Well, the young couple had sex. You know what this means—they are doomed. Shows where lots of people die tend to have a strange conservatism about who gets killed. If anyone engages in nonmarital sex, especially unprotected and/or with someone they don't really know, you should probably consider them to have a crosshair on their back, even if the killer is choosing their victims totally at random. Fanservice Extras are particularly vulnerable to this trope. Very common in slasher movies, such as the Friday the 13th series, and the entire basis of such Dark Fantasy and Supernatural Thriller films as Liquid Sky and It Follows. This could be a metaphor for the AIDS scare (then-new in the case of older films), or for STDs in general, although according to one of the makers of A Nightmare on Elm Street, it was simply because he thought that people having sex will forget about everything else and be especially vulnerable to serial killers. Which wouldn't be an Ass Pull if they only died during sex, but when they're prone to it afterward, it is hard not to interpret it as anything but a cautionary message. The Other Wiki also has a say in this. If a character doesn't die but is doomed for having sex, it's Downfall by Sex. For a literal application, compare Out with a Bang, Death by Childbirth (yeah, we know...), Curiosity Killed the Cast, and The Murder After. For the lite version, see Kiss of Death. Mate or Die is the inverse of this trope. Contrast Her Heart Will Go On, where the man is doomed, but the woman has Contractual Immortality. Also contrast Glad-to-Be-Alive Sex, which is supposed to be the opposite (two lovers have sex after surviving something that threatened to kill them; it's possible to combine that with this Trope, but only by the cruelest of authors.) In some cases, the doomed man will leave Someone to Remember Him By (Hur, hur, hur...). Don't even get us started if it's with the same gender. Compare Cartwright Curse where death can happen even before the sex merely for being a love interest. Sometimes a consequence of Can't Get Away with Nuthin'. Often takes place at a Make-Out Point. May also be committed by the family members of one or both parties involved, who feel that the act of sex (or acts leading up to the sex) are seen as an affront to Family Honor. Compare Conceive and Kill. The Literal Man Eater is a particularly twisted sister trope to this one. As a Death Trope, several if not all Spoilers will be unmarked ahead. Beware. |

In the shlock blood-and-boobs horror film Piranha 3D, most of the victims are promiscuous spring breakers. A pornographer gets his penis bitten off by a piranha, a woman is sliced in half by a high-tension cable (which first removes her bra, then her entire upper torso), a girl gets her hair entwined in the propeller of a speedboat and has her face ripped off — might be one of the definitive "death by sex" compilations. | |

House, Sex and sexually transmitted diseases are routinely the cause of a number of horrific medical cases, up to and including heart failure, car crashes, paralysis, life-threatening pre-teen pregnancies, and even African Sleeping Sickness. "Sex Kills" is the title of one of the episodes. Subverted in one episode, where we're led to believe that a woman's sexual promiscuity may have led to her illness, but it turns out that the cause is something completely unrelated that she couldn't possibly have foreseen. Subverted in another episode where Cameron assumes the (male) porn star they're treating is sick because of his profession, but it turned out to be caused by his over-sanitary childhood instead. |

In the Broadway musical Into the Woods, the heroes split up to search for Jack to protect him from a marauding Giant. While she's searching, the Baker's Wife meets up with the Prince and has sex with him; she's crushed by the Giant immediately afterward. Well, after she has a soliloquy/musical number that sums her mindset up as "my affair has made me more grateful for what I have but hey it was kind of nice." She's more killed by barely-repentant adultery than killed by sex since she's a married lady with a child. Meanwhile, by contrast, the entirely unrepentant and equally married Prince is punished by hooking up with Sleeping Beauty. Then again, who was expecting something by Stephen Sondheim to be fair? |

Friday the 13th series: Justification: In the first Friday the 13th (1980), the killer, Pamela Voorhees, specifically targeted the people who were having or going to have sex, because the two camp counselors who were supposed to be monitoring her son Jason Voorhees when he drowned as a child were too busy getting groiny with each other. Although according to the comic book, Friday the 13th: Pamela's Tale, Barry and Claudette leave to have sex in the woods. Jason follows watches and interrupts them. Barry then chases Jason into the lake where he sinks and drowns. Next year, Pamela stalks Barry and Claudette and then kills them both during their foreplay. A notorious moment in the second movie is where two teens get killed while in the middle of getting it on. Jason kills them shish kabob-style by skewering them both with a spear. Averted with Ginny from the same film, though, who survives despite having sex with her boss. A significant lampshade is hung on this trope in the tenth film in the series. In a virtual reality simulation meant to distract Jason, a pair of scantily clad teenage girls exclaim (among other things), "We love premarital sex!" He proceeds to kill them with each other. Done heavy-handedly in the 2009 reboot; every character who has sex, or wants to have sex, or fantasizes about having sex, or is a creepy redneck who has sex with mannequins gets killed. There are a few others, of course. |

