History ParentalIncest / LiveActionFilms

* ''Film/GoodDick'': One of the characters is a survivor of the father/daughter type.

* ''Savage Grace'': The film focuses largely on the real-life incestuous relationship between heiress Barbara Daly Baekeland and her son.

* ''Film/JupiterAscending'': The several millennia-old Titus Abrasax tries to force Jupiter Jones, the reincarnation of his mother, to marry him. [[spoiler:However, while he does creepily try to charm her, he only wants to marry her so he can be her heir, then immediately kill her to get the inheritance.]]

* ''Film/AguirreTheWrathOfGod'': Just after [[spoiler:his crew is dead]] Aguirre declares that he'll marry his daughter and found a new 'pure' dynasty. It's evidence of his looming madness ... hopefully, and not something he planned all along.
* ''Film/AnAmericanHaunting'': It turns out that [[spoiler:the "ghost" haunting the house is actually a psychic phenomenon caused unconsciously by the daughter's trauma of being raped by her father. In scenes set in the modern day the daughter's ghost appears to a mother whose daughter, it turns out in the end, is also being molested by her father]].
* ''Film/AmericanNightmare1983'': While reviewing the a series of video tapes, the protagonist Eric Blake is horrified to discover that one of them appears to show his sister Isabelle engaging in sexual acts with his father Hamilton. When he confronts him on the subject, he learns that the affair began shortly after their mother's death. Disgusted, he threatens to publicly expose the affair between them, prompting Hamilton to [[DrivenToSuicide commit suicide]].
* ''Film/AngelHeart'': The [[spoiler:lead character]] accidentally sleeps with his own daughter as a result of a years-long plot orchestrated by a manipulative villain.
* ''An Awfully Big Adventure'': Alan Rickman's character P.L. O'Hara deflowers his daughter. In all fairness, though, not only did he not know she was his kid, she didn't know it, either, and it's implied that she never found out. O'Hara, on the other hand, did, and drowned himself because of it.

* ''Film/BlackSwan'': Implied between [[spoiler:Nina and her mother]]. Fan debate rages heavily.
* ''Film/{{Brimstone}}'': The Reverend is Elizabeth's father, and the reason she ran away from his was because he "married" her against her will following her mother's death. [[spoiler:At the end of the movie, he declares his intent to top his previous crime by killing Elizabeth and raping his granddaughter.]]

* ''Film/{{Chinatown}}'': Features father/daughter incest in an infamous reveal about Mrs. Evelyn Mulwray and a woman named Katherine who Jake Gittes took to be the mistress of Mulwray's late husband. Katherine turns out to actually be the sister ''and'' the daughter of Mrs. Mulwray because Mrs. Mulwray was raped by her father, [[spoiler:Noah Cross]]. [[spoiler:Noah]] crosses the MoralEventHorizon even ''further'' when [[spoiler:at the end, when, after Mrs. Mulwray is killed, he forcibly takes Katherine, his daughter/granddaughter, into his car, implying he wants to do the exact same thing to her.]] Evelyn Mulwray was going to be played by Creator/AnjelicaHuston, Creator/JohnHuston's real-life daughter, as an utterly perverse CastingGag.

* ''Clara's Heart'': Part of TheReveal about Creator/WhoopiGoldberg's character is that [[spoiler:she was raped by her son, who then killed himself]].
* ''Film/CrimsonPeak'': Implied as part of Lucille Sharp's backstory. Lucille drives an ongoing incestuous relationship with her brother, which began before he was twelve and she was fourteen (and she murdered their mother to keep said relationship secret). The novelization also reveals that she had poisoned their abusive father; this fact, coupled with the fact that she initiated a sexual relationship with her pre-teen brother, suggests that Sir John Sharpe may have been molesting her.
* ''Film/TheDamned1969'': Helmut Berger's character, Martin, has an unhealthy love/hate relationship with his mother, which culminates with a sex scene that he initiates. Afterward, [[spoiler:the mother falls into a catatonic state and is then pushed to commit suicide by her son.]] Even if it doesn't really qualify as parental incest, Martin [[spoiler:is also a paedophile and it is implied that he molests his little cousin.]]

