Just taking the first 10 movies from my top 100 that follow your rules:
Children of Men
Barry Lyndon
Spirited Away
Schindler's List
Parasite
Pan's Labyrinth
Do The Right Thing
The Wind Rises
Dunkirk
It's Such A Beautiful Day
HM: North by Northwest, The Tree of Life, Whiplash, Under the Skin, Hereditary, Rear Window, Inglourious Basterds, The Godfather
Didn't put in The Shining since Doctor Sleep is officially a sequel to Kubrick's movie, even though it wasn't made by Kubrick. Same for 2001.

Chronologically
Late Spring
The Life of Oharu
Ordet
Vivre sa Vie
Stalker
Blue Velvet
The Thin Red Line

Films that otherwise would have made the list but didn't due to the "stand-alone" rule:
The Face of Another - part a loose/unofficial/thematic trilogy
2001: A Space Odyssey - has a sequel? though I've seen a few others mention it?