Ōoku: The Inner Chambers: Required by law in that the first man to sleep with an unmarried Shogun (Shoguns being female in this timeline) be executed for "causing harm to the Shogun's person". So ordered because Iemitsu the Younger's first time was via rape, and she couldn't understand that it's not always like that. Yoshimune is horrified to find out this law exists when she becomes Shogun and inadvertently sentenced Yunoshin to death by choosing him to sleep with her, and plans to rescind the law as soon as possible. She employs Loophole Abuse to spare Yunoshin, by agreeing that he died. The tradesman Shinkichi that happens to look like him? Well, that's just coincidence. In a roundabout way, this applies to Emonnosuke. Yes, he's had sex plenty of times before, but when he had sex with Tsunayoshi, it was the first time he had done it for pleasure, not just to attempt to conceive a child. It was also the first time he slept with someone he loved. He dies the next day of what is implied to be an aneurysm. Tsunayoshi lives for a few more years after that. |

NetHack has the succubus and incubus. Without proper protection, there are quite some ways for an encounter with them to be fatal. Slash'EM Extended makes it much more likely for the encounter to cause negative effects for the player, and also adds more ways for the player to die, e.g. suddenly being attacked by the rape demon after they already took off their clothes. |

While it is not a quick connection of "sex then death", Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles is certainly doomed by sex. The titular character is either raped or seduced (it's slightly ambiguous, but most assume rape) early in the book by a distant relative. This completely destroys her life and sends her on an ever-increasing spiral of despair for the rest of the book, repeatedly rejected because of being Defiled Forever, until at last, she murders the man who deflowered her and is hanged for it. Also, while one may argue whether it happened or not, it's implied Tess and her husband Angel, who once abandoned her just because she was not a virgin then came back and tried to rescue her from execution, consummate their marriage in their hideout. And their hideout scenes are supposed to be those moments of (false) hope. |

Subverted in two Children of the Corn movies, even though many of the children in the series wish to kill adults because of their loss of innocence. In Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice, non-married adults John and Angela have passionate sex. Angela is kidnapped and is almost killed, but she survives. In the same film, teenagers Danny and Lacey almost have sex but are stopped when they find a severed hand. Lacey is kidnapped but is saved along with Angela. In Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return, the main heroine, Hannah, has sex with Gabriel, the man who turns out to be the big bad of the series. She survives. |

Discussed and averted in The Epic of Gilgamesh, where the titular character refused Ishtar, a goddess, seducing him, and in a very interesting case of genre-savviness (remember, this is THE oldest preserved written story EVER, it is the example from not far away from Ur), by naming the mythological figures who met horrible demises accepting such offers. It's debatable whether he knew what his refusal would mean or not but most accounts say he knew he was caught in a Morton's Fork so chose the path he was more comfortable: facing down the divine rage of Ishtar's father. | |

In The Testament of Jessie Lamb everyone is infected with a disease that makes pregnant women die before a baby is born, apparently even if the pregnancy is terminated early. Vaginal intercourse with men kills millions of women. As the men are clearly not willing to stop having vaginal intercourse for the sake of women's survival, one can only speculate how the disease affects poor countries, where not every woman can be given an obligatory hormonal contraception implant. The novel itself doesn't dwell on those implications, in England, it seems to be a rather Cosy Catastrophe. | |

In the Leisure Suit Larry series, this trope appears twice. In Leisure Suit Larry 1: In the Land of the Lounge Lizards sleeping with the hooker at Lefty's Bar without protection causes your family jewels to explode a minute or so later. In Leisure Suit Larry 2: Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places), you can seduce the maid in your resort hotel room and sleep with her, only to have her brother (who's in the military and likes to shoot things) walk in on you. |

