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.
Fight Club.
All of them. Fuck trailers that give away major plot points.
The perfect host is pretty good!
Completely blind? Idk maybe try audiobooks.
Primer
I don’t understand Primer now.
It’s pretty straightforward
It is executed in a way that is consistent and well done if you know what is going on, but also convoluted and kind of boring if you don’t catch all the details or understand everyone’s motives.
I think it is vastly overrated, but likely because I only watched it once and hated the characters. Like it is fine, just more confusing than mind bending.

You ever see eXistenZ?
I thought the movie “source code” seemed stupid when I saw the marketing materials, but you should ignore those completely because the PR people literally didn’t know what kind of movie they were marketing. I wouldn’t have watched if it weren’t for a family member deciding to put it on.
Also don’t read any description from people who understood the movie ahead of time, it would spoil it. My only hint is that it’s time travel adjacent, and if you understand a bit about those kinds of theories you’ll understand the movie. The delivery is good, just go in blind when watching it.
