months or so because I've ordered (and received) Dogtooth, The Quiet, Flowers in the Attic, The War Zone, Beautiful Kate and Close My Eyes.