In Supernatural, many women who have onscreen sex with Sam or even kiss him are doomed to die afterward, and it's not much better for women who sleep with Dean. Sam's long-term girlfriend Jessica suffers a flaming death in the pilot that matches how Sam's mother was killed, and the show later reveals that Jessica had already been killed and demon-possessed at the time. Sarah Blake initially survives kissing Sam in the first season's "Provenance", but returns in the eighth just to be killed by Crowley because the brothers previously saved her and Sam cares about her. In "Heart", Sam is forced to kill Madison, the first woman he has brought himself to sleep with since Jessica, because there's no cure for being a werewolf and she wants to die. After a long, twisted sexual relationship with the demon Ruby, Sam learns in "Lucifer Rising" she was manipulating him the whole time to resurrect Lucifer. He holds her in place as Dean skewers her with her own knife. One of Sam's former teenage love interests whom he at least had his first kiss with is a kitsune who feeds her sick son freshly killed human organs. Sam trusts her reasons, but Dean kills her behind Sam's back. The hunter Annie Hawkins has had sex with Sam, Dean, and Bobby Singer at separate times— and she shows up for an episode when she's already a ghost. Castiel, who has lost his grace and struggling with being human, is taken in by a kind, pretty young woman named April. He loses his virginity to her, but the next morning she reveals herself to be a Reaper sent to torture and kill him. He's revived, she's killed. Lampshaded when Sam pretends to become a born-again virgin: Subverted in season 4's "Sex and Violence" when the brothers are hunting an unidentified siren. Signs point to the medical examiner as the siren and she has sex with Sam while he seems overly interested in her, but the real siren is the guy Dean is cosying up with. Inverted in the middle of season 5 when Jo rejects Dean's flirting during their "last night on Earth", saying she'd prefer to keep her self-respect... and she dies later in the episode anyway. |

The same happens in the remake: Everyone seen having sex dies horribly. Most of the other victims probably weren't virgins either (this pattern is so glaringly obvious in the movie that it must have been intentional). They even went out of their way to mention Laurie hasn't gotten laid. Although, the trope is surprisingly averted with Annie, who actually survived her attack to appear in the second movie and THEN die. | |

Dickens used the trope straight in Oliver Twist with poor Nancy, who also was a prostitute and ended up dead. This is less "because she's a prostitute" and more "because she hangs around with Bill Sykes." Granted, she does think Sykes loves her, and presumably has had sex with him. |

One of the more controversial things you can do in the Grand Theft Auto series, since its introduction into the 3D world, was to be able to take a prostitute to a secluded part of whatever city you're in (like in an alley or a closed-off section of it), then wait until the car stops shaking. Afterwards, when the prostitute comes out of the car, you could then murder her and get the money back that you spent on the experience (since she then was programmed to return to the game world as a pedestrian that you could kill). | |

In Phantasmagoria: A Puzzle of Flesh, it's more like Kinky Sex Signals Death. The female BDSM fanatic is murdered, while the woman who is having monogamous vanilla sex with the protagonist and wants a committed relationship survives. | |

A notorious moment in the second movie is where two teens get killed while in the middle of getting it on. Jason kills them shish kabob-style by skewering them both with a spear. Averted with Ginny from the same film, though, who survives despite having sex with her boss. | |

Happens to a seduced NPC in the Human Noble origin in Dragon Age: Origins. He or she opens the door of the playable character's room to investigate a noise and gets an arrow in the chest. However, if you choose not to seduce them, you'll find their dead body slightly further on, so the only real difference is whether or not their death occurs onscreen. | |

Never Wipe Tears Without Gloves: In the eighties, gay men were considered to have brought AIDS on themselves because of their sexual behaviors. The book focuses on this quite a lot and author Jonas Gardell makes a lot of references to actual articles written in Sweden at the time and actual things politicians, religious leaders, and other public figures were saying and suggesting. Especially heartbreaking when the book quotes actual newspaper headlines that mention the tragedy when an innocent (i.e., a heterosexual who got AIDS through blood transfusion or heterosexual sex) dies of AIDS. | |

Inverted in The Man with the Golden Gun. The assassin Scaramanga has sex right before he kills someone that he's been hired to kill. (Bond notes that some matadors do the same thing before a bullfight.) The Trope is played straight, however (maybe even doubly so) because Scaramanga later kills his lover after she double-crosses him and helps Bond. | |