* ''Film/EvesBayou'': Whether or not a "mild" form of this occurred is the central focus of the film. [[spoiler:The theatrical release makes it more explicit that Cisely kissed her father and he stopped her, while the director's cut leaves it ambiguous who initiated the kiss.]]

* ''Film/FreddysDeadTheFinalNightmare'': Freddy takes the form of the [[AbusiveParents sexually abusive father]] of Tracy, and demands that she give him some "honey". [[spoiler:He also tries to "convert" his ACTUAL daughter [[FaceHeelTurn to his side of things]], and whether intentional or not on his part he's just as skeevy in his advancements on her.]] Flashbacks to when he was still alive were deliberately vague in whether he had the same murderous intent with his daughter as with the other kids on Elm Street, or if [[EvenEvilHasStandards she was the one exception]] and he just couldn't help being creepy around her.

* ''Film/GirlInterrupted'': This has secretly being going on with [[spoiler:inmate Daisy, and when [[LackOfEmpathy Lisa]] calls her out on it and tells her ''everyone'' knew about it, [[DespairEventHorizon it drives Daisy to commit suicide]].]]

* ''Film/IStandAlone'': The main character (who's nicknamed "The Butcher") has sexual feelings for his mentally handicapped daughter. In the finale [[spoiler:the Butcher has sex with his daughter before killing her and himself, this ends up being an imagined scenario and he puts his gun away. However, he makes it clear that he is going to act on his urges, as he believes he is doing her a favor.]]
* ''Inugami'' (a Japanese film): The main character eventually discovers that the older woman he's been sleeping with was his mother, and that his father [[spoiler:was his uncle]]. It doesn't end well.

* ''Film/JupiterAscending'': The several millenniums old Titus Abrasax tries to force Jupiter Jones, the reincarnation of his mother, to marry him. [[spoiler:However, while he does creepily try to charm her, he only wants to marry her so he can be her heir, then immediately kill her to get the inheritance.]]

* ''Murmur of the Heart'' (a French film): The main character (a 15-year-old) and his mother have a one night stand. They decide to treasure it and never bring it up again.
* ''Film/NannyMcPhee'': {{Averted}} but PlayedForLaughs -- midway through the movie, they [[spoiler:pass the maid, Evangeline, off as one of Cedric's daughters]] to trick Great-Aunt Adelaide. At the end of the movie, when [[spoiler:Cedric and Evangeline]] decide to get married, the confused aunt lets out a shocked cry of "Incest!" before they explain the truth.

* ''Film/{{Oldboy|2003}}'': The [[spoiler:lead character]] accidentally sleeps with his own daughter as a result of a years-long plot orchestrated by a manipulative villain.
* ''Film/{{Orphan}}'': The original screenplay used this in Esther[[spoiler:/Leena Klammer]]'s FreudianExcuse. She was sexually abused by her father [[spoiler:all the way from infancy to adulthood, causing her body to be rendered permanently infertile before she was even out of diapers and for her to spend her entire life believing that sexual relations between fathers and daughters were completely normal]].

* ''Film/{{Precious}}: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire'': [[spoiler:The title character is raped by her father, resulting in two children and HIV. The first child has Down's Syndrome.]] And it's strongly implied that [[spoiler:Precious's mother forces her to "take care of her" (i.e., perform oral sex on her) because she feels that her daughter drove her boyfriend off and, as she says, "Who was gonna love me?"]]

* ''Film/RebelWithoutACause'': subverted, in that the attempts to deny even the appearance of incest destroy the normal expressions of affection. Judy's father refuses to show affection for her, stating that she's "getting too old for that kind of stuff", and when she kisses him, he slaps her.

