Today is the release of Amazon Prime Videos’ The Voyeurs. This is an erotic thriller written and directed by Michael Mohan. This type of subgenre doesn’t often see mainstream attention. Often because studios are careful with heavily sexualized characters and stories. They are especially because of audiences that are heavily critical about them being too sexual. But with The Voyeurs Amazon is taking a chance to see how audiences react to a film like this. Testing the boundaries of how much we are comfortable within our films.

The Voyeurs follows a Pippa and Thomas, a new age couple that is moving in together. As they settle in they realize that they can see right into one of their neighbor’s apartments. Thus being able to watch them have sex with each other. As well as to witness infidelity. While fun at first this starts to cause a rift between the two and leads them down a dark path of lust and temptation.