Pathfinder since it stylises itself as "the Darker and Edgier Dungeons & Dragons", invokes this with a number of its monstrous races, especially the Always Female ones that thusly need humanoid men to procreate. Harpies traditionally eat their mates after sex, and in fact consider it shameful not to do so, especially if they become pregnant as a result. In a reversal, though, Sirens are well-known for literally dying of grief and heartbreak (or just committing grief-fuelled suicide) if their mates run away or are taken from them. Hags may or may not eat their lovers; it depends on whether they feel hungry or think it would be more "fun" not to. Jorogumos mate with humanoid men to become pregnant, then use their poison to paralyze their lover before implanting the fertilized eggs inside of him; the jorogumo painstakingly keeps him alive and well until the egg hatches, whereupon the baby jorogumos eat their father as their first meal. Lamias tend to eat their lovers after they grow bored with them, assuming they don't kill them in the course of sating their lust. Thriae Queens look like this trope but are an inversion since they require human consorts to fertilize their eggs. Generally speaking, they only take "prime specimens." Since their lot is to wind up as the honored concubines of a sexy Bee Lady, living in luxury while consuming a Fantastic Drug that leaves them in a blissful state, many thriae have no problem recruiting. Some take concubines from slaves offered up in exchange for the queen's prophecies. When the concubines are no longer able to perform their duties, they are painlessly euthanized (like a pet), consumed, and replaced. So it's death by sex because age prevents the men from having sex. A few variants of the "succubus demon" archetype: Succubi steal life force through acts of passion in a straight-up version of this trope; they will switch genders and otherwise change shape to hunt different targets. Succubi also want to use sexuality to tempt mortals to do evil acts because sin is more important to demons than simple destruction. Incubi are a different creature in Pathfinder, being a male demon born from souls that were damned for engaging in their sexual desires that were horribly violent. The likely outcome of being an incubus' victim is the sex is not consensual and death will be a relief. The Erodaemons are a group of daemons who embody death by heartbreak and will drive people to suicide and murder by seducing them and messing with their emotions, reputations, and relationships for fun. Next there are the Paraikas, evil djinn-like creatures who embody destruction by unbridled lust. They like to tempt mortals into ruin — and while they're at it, they spread sexually-transmitted disease because it amuses them. Folca is the daemon Harbinger (demigod) of abduction, children, and sweets. Yikes. Naderi is the goddess of tragic romances and suicides. It goes horribly right for one succubus, Arueshalae, who seduced a priestess of Desna (goddess of dreams, stars, travel, and luck). She decided to see the dying priestess' mind and found herself drawn into Desna's presence. Chaotic Good Desna received her priestess, then turned to Arueshalae, saying "Even demons can dream." Fast forward a bit, and Arueshalae is The Atoner and canonically a redeemed soul with the outward appearance of a succubus, as well as Desna's champion. |

Ramayana: The sage Agastya narrates the backstory of Ravana to Rama. Once, Ravana and his soldiers set up camp in the Himalayas, during his expedition to conquer the celestial realms. One night, Ravana sees a gorgeous nymph named Rambha and approaches her. Rambha reveals that she is engaged to Nalakubera, the son of Ravana's elder half-brother, Kubera (God of Wealth). However, Ravana has his way with Rambha who rushes to her fiance in tears. Nalakubera consoles Rambha and curses Ravana that he will die if he ever commits rape. Since this curse doesn't break the terms Ravana's boon of invincibility (to not be killed by any creature except humans), Ravana fears his nephew's curse and does not violate any woman. | |

Alien³ has Action Survivor Ellen Ripley finally have sex with the prison doctor Jonathan Clemens after spending the past two movies as a Chaste Hero. After a touching scene where he opens up about his past, he's immediately eaten by the Alien. This also overlaps with Cartwright Curse, as it removes the last meaningful companion in her life after already losing her new True Companions from the previous movie in the Downer Beginning. Even worse, it's later revealed Ripley was impregnated by the Alien and she can only stop the contagion by dying, which she does at the end of the movie to stop Weyland-Yutani, the Greater-Scope Villain of the series, from getting it. As the movie was made during the height of the AIDS pandemic, the Alien in this movie is often interpreted as a metaphor for AIDS and the apathetic government response to it. | |

Fallout Fallout 3 has a house in Minefield with two skeletons embracing on a bed, indicating they may have been lovemaking when the bombs hit. In Fallout: New Vegas, the player sometimes gets the opportunity to invoke this on others — most notably, a female main character can opt to screw and then murder Benny in his sleep! Or just make him think you're going to sleep with him in order to get him vulnerable. |

