Films you saw "blind"

One of the biggest advantages and disadvantages nowadays is readt information about a film...in the old days you literally had word of mouth promoting a film (Jaws back in the 70s) but now its hard to see a mainstream movie without accidentally finding out major plot points online..dont get me started about trailers!

What films have you seen with little or NO information

for me I can only think of 2

Malice - I was bored and walked past a cinema and the poster caught my eye and it was due to play in 5 minutes so in I went

Into The Wild - caught at an open air screening

I like to see something sudden, when a movie surprises me. So I often add a movie to the watchlist, and when I actually watch it - about a year after, I already forget the description and just trust myself - I somewhy decided that it is worth watching, so why not)
So sometimes I decide to choose random films - because of a poster or title.
These were "Hero", that really amazed me -that day I was late for the film I was going to watch, and it was the next one)
Other - "Tideland", I liked the poster and watched the film. The poster was better)
among such blind films I may name huge number of films that I watched as a child on TV - they just started and I decided to watch them))

I am really trying to do this with all films nowadays - in fact I dont really want to know what genre it is - watching trailers has spoilt films nowadays as they reveal far too much

Before watching a movie, I never read what it is about and I try to avoid trailers (I watched them only when I go to the theater, it is then difficult to avoid them....

"Pierrot le fou"; just heard about it on some website and watched it

It ended up being one of my favorite films :)

I knew nothing about Midnight in Paris, and that turned out to be fantastic, even moreso because the premise wasn't spoiled for me. I hate that the first twenty minutes or so of most movies leave you sitting there waiting for the formalities to end simply because their trailers give away where a given story ends up.

I very rarely watch movie trailors or read reviews prior to viewing. I also don't like to read the back cover of books anymore or read spoilers. I'd rather be surprised.
Sometimes this pays off, and sometimes it just means that I waste my time on a terrible movie. Sometimes I will sit down to a movie without even knowing what genre it belongs (e.g. Killers, I thought it was going to be some kind of horror, ended up being an action/comedy)

I don't watch anything "blind", except short videos, because I feel I don't have time to waste. I usually don't watch trailers though so, if that's enough to qualify, probably everything on my lists of Watched in 2011 and 2012 was seen blind.

Watched the trailer and other promo videos, but nothing else (like read/listen to reviews, which I usually do): Scream 4, Prometheus. I don't need any details on those movie to know I want to see them because I'm a Scream and Aliens fan.

I try to go into everything as blind as I possibly can. The last movie I saw knowing nothing but the title, was Black Swan. Turned out great! I was shocked and surprised the entire movie.

Half the stuff on my Netflix instant queue I know nothing about, I just play and hope it's good.

@Mackenzi I like your spirit

The best film i have seen recently which has been a surprise despite reading reviews is Tales Of the Unusual - a Japanese Twilight Zone-like anthology film -its usually classified as horror but its not really - one segment was a fun corny time travel story, another a standard but effective horror, another a bizarre story with a few twisted moments and another a romantic drama

Tales Of the Unusual

@Lydia

this is my point - when you become cinema literate it is hard to be genuinely surprised by a movie as most follow their genres given "rules" - knowing the type of movie means most of the mechanics are already in place and a film just goes through the motions - very well made films CAN pull this off but most dont
