I don't think anybody in the US is banning movies these days. Saudi Arabia bans many films but they are readily available on DVD for the Sauds to watch in private.
Unless Saudi has seriously relaxed its customs ordeal in the past ten years, I'd be very wary of trying to bring in a film like "Baise Moi." It may be easier to have a DVD/video shipped into Saudi, but personal experience tells me that customs can and does yank "questionable" material from individual travelers/returning residents--we lost a hefty chunk of our video collection back in '94. Many Saudis "tweak" their satellite dishes in order to get more risque or adult movies (and then tape them), usually broadcast from UAE or Kuwait.