Romeo and Juliet would be an example, except the two secretly marry before they do that sort of thing. Although since they marry against their families' wishes, and the story was originally meant to be a warning tale of young people who fall in love too quickly, do foolish things, and suffer horrible consequences, it still counts as an example of "death as a punishment for socially unacceptable sex". | |

The Murdoch Mysteries Halloween Episode "I Know What You Did Last Autumn" is a Slasher Movie pastiche in which a Monster Clown who previously took photos shaming promiscuous colleges students has progressed to killing them. Except he hasn't; the new clown is killing everyone involved in the shaming of one particular student, and the fact it initially appears to fit the pattern just shows their hypocrisy. | |

The first Count Yorga had Paul and Erica have sex after they find themselves stuck outside Yorga's mansion after their van mysteriously breaks down. Almost instantly, Yorga attacks the couple. They're not killed there (Paul is just knocked out while Erica is bitten). But later in the film, Yorga visits Erica, seduces and drains her which does "kill" her and turns her undead. While Paul tries to go rescue her after he finds her missing, has his back broken by Yorga and later found mutilated under the manor likely by Yorga's brides. Likewise, Hayes is shown to be having sex with a woman in the middle of the film and is killed by Yorga's brides. | |

Lost The first two times depicted couples having sex on the island, the female of the couple (Shannon, Ana-Lucia) was shot and killed later in the same episode; the latter was the one who killed the former (accidentally). Also Libby, whom it's strongly implied was about to do the deed if she hadn't already. Also, sleeping with Sayid is practically a non-stop ticket to the afterlife. In fact, this is what kills Shannon. He later marries Nadia and actually ends up shooting Elsa himself. |

Meet the Feebles is a complicated case because almost all of the named characters die regardless of whether or not they had sex. The ones that do are arguable borderline examples though: Heidi kills Bletch and Samantha during her rampage. Trevor, who drugs Lucille and almost rapes her, also gets killed by Heidi. Harry spends most of the movie thinking he's going to die from "The Big One" (myxomatosis). He's informed by his doctor that he only has a milder disease and is not going to die, only to be killed by Heidi moments afterward. Harry is the only character in the movie who has sex on-screen and dies without doing something else to deserve it, and his death is more ironic than karmic. Dennis, the perverted panty-sniffer who is used as a pornstar by Trevor, is used by Bletch as a Sacrificial Lamb to test the quality of drugs he purchased. Because the "cocaine" is really Borax, Dennis dies from ingestion. Sidney, who has nonmarital sex offscreen before the events of the film, is shot in the kneecaps while coming to the rescue of his son, Seymour, but lives. The mother of the child, Sandy, gets her head blown off by Heidi. Sebastian, the Camp Gay director who sings a whole song about the joys of the supposedly sinful act of Sodomy but doesn't have sex onscreen, survives by hiding in a giant carrot during the rampage. |

The girlfriend flashes her panties to Walker, pissing off the boyfriend. Walker kills them both, but the girl specifically for being skanky (and he tortures her to death whereas the boyfriend got a quick one); he actually abhors sex. | |

Psycho is possibly the earliest example ever of this in American cinema. The opening scene of a hotel tryst establishes Marion Crane as sexually active with Sam Loomis, and she famously ends up getting killed in the first half hour. Even the iconic Shower Scene features sexual allegories; during her shower, Marion's expressions start as ecstatic and then turn dreamy, as if she were pleasuring herself, and then the legendary knife stabbings evoke a rape. | |

Scream: Scream (1996): Conversed by Genre Savvy horror geek Randy Meeks, who calls not having sex Rule #1 for successfully surviving a horror movie. The other two rules cover drinking and doing drugs, and saying that you'll be right back. Evidently Randy forgot his own lesson later: he gets killed in the sequel, and it's revealed that he spent a night with "Creepy Karen" before getting whacked. Double Subverted by main protagonist Sidney: she bangs Ghostface himself and lives, then ends up killing him in self-defense! Angelina of Scream 3 reveals that she employed the Casting Couch to get the role of Sidney in Stab 3... then she dies seconds later. Damn, do the rules strike fast. In Scream 4, it's revealed that Jill lost her virginity to Trevor, pushing their position as Sidney and Billy expies further. Later, Jill is revealed as the killer, and she offs Trevor shortly, making this the exact inverse of the Sidney and Billy example, right down to the sex of the killer. Then Jill dies too. In Scream (2022), Richie taunts Sam with her sexual history (with him, no less) but it's Sam who ends up as a survivor. It’s also softly averted with Mindy, who makes out with another girl at the party, only to survive the movie anyways. Liv does fit the trope however, she wants to have sex with her boyfriend and had previously slept with Vince (who also gets killed) and Liv gets a Boom, Headshot!. |

