What are some movies that are best experienced going in completely blind?
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.

The first thing that comes to mind isn't a movie but a miniseries - Midnight Mass.
For a movie maybe Groundhog Day?
I love Midnight Mass
I heard about it from RedLetterMedia and decided to check it out based on their recommendation. There was a lot of potential for it to be a waste of time and a cheap throwaway use of its premise but everything about it was obviously carefully planned and executed and it took itself very seriously. If it was something I just saw listed on Netflix I probably wouldn't have even looked into it given the title and subject matter and if I was told about some specifics I would have assumed it was going to be some horror schlock.
