What are some movies that are best experienced going in completely blind? (leminal.space)

I feel like everyone has had a movie partially spoiled by a trailer but I also feel like descriptions, movie posters, and even genre tags can be a give away and make a plot twist or scene less impactful.

One movie I vaguely remember watching without any context was the 2021 movie Oxygen. I enjoyed it but I feel like it would have been slightly more predictable if I had looked at the genre tags and that would have effected my enjoyment.

I feel like you need to have a pretty good sense of someone's tastes to make a "trust me"-style recommendation like this.

You do. Also, if you ask specifically for movies you have to be unprepared for, won't that make you prepared for them?

It's kind of a question by proxy. I'm less asking for me and more asking for suggestions that might be good to blindside friends with.

For example we're spending time together and I put it on for something to watch.

I'm gonna try for some where there's a chance you don't already know what they are:

Bad Boy Bubby

El Secreto de Sus Ojos

The Music of Chance

I'm Not Scared