Implied in the video for the Ultravox song "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes". The video's protagonist is a worker at a nuclear power plant who, when the reactor goes into meltdown with no hope of stopping the explosion, hurries home to spend one last romantic evening with his wife. The video ends with the couple in bed; the last thing we see is a shot of their television (bearing an onscreen message warning of the impending disaster) which then goes blank as a blinding light floods the room. | |

In the 1970s The Day of the Jackal, the Jackal meets an attractive married woman at a hotel, has a torrid affair with her, then later discovers her address and goes to her home. When she asks him about what he's doing, because the police were looking for him, and he's driving a car with local plates, which means she knows he stole it, and if he'll just tell her, she won't say anything, he breaks her neck. In the corresponding scene of the 1997 remake, The Jackal, the Jackal picks up a guy at a bar and goes home with him. He's still at the guy's house the next day, using it as a base of operations. When the fellow sees the Jackal on a news report, the Jackal casually shoots him. This was also done, exactly the same, with a gay guy, in the earlier movie version (and originally in the book). The police specifically ignore him because they're looking for a man who had sex with and killed a countess, not some makeup-wearing homosexual. |

In the Neverwinter Nights module series The Bastard of Kosigan, you can go through it in such a way that every woman you make out with or have sex with dies soon afterward. Of course, being the non-linear sort of story it is, all of them but Alex can survive too. Several quests in A Dance with Rogues, most notably the Dhorn Generals' Heads quest in the first chapter, involve having sex with someone to get something before killing them. |

HBO's Game of Thrones certainly depicts a world in which many beloved characters die. As a lead-in to the Red Wedding, you know the young couple Robb Stark and his newlywed Talisa are screwed when they are shown together happily... screwing. As a bonus, their deaths are foreshadowed the moment they decide to name the unborn child after Robb's late father, Eddard Stark. | |

Another aversion. Dickens' David Copperfield has Emily, David's first love, dumping her fiancé Cam right before their wedding to run away with David's best friend James Steerforth and become his concubine. She ultimately lives, and after LOTS of misfortune (principally, Steerforth being an absolute Jerkass to her), she goes to Australia with her father Daniel. The book also includes Emily's best friend Martha, a prostitute, who helps Daniel and David to find the missing Emily and also survives. | |

In Final Destination 4, Hunt has steamy sex by the pool and shortly after dies a very gruesome death by being sucked into a high-pressure drain hole. It doesn't help that he was a Hollywood skeptic that was warned about some weird stuff going on... or saying earlier that if he was going to die, he was gonna get laid first. | |

Narrowly averted in the Blackest Night arc. Writers initially planned to have the current Firestorm, Jason and his girlfriend Gehenna, doing a make-out session prior to Gen's death. This was later changed to a quiet conversation about getting married and having kids. Then they changed their minds and had it re-drawn into the make-out scene, but this was fortunately lost somehow and they ended by putting in the conversation. | |

Played with in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Exaggerated into the family-friendly version of this trope: Death By Marriage. As soon as Will and Elizabeth are hitched, you know one of them is about to die. But then subverted, and arguably inverted, when some Loophole Abuse causes that character to un-die, and the two are able to consummate in due course. (And not like that, either.) Heck, even the "family-friendly" element is subverted, because we see them putting clothes back on afterwards. (Not to mention the reveal in The Stinger...) |

Inverted in Death Proof. The first group of girls, while they act fun, are surprisingly conservative, especially Arlene/Butterfly, who actually seems to have some kind of aversion to sex. They die. Horribly. The second group, on the other hand, are very open about their sex lives ("He likes to watch me pee"), and Kim at one point in the final chase scene yells "I'm the horniest motherfucker on the road!" Not only do they live, but they also kill Stuntman Mike. | |

Inverted in God of War III. Aphrodite has sex with Kratos late in the game. She is the only Greek God spared of his wrath. This is more a case of Dummied Out, as the designers originally planned for Aphrodite to pull a knife on Kratos if you went back for round two, which would end in her death, but decided against it. | |