* ''The Savage Is Loose'': The film is a 1974 vanity production from Creator/GeorgeCScott about a couple shipwrecked on an island with their infant son. As the boy grows from toddler to puberty, he spies on his parents making love. As a young adult, he is suddenly competing with his dad for his own mother for the sake of lust. After getting rid of dad, the boy returns to conquest mom, only he can't bring himself to it. Dad returns and the film ends with a PowerOfLove message. The film was critically reviled for its overtone of parental incest to the point where Scott sent out bulk messages to movie theaters entreating patrons to see the film as a message of the bonding of a child with his parents.

* ''Film/{{Soapdish}}'' (a movie that parodies soap operas): Narrowly averted. Celeste, a soap opera superstar, starts acting... suspiciously when her former lover and co-star Jeffrey takes her niece Lori on a date. Later, when he's about to kiss Lori, Celeste completely freaks out, tearfully revealing that [[spoiler:Lori is actually their daughter whom she gave up when she was born under pressure from the television studio.]] Naturally, everyone [[LampshadeHanging starts remarking]] on how this is very much like the plot of a soap opera.

* ''Film/TheStrangeThingAboutTheJohnsons'': The titular "strange thing" is that the son is raping his father. [[spoiler:Albeit at the end the son claims that the father instigated it]].

* ''Film/ThreeSeatsForThe26th'': In this French film starring Creator/YvesMontand as himself and buxom sex bomb Mathilda May as his illegitimate daughter Marion (a character created for the movie, not based on any real person), they meet and, not knowing that they are parent and child, feel attracted to each other and eventually have sex. TheReveal comes when Marion's mom tells her that Montand is her biological father. Marion isn't shocked or anything, she just makes an "oopsie!" face. Later, the two go tell Montand the truth. Montand, unlike Marion, '''is''' shocked, and looks at her daughter with a horrified face... but Marion just smiles and shrugs, which makes Montand relax and realize that Parental Incest is no such a big deal after all. They all become a happy family.
* ''Film/TrilogyOfTerror'': The ''Millicent and Therese'' segment is about two sisters who hate each other. Millicent claims that Therese seduced their father when she was sixteen. [[spoiler:Since Millicent and Therese are actually [[SplitPersonality the same person]], it's likely that this is an... uncharitable interpretation of what actually happened.]]

* ''Unspeakable'' (2000 indie film): [[spoiler:James Fhelleps loses his teenage daughter in a car wreck, then goes on a killing spree when he thinks his daughter is talking to him through a dead hooker, pleading with him to save her. After this ends in his death, it turns out to be a dream, caused by guilt over his incestuous molestation of his daughter.]]
* ''Film/{{Volver}}'' (by Pedro Almodovar): The film has AttemptedRape by Paco towards Paula. [[spoiler:Later, we learn that poor Paula was conceived in a manner similar to Katherine from ''Film/{{Chinatown}}'']].

* ''Film/{{Womb}}'': A woman impregnates herself with the embryonic clone of her dead lover, brings him up to adulthood, and proceed to have a sexual relationship with him again. Technically, it is not incest as the "parent" and "child" do not share any DNA.

** Marty [=McFly=] has to deal with the romantic attentions of his own '50s-era mother in ''Film/BackToTheFuture'' after unwittingly recreating the events which led her to fall in love with his father. Marty then has to get his mother and father together so that he isn't erased from history before trying to get back home to his own time. It's not actually as bad as it could have been, though when she kisses Marty (much to his horror), she says that it's like kissing her ''brother'' (in the novelization, it's instead "kissing my father").

