She apparently places Fatal Attraction and Basic Instinct into this category.
This author, Linda Ruth Williams, is a film professor, and this is one of her books that delves into women's roles in erotic thrillers, and she conceives the latter genre as drawing from both pornography and noir.
In searching for what people call neo-noir, I ran across this, but I don't buy or read books about films. I read snippets on Google. Erotic thrillers are excluded from my long list of neo-noirs. There were many of these in the 1990s especially.
