Movie Twists - A Plea

DO NOT FEAR NO SPOILERS

I love movie twists. I enjoy watching a film for a second time to appreciate all the clues pointing toward the twist. There have been many successes and many, many failures in this type of film. Two types of failures that immediately spring to mind are the films that just cheat so you don't see the twist coming, and the film that doesn't cheat, but just leaves you kind of disappointed [Bart Simpson: You know what would have been scarier than nothing? Anything!].
Anyway, my plea is directed towards people that have seen a film of this type (and this includes many film critics who should know better). PLEASE, do not even hint that a movie has a twist in it. There's nothing quite like someone saying "This movie has a twist that you won't see coming" to spoil the fun.