Given an explanation in Silent Night, Deadly Night. The slasher Billy, when he was a kid, accidentally saw two teenagers having sex in the boarding school where he lived. The Mother Superior who ran the school caught the teenagers and Billy and told him what the two teenagers were doing was wrong. So when Billy snaps and starts killing "naughty" people in a Santa outfit he equates all sex with naughtiness, leading him to murder six people. | |

They shoo the secretary out, make Neary sit down at his desk, and type a note at gunpoint in which he "confesses" to being coerced by Eli Thompson into falsifying voting records, then Harrow shoots him in the mouth and makes it look like a suicide. In season 3, Benny Siegel makes an attempt on Gyp Rosetti while Rosetti is in the midst of kinky sex with a redheaded waitress. He fails to kill Rosetti, who uses the waitress as a human shield to take the bullets, and only succeeds at killing a couple of Rosetti's guards. |

All Flesh Must Be Eaten: Invoked deliberately in the scenario "PHADE to Black". Four years ago, a mad teenager used an obscure voodoo ritual to raise his AIDS-infected, drug-overdosed girlfriend back from the dead, screwed her and then destroyed her the next morning when he came back to his senses. However, the virus in her body had mutated into a new zombie STD and the promiscuous lad began spreading it far and wide when he moved to a huge state university not long after. He and many hundreds of thousands died in a shocking wave of PHADE deaths... and then the real horror of the disease revealed itself, as the dead rose up again as semi-intelligent, blood-drinking zombies. | |

This happens almost every episode in CSI. If two characters are shown having sex, and it's enjoyable and unwed and not in the missionary position, one or both of them are doomed. This has more to do, however, with the fact that any character outside the main cast whose personal life the show delves into is doomed, regardless of what they're doing. | |

Hack/Slash: Slashers are, for whatever reason, often attracted to teenagers engaging in "debauched behavior". There's easily a dozen ready examples of teens getting offed as they're about to have sex. Cassie even tried to initiate a make-out session with Skottie Young to lure a slasher to them, lampshading the trope when he rebuffed her. Obviously, this is all due to the prevalence of the trope in '80s slasher flicks, which the series is largely inspired by in the first place. Angela Cicero, the Acid Angel, is a slasher who seduces men into sex before killing them with her pheromone-activated acid secretion powers. Before she was resurrected as a slasher, she seduced her best friend's husband and was murdered for it after the friend committed suicide. |

Averted in Ghostbusters (1984). It's strongly implied that the final event that allowed Gozer to come to New York (an event that would've caused the apocalypse if the Ghostbusters hadn't killed her shortly afterwards) was Dana having sex with Lewis. It's an aversion because both Dana and Lewis were possessed by, respectively, the Gatekeeper and Keymaster rather than being voluntary participants and because both of them survive the film. | |

Halloween series: Used in the original Halloween (1978), where three of the five victims had just had sex, and the fourth was on her way to do so. It's heavily implied, however, that Michael Myers has some severe issues with sex, and the selection of victims is not at all coincidental. In an interview with AMC, John Carpenter (the director) states "I have been accused of ending the Sexual Revolution, and for that, I sincerely apologize." The same happens in the remake: Everyone seen having sex dies horribly. Most of the other victims probably weren't virgins either (this pattern is so glaringly obvious in the movie that it must have been intentional). They even went out of their way to mention Laurie hasn't gotten laid. Although, the trope is surprisingly averted with Annie, who actually survived her attack to appear in the second movie and THEN die. In Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, trampy Kelly, who sleeps with Brady, her friend's boyfriend, gets killed, as does Brady, said cheating boyfriend. The virginal Rachel survives. Subverted in the next film. Despite presumably still being a virgin, Rachel's the first to get killed, while two others are killed in the very act of making love, and still another's virgin status is unknown, but she dies too. |

X/1999. Sorata and Arashi. Inverted because he dies — first in the movie (though she follows him later), later in the TV series. He's still alive in the manga, but it's a sure thing he'll die sooner or later. In a subversion, it's less about the sex than it is that Sorata, even before the story begins, was destined to die for a woman. Sorata didn't know who he would die for or how; he just jokingly said that, since he absolutely has to die for the sake of a lady, he'd like to die for a really pretty girl. It was many years later (which is the beginning of the story) when he actually met Arashi; knowing that You Can't Fight Fate, he decided to die for her. | |

