If you're a creature of deeply aggressive kink seeking something artsy, life affirming, cathartic and full of transgressive sexuality, Buttgereit's Nekromantik might be for you. Though heady, I think these movies are some of the finest combinations of violence and sensuality on film. The man's given us a worthwhile question. Let's be grownups and open up this dialogue to more suggestions.

Definitely agree about Blue Velvet. Talk about arty degradation.
I'm suprised you didn't mention one of your favorites,
Kyôfu joshikôkô: bôkô rinchi kyôshitsu (Terrifying Girls' High School: Lynch Law Classroom). Not gonna lie - Amidst the initial discomfort of torture, humiliation, and degradation, I found myself, well,
you know...
For erotic torture horror, you HAVE to go Asian. Check out
Tôkyô zankoku keisatsu (Tokyo Gore Police) for a modern homage to previous JA Schlock that has come before.

DEFINITELY
Videodrome. The elements of errotic horror are quite explicit and overt.
In terms of Candyman and Hellraiser, they have
elements of erotic horror, but it's not a main theme (which is DISAPPOINTING in Hellraiser, considering it's supposed to be part of the POINT). I think that Hellraiser could and SHOULD have had more torture eroticism in it.