* The inbred family of the ''Film/WrongTurn'' movies are prime examples of this. We even get to see one of them give birth in the [[Film/WrongTurn2DeadEnd second movie]], which spawns a very deformed member of the family.
* In Aleksandr Sokurov's film ''Father and Son'', Aleksey and his father's relationship is about as uncomfortable as it gets without actually doing the deed. This l includes [[BigBallOfViolence homoerotic smackdowns]] and [[NotWhatItLooksLike almost-naked caressing]].
* The main character of ''Film/IStandAlone'' (who's nicknamed "The Butcher"), has sexual feelings for his mentally handicapped daughter. In the finale [[spoiler:the Butcher has sex with his daughter before killing her and himself, this ends up being an imagined scenario and he puts his gun away. However, he makes it clear that he is going to act on his urges, as he believes he is doing her a favor.]]
* Implied between Jessica and her father in ''The Gift''
* Babs Johnson with her son in ''Film/PinkFlamingos''
--> 'Let mama make a gift to you! A gift that only a mother can give, a gift so special it will curse this house for years, a gift of supreme motherhood.'
* ''Film/TheGrifters''. Implied until the end [[spoiler:when indeed the mother's lust comes out into the open with tragic results.]]
* ''Savage Grace''. The film focuses largely on the real-life incestuous relationship between heiress Barbara Daly Baekeland and her son.
* ''Film/ThreeSeatsForThe26th'', a French movie where Creator/YvesMontand plays himself and buxom sex bomb Mathilda May plays his illegitimate daughter Marion (a character created for the movie, not based on any real person). They meet and, not knowing that they are parent and child, feel attracted to each other and eventually have sex. TheReveal comes when Marion's mom tells her that Montand is her biological father. Marion isn't shocked or anything, she just makes an "oopsie!" face. Later, the two go tell Montand the truth. Montand, unlike Marion, '''is''' shocked, and looks at her daughter with a horrified face... but Marion just smiles and shrugs, which makes Montand relax and realize that Parental Incest is no such a big deal after all. They all become a happy family.
* Similarly, in the French ''Murmur of the Heart'', eventually, the main character (a 15-year-old) and his mother have a one night stand. They decide to treasure it and never bring it up again.
* ''Film/{{Chinatown}}'' featured Father/Daughter incest in an infamous reveal about Mrs. Evelyn Mulwray and a woman named Katherine who Jake Gittes took to be the mistress of Mulwray's late husband. Katherine turns out to actually be the sister ''and'' the daughter of Mrs. Mulwray because Mrs. Mulwray was raped by her father, [[spoiler:Noah Cross]]. [[spoiler:Noah]] crosses the MoralEventHorizon even ''further'' when [[spoiler:at the end, when, after Mrs. Mulwray is killed, he forcibly takes Katherine, his daughter/granddaughter, into his car, implying he wants to do the exact same thing to her.]] Evelyn Mulwray was going to be played by Creator/AnjelicaHuston, Creator/JohnHuston's real-life daughter, as an utterly perverse CastingGag.
** Spoofed in a cutaway on ''WesternAnimation/TheClevelandShow'', where Cleveland mentions a remake of ''Film/{{Chinatown}}'' with Music/MileyCyrus reenacting the famous "She's my sister ''and'' my daughter" scene.
** Also spoofed in E!'s ''100 Shocking Moments In Entertainement'' Countdown. When they bring up ''Chinatown'', they play the iconic scene between Jake and Evelyn... and then one of the commentators is seen slapping himself and screaming "Mother! Father! Sister! Brother!" several times before he gives his opinions on it.
* Father/Daughter happens to Forrest's love interest Jenny in ''Film/ForrestGump'', not that Forrest understands it. Her dad was "a very loving man, always touching and kissing Jenny and her sisters".
* ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture''
** Marty [=McFly=] has to deal with the romantic attentions of his own '50s-era mother in ''Film/BackToTheFuture'' after unwittingly recreating the events which led her to fall in love with his father. Marty then has to get his mother and father together so that he isn't erased from history before trying to get back home to his own time. It's not actually as bad as it could have been, though when she kisses Marty (much to his horror), she says that it's like kissing her ''brother''.

