Hot, glistening, humid atmospheres in movies. Any tips?


I am after movies in which characters are constantly in heat. Like places where air-conditioning seems to not exist. Think "Body Heat", "Dog Day Afternoon", "Serpent and The Rainbow", "Falling Down" or "Wake in Fright". I'd prefer if the movies could be thrillers or at least suspenseful. Supernatural is okay too.

The movies can take place in any country.

Thanks in advance!

Inherit The Wind--although it's before A/C existed.
The Mosquito Coast (1986)
At Play In The Fields Of The Lord (1990)

DNA (1996) - forget about the fact that this is more or less a Predator rip-off, and try to ignore that neither Mark Dacascos nor Juergen Prochnow act better than wooden puppets in that movie... but I still like it very much - Tom Taus jr. was superb :-)

Hello CogburnSwale,
have you seen Where the River Runs Black (starring Alessandro Rabelo)?
