Theatrical movies and television features distort aggravated rape and neglect simple rape, thereby compromising the integrity of real sexual assaults. A collection of 26 movies indicated three categories of rape as entertainment: the classics which subordinate rape to a significant drama, docudramas/melodramas which mingle fact with fiction and require substantiation, and exploitation films which use rape gratuitously. Movie rape remains difficult to judge given a film's subjectivity and its potential to dramatize sexual myths about rape deceptively.