* ''Film/BillAndTedsExcellentAdventure'', though it was never pursued beyond a few "Dude, your mom's hot!" "Shut up!" exchanges and Bill eventually telling Sigmund Freud that he has a "slight Oedipal complex". Of course, "mom" was actually a stepmother only a few years older than her stepson, not his birth mother. And, of course, Missy ends up divorcing him and marrying ''Ted'''s dad at the start of the sequel ''Film/BillAndTedsBogusJourney'', followed by the BigBad De Nomolos in the closing credits, then by former stepson Deacon (Ted's younger brother) in ''Film/BillAndTedFaceTheMusic''.
* ''Film/{{Oldboy|2003}}'' and ''Film/AngelHeart'' both have [[spoiler:lead characters]] who accidentally sleep with their own daughters as a result of years-long plots orchestrated by a manipulative villain.
* The mother and son cat-people villains in Creator/StephenKing's film ''Film/{{Sleepwalkers}}''. They're apparently the last of their kind, though.
* ''Film/SweeneyToddTheDemonBarberOfFleetStreet'': While she's not his biological daughter, Judge Turpin wanting to marry his adopted daughter Johanna (with all that entails) certainly qualifies. Turpin also had a serious lust toward Johanna's mother, Sweeney's wife, which set the entire plot in motion with the awful things he did in pursuit of it.
* The French film ''Ma Mère'' has a very complicated incestuous relationship between a mother and her son.
* And let's not forget the infamous "bath scene" in Creator/PiaZadora's [[SoBadItsGood classic]] ''Butterfly''.
* In the (in)famous indie film ''Film/SpankingTheMonkey'', a drunken assignation between the lead character and his mother leads to [[spoiler:him leaving home at the end.]]
* ''Film/RebelWithoutACause'': subverted, in that the attempts to deny even the appearance of incest destroy the normal expressions of affection. Judy's father refuses to show affection for her, stating that she's "getting too old for that kind of stuff", and when she kisses him, he slaps her.
* An early version of ''Film/JasonGoesToHellTheFinalFriday'' revealed that Jason and his mother regularly had sex with each other, with this revelation even having an accompanying flashback of them doing it.
* In Japanese film ''Inugami'', the main character eventually discovers that the older woman he's been sleeping with was his mother, and that his father [[spoiler:was his uncle]]. It doesn't end well.
* Pedro Almodovar's ''Film/{{Volver}}'' has AttemptedRape by Paco towards Paula. [[spoiler:Later, we learn that poor Paula was conceived in a manner similar to Katherine from ''Film/{{Chinatown}}'']].
** Some supplementary material states Freddy once beat and raped his mother.
* In ''Film/TheQuiet'', Elisha Cuthbert's character has an incestuous relationship with her father.
* The main female character of ''Film/NaturalBornKillers'' is molested by her father. It's played like a sitcom, to make you extra uncomfortable.
* The romantic interest in Aussie film ''Film/RomperStomper'' is also molested by her dad.
* In ''Film/{{Dogma}}'', while not specifically stated, it is suggested by the following exchange:

* In ''An Awfully Big Adventure'', Alan Rickman's character P.L. O'Hara deflowers his daughter. In all fairness, though, not only did he not know she was his kid, she didn't know it, either, and it's implied that she never found out. O'Hara, on the other hand, did, and drowned himself because of it.
* ''Film/SeventeenAgain2009'': Mike's ''daughter'' briefly falls for him, not knowing that he is her dad. Thankfully, it doesn't go any further than that.
* In ''Film/AnAmericanHaunting'', it turns out that [[spoiler:the "ghost" haunting the house is actually a psychic phenomenon caused unconsciously by the daughter's trauma of being raped by her father. In scenes set in the modern day the daughter's ghost appears to a mother whose daughter, it turns out in the end, is also being molested by her father]].
* In ''Film/TheDamned1969'' Helmut Berger's character, Martin, has an unhealthy love/hate relationship with his mother, which culminates with a sex scene that he initiates. Afterward, [[spoiler:the mother falls into a catatonic state and is then pushed to commit suicide by her son.]] Even if it doesn't really qualify as parental incest, Martin [[spoiler:is also a paedophile and it is implied that he molests his little cousin.]]
* In Peter Greenaway's ''8 1/2 Women'', Philip, while mourning his late wife, wakes up in bed with his adult son Storey; from the pillow talk viewers are to understand that something sexual happened between them. The father is horrified; the son is alarmingly eager to rationalize it. After this, the two men fill the house with a group of mistresses, but the [[OedipusComplex Oedipal]] implications... pale by comparison.
* Played for ''laughs'' (yes, laughs) in ''Film/HistoryOfTheWorldPartI'':

