A film which focuses on morbid, shocking elements such as torture, serial killing, cannibalism, and sex in a gratuitous and excessive fashion. For example, a crime movie which focuses more on the lurid details of committing the crime or its effects on the victim, rather than the police efforts to solve it. Or a movie that's excessively violent and gory beyond what's needed for the plot or theme. That — excessive violence or sexuality — seems to be the main elements of an exploitation film. "Raw", outrageous footage is the name of the game. Bonus points if the production has that "low-budget" feel to it, though it isn't strictly necessary.
In the past, such films were sometimes made featuring lurid scenes with the supposed intent to be educational, such as Reefer Madness, or purportedly educational films from The '60s about nudist colonies or sexual practices, which were just an excuse for nudity. Regardless of the purportedly educational intent, the lurid scenes were often meant to be the main source of entertainment.
In The '60s and The '70s, these films reached something of a Golden Age — perhaps in response to the "arty" mainstream films of the Hollywood Renaissance. This was the era of drive-in "grindhouse" double-features and limited releases touring around the country with crackly prints and at times missing reels. It was also the era of Blaxploitation films with gun-toting Black heroes.
It's sometimes debatable as to whether a given film is an Exploitation Film or not. If there's a heavy emphasis on plot and background detail, yet at the same time the visceral elements are emphasized and played up in detail, then people will disagree on whether or not it fits this category. For example, The Passion of the Christ goes into a ton of detail in watching Jesus be tortured. Yet, many churches were turning out in droves to see it, despite it being a film that consists of two hours of torture followed by the death of the lead character. Due to the movie's serious theme and background material, some argue that it isn't exploitation at all, since Jesus's torture was not intended for the audience's excitement, while others argue precisely the contrary.
That's part of the dividing line. Is the violence or sexuality in a movie gratuitous, meant largely for entertainment? Or is it used to enhance the plot or theme? Since The Girl Next Door is a fictionalized story based on a true crime involving a real girl who was systematically abused by her family, what is it? Is it exploitation because the story itself is fictionalized and involves made-up characters instead of literally retelling the story of the crime? And even if it did retell the story of the actual crime, would it still be exploitation?
Because one person's "gritty realistic drama" is another's "entertainingly realistic gritty exploitation", the line can sometimes be thin.
When these films are set in prisons, Artistic License – Prison is practically unavoidable. Those of the Girls Behind Bars genre (Black Mama, White Mama for example) feature inmates in absurdly short and/or low-cut uniforms that are all about the Fanservice. Real life prison uniforms throughout history are usually plain, drab and VERY far from flattering, let alone sexy.
Most exploitation films, by their nature, tend to be B-movies.
A Super-Trope to Blaxploitation, Cannibal Film, Mondo, and Nazisploitation.
Compare Video Nasties (moral panic about these films that occurred in Britain in The '80s), Gorn, Torture Porn, Euroshlock (which is commonly accused of this) and Murder Simulators (The latter is the video game version of this trope).

Child Bride (1938) was a rather infamous one back in the day. It was supposed to be an indictment of irregular marriage laws in the Appalachian Mountains. So why the extended scene of a naked 12-year old girl going swimming? This one is infamous for being a movie the MST3K crew refused to riff on. (and while The Cinema Snob did review it, claiming that he had no standards, even he had a difficult time reviewing it.)

Reefer Madness (1932) is an odd case. It was originally created by a church in an attempt to warn about the dangers of marijuana, and was titled Tell Your Children. A company specializing in exploitation films bought the rights to it and spiced it up with extra scenes and a new title, changing it into an intentional exploitation film.

Grindhouse (2007) was an Affectionate Parody of the exploitation films of the 1970s. ("Grindhouse" being a slang term for the type of theater that specialized in showing actual films of this trope.) And all of the films spun out of Grindhouse Fake Trailers, the Machete Duology, Hobo with a Shotgun and Thanksgiving.

Caligula (1979): This infamous adaptation of the life of Roman Emperor Caligula is rather odd for an exploitation film, as it had a relatively large budget and featured A-List actors (including Malcolm McDowell, Peter O'Toole, and Helen Mirren). However, it also featured enough controversial imagery, including strong violence and extremely hardcore sex, to make it a definitive example of this trope.

An American Crime (also from 2007) is based on the case more directly, but goes out of its way to humanize the characters and go into detail about other things, leaving most of the tortures implied rather than shown. Yet, ironically, perhaps because it's directly based on the real life torture case and not simply being inspired by it, some reviewers accused this movie of being exploitative, even though it held back in the portrayals of violence.

Redo of Healer centers around a protagonist who decides to get revenge on his tormentors by raping and killing them (usually in that order). Aside from the heavy focus on rape, the series also features copious amounts of sex scenes and fanservice, to the point that the anime is about as close as you can get to a Hentai without explicit sexual content.

