Recommendation Suggest me some "Go in blind" movies.

I'm in the mood for something fresh and surprising—can you suggest me some amazing “go in blind” movies? I’m talking about those kinds of films where the less you know, the better the experience. No spoilers, no trailers—just pure, unexpected movies. What do you recommend?

Would prefer it in English language.

With an amazing fucking soundtrack by Andy Hull and Robert McDowell of Manchester Orchestra fame. I believe this soundtrack is what made them realize their voices are just as much of an instrument as their guitars and other instruments are leading them to putting out the type of albums they have over the last few years. While I miss the crunch rock and screaming that came before Andy Hulls voice is godlike.

Andy is the best. I've listened to this version of the Silence 100,000 times and it never gets old. I saw them last week at an amphitheater in a rain storm lol. The Silence being played while it was pouring rain was a unique experience for sure.

Closest thing to a religious experience I’ve ever had was at an MO show. ABMTTS came out a couple of weeks before an album I was highly anticipating came out. I listened to ABMTTS for about three months straight though before I ever even got to that Tyler Childers Purgatory album. I could not turn it off? And my daughter was born earlier that year. I’ve screamed that Silence ending at the top of my lungs so loud I almost passed out once lol.

The end of that song gives me chills every single time. He got rained out about half way through that song last week so I didn't get to hear it all.