* In the movie of ''Film/TankGirl'', the titular character makes a joke about how "It's like the first time you get laid! You gotta say, '"Daddy, are you sure this is right?'"
* In ''Film/{{Precious}}: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire'' [[spoiler:the title character is raped by her father, resulting in two children and HIV. The first child has Down's Syndrome.]] And it's strongly implied that [[spoiler:Precious's mother forces her to "take care of her" (i.e., perform oral sex on her) because she feels that her daughter drove her boyfriend off and, as she says, "Who was gonna love me?"]]
* The ''Film/BlackChristmas2006'' remake has a flashback sequence that reveals Mrs. Lenz, drunk one night and obsessed with having another child, went up to [[MadmanInTheAttic the attic where her son Billy was kept]] and raped him. She wound up giving birth to a daughter named Agnes nine months later.
* In the indie film ''Unspeakable'', [[spoiler:James Fhelleps loses his teenage daughter in a car wreck, then goes on a killing spree when he thinks his daughter is talking to him through a dead hooker, pleading with him to save her. After this ends in his death, it turns out to be a dream, caused by guilt over his incestuous molestation of his daughter.]]
* According to Danny Butterman in ''Film/HotFuzz'', [[DumbMuscle Michael "Lurch" Armstrong's]] mother and sister are one and the same. Implicitly, this is why Lurch is mentally handicapped.
%%* ''Film/TwinPeaksFireWalkWithMe''.
* In ''The Goddess of 1967'', [[spoiler:Deidre is the product of this. Perhaps that's why she's blind...]]
* This is hinted at or added subtextually to several of the ''Franchise/{{Hellraiser}}'' films:
** The lurking phantom of parental incest is all over the first two movies in the series, ''Film/{{Hellraiser}}'' and ''Film/HellboundHellraiserII''. "Come to daddy" and all that. There's no evidence that it actually happened, but the idea is pretty firmly put into viewers' heads.
** In ''Film/HellraiserIIIHellOnEarth'', Monroe's dialogue with Pinhead makes it pretty clear that he killed his parents [[RapeAsBackstory because they were molesting him]].
-->'''Film/Pinhead:''' That is the gun you used to kill your parents. Oh, what else could you do? They thought you were so tempting, their affections so conditional.
** Flashbacks in ''Film/HellraiserDeader'' implicate Amy was sexually abused by her father.
* ''Film/{{Splice}}'': [[spoiler:Dren with both of her/his parents, although technically Clive is only a step-parent, at best.]]
* In the ''Millicent and Therese'' segment of ''Film/TrilogyOfTerror'', about two sisters who hate each other, Millicent claims that Therese seduced their father when she was sixteen. [[spoiler:Since Millicent and Therese are actually [[SplitPersonality the same person]], it's likely that this is an ... uncharitable interpretation of what actually happened.]]

