    "9 1/2 Weeks"

    "9 1/2 Weeks" was the "Fifty Shades of Grey" of its time in 1986.

  4. "Dirty Dancing"

    "Dirty Dancing"

    It takes place in 1964, but the 1987 coming of age story can rival any movie for steamiest love scenes.

  5. "Flashdance"

    "Flashdance"

    A welder by day, a dancer by night … Jennifer Beals was both sexy and adorable in 1983's "Flashdance."

  6. "Risky Business"

    "Taking the train" took on a whole new meaning in this 1983 dark comedy about a wholesome teen and a call girl.

Julianne Hough couldn't get any hotter than she is right now. Not only does she have a huge movie ("Rock of Ages") hitting theaters today, the almost 24-year-old also has the curves to show for it.

"I actually changed my diet and exercise routine a little bit because in the 80s the women were not twig thin," Hough tells Hitfix.com, when asked how she prepared to play a stripper in the '80s rock movie. "They looked like they were 18 years old and they had curves. It was all real, you know? So I definitely beefed up some of my exercises and lifted weights. Yes, I am going to be in underwear on a pole and I definitely had to focus on that."

We'll say it again ... boyfriend Ryan Seacrest is a lucky guy. Sadly, her lap dance scene with Tom Cruise was cut out of the final edit. "The fact that movie audiences won’t get to see that is kind of upsetting," she told The New York Daily News. "But hey, I got to shoot it. Hopefully it’ll be on the DVD!"

Ignoring the small fact that it is now 2012, click through our slideshow and let us know: What's the sexiest '80s movie? (And yes, "Dirty Dancing" counts, too.)

    I picked this because it's the only one that I actually saw in the cinema and there's no "Other..." option.

    But what about...

    She's wrong there. I grew up in the 70's and 80's. I was bulimic because I was terrified of getting fat. In the movie "Ruthless People," Bette Midler's "fat" character was depicted as weighing 140 pounds. (Gasp!) I saw myself as "gargantuan" if I weighed an ounce over 110 pounds. It was crazy.
    Crash dieting, overexercising, and forcing myself to puke actually ruined my metabolism. I had to stop engaging in these practices (particularly the extreme dieting) in order to avoid getting fatter. Extreme low calorie dieting does not make you thinner in the long run, it screws your metabolism all to hell.
    Studies show that people who exercise moderately and eat well tend to be healthier REGARDLESS OF THEIR BODY TYPE!
    I'm glad that Julianne doesn't think she has to be twig thin. But she's wrong about the attitude towards women's bodies in the 1980's.