Guyana: Crime of the Century (1979): Another Ripped from the Headlines René Cardona, Jr. opus, this time featuring a cast who seemingly took a wrong turn on the way to the set of Fantasy Island (Stuart Whitman, Gene Barry, Joseph Cotten, John Ireland, Bradford Dillman, Yvonne De Carlo) in a Roman à Clef account of Rev. Jim Jones and the Jonestown tragedy.

Tokyo Gore Police (2008). The main page says it all: "What ensues is almost two hours-worth of decapitations, dismemberments, disembowelments, katanas, chainsaw duels, penises that double as guns, vagina monsters that eat people, breasts that squirt acid and people propelling themselves into the air with gouts of blood among other things."

The Clones of Bruce Lee (1980) is one of the most notorious of the so-called "Brucesploitation" movies, made to cash on the late Bruce Lee's popularity. Three Bruce Lee Clones work together to stop a Mad Scientist from Taking Over the World.

Mortal Kombat is the most well-known example in video games, with its abundance of gore and use of Fatalities as its big selling point, only getting more gruesome with its 2011 reboot and beyond (though the reboot debatably took the series out of its B-movie-esque roots with more of a focus on story.) The series also spawned a host of imitators hoping to cash in on the resulting fighting game ultraviolence craze, including Strata's Time Killers and Bloodstorm, Way of the Warrior, Eternal Champions and even the aforementioned Bloodlust Software's Timeslaughter.

Sin City (2005) is exploitation-noir, which is probably a bit of a rarity. It may be that exploitation films are what Film Noir evolved into, since Noir represented the first push against the restrictions of The Hays Code, and exploitation films broke the Code down completely. Exploitation films tended to deal with material much darker even than Noir.

Berserk is an interesting subversion. The series is a Dark Fantasy manga that's all about the journey of Guts as he travels with his True Companions across an unthinkably horrible and excessively cruel medieval setting where the most horrible things you can imagine happening are all but prevalent, including copious amounts of incredibly excessive fan-service and explicit sexual content that would make a Hentai look G-rated, heavy focus on rape that is gratuitous as gratuitous gets, all sorts of horrifying aberrations and absolutely inhuman monstrosities that are enough to make Junji Ito proud, tons and tons of extreme graphic violence, gratuitous shock value and excessive gore that would make Redo of Healer and Crossed look like a Disney film, and much more. However, this all works in its favor to produce an incredibly compelling story, being a crowning example of True Art Is Angsty.

Mother Russia Bleeds is about as close as you can get to a video game version of a grimy, ultraviolent exploitation flick. Fights are brutally over-the-top and as gory as a pixellated game can get, stages are grungy and often covered in viscera all on their own, the soundtrack is full of dark pulsing techno beats, and using drugs (modelled after a real-life Russian street drug called Krokodil) is a major gameplay element for both healing and buffing your attacks. Two Best Friends Play describe the game at one point as a Spiritual Successor to the games of Bloodlust Software (a 90's indie duo who made PC games with a similar exploitative feel.)

Dr. Lamb (1992): The titular Villain Protagonist is a necrophile-paedophile Serial Killer masquerading as a taxi driver, who murders drunk hookers during his night shift, sneak their bodies into his apartment and enjoy himself with their carcasses the following morning, with the title referring to his penchant for dissecting and dismembering his victims with impromptu medical / surgical equipment, and his victims being likened as "lambs to slaughter". It's as tasteless as it sounds.

The protagonist is an idealistic young girl and martial arts champion from a small town, who travels to the big city hoping to make it big, only to be betrayed and pimped into prostitution. Making friends with a female cop, both titular women tries getting their lives together, but the cop's boyfriend had plans to use them as drug mules and dispose them off. Contains two scenes where the main lead fights in the nude, including one where she tries to defend her friend from a group of rapists, only to fail and be gang-raped side-by-side with her friend.

The Girl Next Door (2007, do not confuse it with the 2004 film) is about a teenage girl who is held captive and horribly mistreated by her adoptive family. It's based on a novel which in turn is inspired by a similar horrible real life case.
An American Crime (also from 2007) is based on the case more directly, but goes out of its way to humanize the characters and go into detail about other things, leaving most of the tortures implied rather than shown. Yet, ironically, perhaps because it's directly based on the real life torture case and not simply being inspired by it, some reviewers accused this movie of being exploitative, even though it held back in the portrayals of violence.

Genocyber took full advantage of the tendency for anime in the 90's to be ultra-violent. Genocyber is as gory and violent as it gets, featuring characters getting mutilated and killed in the most extreme ways possible. Children running through a field, then getting their brains exploded from their head and turned into a fine pink mist by attack helicopters. A meddling detective getting knocked out and then waking up just moments before he dies to find his intestines were decoratively scattered all over the room while still attached to his body. That sort of stuff.

