Odd/Taboo/Unsettling/Unique documentary recommendations

I have gone down a large rabbit hole of documentaries recently and I want to find some more, but my taste in documentaries is kinda odd lol. Some of my notable mentions as of late:

The Final Member

Tell Me Who I Am

Super Masochist: The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan

Take Care of Maya

Finders Keepers

American Nightmare

Dear Zachary

The Imposter

The Devil and Daniel Johnston

All that to say I really enjoy dark/out of normal themes. I don't really have any limitations to what the context is, other than I don't want to watch anything with a lot of animal cruelty.
