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.

Everything, Everywhere, All at Once.

I'm so glad I knew literally nothing about it. What a rare treat to be surprised like that.

Just watched this today.

Ya, I feel like if someone tried to explain to me what it was, I wouldn't have gotten half of what I got out of it.

Yeah I feel like the trailers gave away the unique nature of a lot of scenes.