* In ''Film/YearOne'', Zed rather casually admits to laying with his mother, although he does say he felt rather awkward about it in the morning.
* Not stated outright, but the possibility is certainly implied in ''Film/{{Psycho}}'', between Norman and his mother.
** In ''Film/PsychoIVTheBeginning'', this gets a bit more detail: she apparently teased him sexually in his adolescence and then punished him for his [[RagingStiffie natural reactions]]. As a result, he lusted after his mother and was jealous of her many boyfriends, and assumed the reverse was true, which resulted in a woman being knifed in the shower some 20 years after Mrs. Bates died. It is not clear if they ever consummated this or if he just had one hell of an Oedipus complex.
* {{Averted}} but PlayedForLaughs in ''Film/NannyMcPhee'': midway through the movie, they [[spoiler:pass the maid, Evangeline, off as one of Cedric's daughters]] to trick Great-Aunt Adelaide. At the end of the movie, when [[spoiler:Cedric and Evangeline]] decide to get married, the confused aunt lets out a shocked cry of "Incest!" before they explain the truth.
** It's even funnier when you remember Great-Aunt Adelaide is played by Creator/AngelaLansbury, who played Mrs. Iselin in the 1962 adaptation of ''Literature/TheManchurianCandidate''.
* Part of TheReveal about Creator/WhoopiGoldberg's character in ''Clara's Heart'' is that [[spoiler:she was raped by her son, who then killed himself]].
* Implied between [[spoiler:Nina and her mother]] in ''Film/BlackSwan''. Fan debate rages heavily.
* In ''Film/FreddysDeadTheFinalNightmare'', Freddy takes the form of the [[AbusiveParents sexually abusive father]] of Tracy, and demands that she give him some "honey". [[spoiler:He also tries to "convert" his ACTUAL daughter [[FaceHeelTurn to his side of things]], and whether intentional or not on his part he's just as skeevy in his advancements on her.]] Flashbacks to when he was still alive were deliberately vague in whether he had the same murderous intent with his daughter as with the other kids on Elm Street, or if [[EvenEvilHasStandards she was the one exception]] and he just couldn't help being creepy around her.
* ''WesternAnimation/MeetTheRobinsons'': {{Averted}}/{{Inverted}}/generally weird example: [[spoiler:Through TimeTravel, Lewis is almost adopted by his own future wife]]. She looks understandably disturbed when she realizes who he is, though.
* This is pretty common in Creator/TylerPerry's movies, because of the fact that he experienced this as a child.
* ''Film/AguirreTheWrathOfGod'': Just after [[spoiler:his crew is dead]] Aguirre declares that he'll marry his daughter and found a new 'pure' dynasty. It's evidence of his looming madness ... hopefully, and not something he planned all along.
* Whether or not a "mild" form of this occurred is the central focus of ''Film/EvesBayou''. [[spoiler:The theatrical release makes it more explicit that Cisely kissed her father and he stopped her, while the director's cut leaves it ambiguous who initiated the kiss.]]
* In ''Film/{{Machete}}'', Booth admits to Padre in {{Confessional}}s that he has feelings for his daughter April, and he's disturbed by this. Later, it is revealed that April and her mother June film {{Home Porn Movie}}s while he's away, lesbian scenes with each other and/or threesomes.
* In ''Film/{{Womb}}'', a woman impregnates herself with the embryonic clone of her dead lover, brings him up to adulthood, and proceed to have a sexual relationship with him again. Technically, it is not incest as the "parent" and "child" do not share any DNA.
* In ''Film/TheWhiteRibbon'' we see a father molesting his daughter.
* In ''Film/GoodDick,'' one of the characters is a survivor of the father/daughter type.
* ''Film/TheLovedOnes'': Although Lola and her father have never slept together, it is clear that both want to, Lola being the aggressor in this case. Unlike her, her father at least seems somewhat hesitant, and understandably so.
* In ''Film/GirlInterrupted'', this has secretly being going on with [[spoiler:inmate Daisy, and when [[LackOfEmpathy Lisa]] calls her out on it and tells her ''everyone'' knew about it, [[DespairEventHorizon it drives Daisy to commit suicide]].]]
* In ''Film/JupiterAscending'', the several millenniums old Titus Abrasax tries to force Jupiter Jones, the reincarnation of his mother, to marry him. [[spoiler:However, while he does creepily try to charm her, he only wants to marry her so he can be her heir, then immediately kill her to get the inheritance.]]
* ''Film/{{Society}}'': Bill is horrified to discover that his parents have been engaging in orgies with his sister. After he discovers that they're actually humanoid monsters who can distort their bodies, his sister even mockingly invites him to join in.
* The Australian movie ''Film/BadBoyBubby'' depicts a mother having sex with her simple-minded son who doesn't know any better.
* ''Film/FaustLoveOfTheDamned'': It turns out that "M" had possessed Jade's father in the past to molest her as a child, in order to indoctrinate her so "M" could later impregnate her as an adult with his demonic spawn. She can only recall traumatic flashes of a faceless man having his way with her.
* ''Film/{{Brimstone}}'': The Reverend is Elizabeth's father, and the reason she ran away from his was because he "married" her against her will following her mother's death. [[spoiler:At the end of the movie, he declares his intent to top his previous crime by killing Elizabeth and raping his granddaughter.]]
* Narrowly averted in ''Film/{{Soapdish}}'', a movie that parodies soap operas. Celeste, a soap opera superstar, starts acting... suspiciously when her former lover and co-star Jeffrey takes her niece Lori on a date. Later, when he's about to kiss Lori, Celeste completely freaks out, tearfully revealing that [[spoiler:Lori is actually their daughter whom she gave up when she was born under pressure from the television studio.]] Naturally, everyone [[LampshadeHanging starts remarking]] on how this is very much like the plot of a soap opera.