The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence (2011) is a somewhat notorious example in that while the original film was very controversial on its own, this film delivered the much-anticipated gore that was missing from the original, upping the victim count from 3 to 12 and including gems such as barbed wire rape, sandpaper masturbation, newborn stomping, tongue extraction and laxative-induced coprophagia. Some of its scenes were extreme enough for it be Banned in the UK (several decades after the end of the Video Nasties era) and, allegedly, converted to black-and-white to allow for a wider release.

While the primary House of the Dead series is pretty standard horror affair, spinoff The House of the Dead: OVERKILL gleefully plays up a grindhouse angle directly inspired by the Rodriguez/Tarantino film, with a deep-voiced narrator introducing scenes and characters as if they were in a trailer, tons of gratuitous violence and swearing (to the point that it held a Guinness World Record for it until being usurped by Mafia II), and some blatant sex appeal in the form of Varla Guns, all wrapped up in film grain and X ratings. The stages also have names with exploitation-style phrasing such as "Papa's Palace of Pain" and "Ballistic Trauma".

Hell's Bloody Devils (1970): A secret agent infiltrates a neo-Nazi crime group that prints counterfeit U.S. dollars with the help of a fellow undercover agent, where they discover that the group uses a vicious Swastika-clad motorcycle gang to do their dirty work. It should be noted that the appearance of outlaw bikers in this movie is the result of a quite particular production history: It began shooting in 1967 as solely a spy thriller, but after the film couldn't be sold to a proper distributor, new footage featuring bikers was filmed and incorporated into the plot, which then did find a release.

Karla (2006): Based on the true story of two of Canada's most infamous serial killers, Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka. Noted for featuring a pre-Supernatural fame Misha Collins as Bernardo (alongside Laura Prepon as the title character) who wasn't told that the film was actually based on a real story (and even when learning of it, wasn't made aware how infamous and emotionally relevant the cases were in Canada at the time) which alongside having a conversation with a surviving victim resulted in him disavowing the film.

Master of Martial Hearts tries to be a scathing indictment of fighting fanservice anime, but the actual payoff for this comes right out of left field in the final episode, and the rest of the time it gleefully indulges in exactly the kind of fanservice it's trying to condemn.

Postal and its Spiritual Successor Hatred, both isometric shooters with a pitch-black tone and a focus on mass-slaughtering innocent civilians (the latter even caused a truckload of controversy with people arguing that it shouldn't even be allowed to exist.) Postal 2, however, focused more on Black Comedy and being an irreverent Grand Theft Auto-esque satire of anything and everything, with mass slaughter being completely optional. Ironically, Postal 2 garnered the same controversy that Hatred did but the lesser-known-at-the-time Postal 1 didn't as a result.

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is an Animated Shock Comedy that focuses on sex and swearing. Special mention goes to the English dub, who at the request of the original Japanese producers, threw in as many swear words as they could think of, just to teach them new forms of profanity. Panty alone says "Fuck" and variations there-of no less than 282 times over the course of 13 episodes composed of 26 11MinuteShorts, and that's just the F word alone. By comparison, the cuss-tastic 26 half-hour episode series Black Lagoon doesn't even reach half that, and South Park needed numerous seasons to reach the same number. Many people believe that the dub is much funnier with all the new swear words added in and the more sexual references.

Bloodsucking Freaks (1976): A man runs on shows which feature women being tortured and killed in grotesquely depraved ways. Unbeknownst to the audience, these acts are not staged but are authentic, and the women are not actresses but kidnapped and captive victims. Doesn't just take Refuge in Audacity, it invades Audacity and takes no prisoners.

F.A.T.A.L. feels like an exploitation film in RPG form: much Gratuitous Rape, overwhelming misogyny, heavy Vulgar Humor, general sleaze and absurdly overcomplicated mechanics, including a stat for head size. It has since become infamous for this and the online antics of its designer.

Cannibal Holocaust (1979/1980) is a film within a film featuring a documentary team's ill fated journey into the "Green Inferno" of South America. It sparked murder charges in Italy when it was released due to the graphic portrayals of violence onscreen leading to accusations of being a Snuff Film, as well as charges for animal cruelty due to the onscreen deaths of real animals. It also was banned in Britain as one of the Video Nasties.

Manhunt and its sequel indulge in gratuitous violence in the form of their stealth based gameplay that emphasizes the "execution" mechanic - players are supposed to lurk behind unaware enemies while holding down the attack button for as long as possible, and upon releasing the button the player character tortures the enemy to death. In the first game the PC is being forced into killing enemies at the behest of a director making snuff movies, and the game's art style directly mimics grainy VHS tapes classic grindhouse films were distributed on. The second game does away with the VHS style looks, ups the violence, and includes references to more modern Torture Porn films, such as Hostel.

Maniac (1934) was made by the same people who turned Reefer Madness into an exploitation film. It's a completely crazy story about a Mad Scientist doctor and his even crazier sidekick who kills him and tries to take his place. It has a Cat Fight, it has a topless woman being raped by a crazed feral man, it has hot women lounging around in lingerie for no damn reason, it has a crazy guy who kills a doctor feeling up a topless patient...