Mahabharata: Pandu, the King of Hastinapura, goes on a hunting expedition, and kills a stag that was mating with a doe. The stag and doe turn out to be the sage Kindama and his wife who wanted privacy. The dying Kindama curses Pandu that he will die should he have sex with anyone. The despondent king abdicates in favour of his blind brother and retires to the forest with his two queens, Kunti and Madri. Pandu practices celibacy while he requests his wives to invoke the demigods and have children with them. Thus the five Pandavas are born. After several years, Pandu is overcome with lust one day upon seeing Madri return from bathing and is unable to restrain himself. He dies due to the curse and the grief-stricken Madri commits suicide, while Kunti is forced to live in order to raise her five young sons. Long ago, there was a king named Sudasa who ruled over Ayodhya. Due to a series of unfortunate events, Sudasa is cursed by his preceptor Vashistha to become Rakshasa (a cannibal demon) for twelve years. Sudasa lives in a jungle, and one day, he encounters a sage having an intimate moment with his wife. Impelled by cannibalistic desires, Sudasa devours the sage, and consequently, the Rakshasa is cursed by his wife that he will die if he tries to have sex. After twelve years, Sudasa returns to his original human form but is unable to have children. He requests his queen, Madayanti, to approach Vashistha and have a son with him.

Interestingly, the slasher film did not always contain this trope: in the 1974 Canadian film Black Christmas (1974), the heroine is pregnant, though the movie ends with her alone in the house with the killer. The first victim is also described as a "professional virgin." | |

Played so straight it's almost a parody in Jennifer's Body, where the title character uses the promise of sex to lure boys into places where she can eat them. It's revealed though that the whole "demonic possession" thing gets kicked off only because its perpetrators thought they had gotten their hands on a virgin sacrifice. | |

Slash'EM Extended makes it much more likely for the encounter to cause negative effects for the player, and also adds more ways for the player to die, e.g. suddenly being attacked by the rape demon after they already took off their clothes. | |

In the Elfquest spinoff New Blood, the villainous rock-shaper Door seems impossible to defeat until the jackwolf-rider Dodia beats his brains out with a club. As Door and Dodia had just recently Recognized one another, Door took it for granted that she wouldn't be able to hurt him; because they'd already had sex and conceived a Recognition-sired child, however, she was no longer biologically compelled to be his mate and could fight back against his evil. | |

Buffyverse: Disaster occurs after the first time Angel and Buffy sleep together. Enter Angelus, who then kills Jenny Calender and tries to destroy the world. Xander attracts quite a number of demon girls who want to have sex with him and kill him. At once for the first case, the substitute teacher who turns out to be a female mantis. The prevalence of this trope is lampshaded in Angel after Cordelia's first brush with a Fetus Terrible. |

Piranha Part Two: The Spawning's opening scene had a couple discussing where they failed to have sex because the guy found fault in everything. The hotel room was too dry, the beach too sandy, and the boat too uncomfortable. They then go scuba-diving into a shipwreck and decided to have sex, you know, nothing better than that, right? Well, okay, the killer piranha did kinda ruin the mood. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines has a surprisingly tragic example, with Paul Anderson, an Anarch ghoul you are sent to get informations from. Turned out he had sex with Hannah, his prostitute girlfriend, who he was genuinely in love with. Unfortunately for both of them, she had just been infected with a disease by an Apocalypse Cult of insane vampires; by the time you arrive, Paul already has succumbed to the sickness, and Hannah survives just long enough to give you clues about the cause before dying as well. | |

In Tormented (2009), a schoolboy who killed himself because of bullying comes back from the dead to take fatal revenge on the bullies. One of them decides to go to the cemetery and dig up the killer's body but is sidetracked by having sex with his girlfriend while his car is parked there, which turns out to have been a very bad idea because the killer drags him out of the car and castrates him by repeatedly stomping on his genitals, leaving him to bleed to death. Ouch. | |

In the Full Metal Panic! novels, apparently, after all these years, Kurz Weber finally manages to get it on with Melissa Mao (after years of Slap-Slap-Kiss). He dies during his very next mission. But it's ultimately averted! Guess who's back after being rescued by the Spetsnaz in the penultimate volume of the novel series?? | |

Lampshaded again in Die Another Day, after a Fake-Out Make-Out session (that Bond tries to turn into a real make-out session): Miranda does in fact sleep with Bond... and is later revealed to be The Mole, at which point she attempts to turn the trope on Bond, complete with a Call-Back to the "sex for dinner, death for breakfast" remark. It's ultimately played straight when she's stabbed through the heart by Jinx, the film's other Bond girl. |