* ''Film/Malevolent2002'': The killer's backstory involves a sexually abusive mother who was also the TrophyWife to a wealthy businessman. In addition, she was rumored to have been in a relationship with her own father.
* The titular ''[[Film/TheStrangeThingAboutTheJohnsons Strange Thing About the Johnsons]]'' is that the son is raping his father. [[spoiler:Albeit at the end the son claims that the father instigated it]].

As the boy grows from toddler to puberty, he spies on his parents making love. As a young adult, he is suddenly competing with his dad for his own mother for the sake of lust. After getting rid of dad, the boy returns to conquest mom, only he can't bring himself to it. Dad returns and the film ends with a PowerOfLove message. The film was critically reviled for its overtone of parental incest to the point where Scott sent out bulk messages to movie theaters entreating patrons to see the film as a message of the bonding of a child with his parents.
* ''Film/{{Orphan}}'': The original screenplay used this in Esther[[spoiler:/Leena Klammer]]'s FreudianExcuse. She was sexually abused by her father [[spoiler:all the way from infancy to adulthood, causing her body to be rendered permanently infertile before she was even out of diapers and for her to spend her entire life believing that sexual relations between fathers and daughters were completely normal]].

* Implied as part of Lucille Sharp's backstory in ''Film/CrimsonPeak''. Lucille drives an ongoing incestuous relationship with her brother, which began before he was twelve and she was fourteen (and she murdered their mother to keep said relationship secret). The novelization also reveals that she had poisoned their abusive father; this fact, coupled with the fact that she initiated a sexual relationship with her pre-teen brother, suggests that Sir John Sharpe may have been molesting her.

* ''Film/DontLook'': Kelley and his daughter Sherri Baby reveal they're in this sort of relationship by making out right in front of the group, much to their shock.
* ''Film/AmericanNightmare1983'': While reviewing the a series of video tapes, the protagonist Eric Blake is horrified to discover that one of them appears to show his sister Isabelle engaging in sexual acts with his father Hamilton. When he confronts him on the subject, he learns that the affair began shortly after their mother's death. Disgusted, he threatens to publicly expose the affair between them, prompting Hamilton to [[DrivenToSuicide commit suicide]].
* ''Film/TheQuiet'': Nina and her dad. He's been molesting Nina for some time when the story starts.

** It's even funnier when you remember Great-Aunt Adelaide is played by Creator/AngelaLansbury, who played Mrs. Iselin in the original ''Film/TheManchurianCandidate''.

* Heavily implied in ''Film/TheManchurianCandidate'' as part of the MoreThanMindControl of the title character, but the Hays Code wouldn't let them say it outright.
** The original novel was much more explicit about this, hence the film's notoriety even ''before'' the Kennedy assassinations.
** Strangely, the '60s version with the Hays Code in full force was actually ''more'' explicit with this than the later remake. That was '''not''' a motherly kiss.

* ''Film/SeventeenAgain'': Mike's ''daughter'' briefly falls for him, not knowing that he is her dad. Thankfully, it doesn't go any further than that.
