 If you can be open-minded about viewing different types of movies, you can find many hours of unexpected entertainment. No, you won�t find free downloads of current blockbusters, but you will find plenty more to keep you interested. Whether you like a good Alfred Hitchcock thriller, a Wes Craven horror blood-bath, or any other genre of movie, you can find a way to view some or all of the movies on the internet.
Do not be fooled by sites that offer free, first-run movies. First-run movies, which are currently playing in theaters, are illegal to download from any site free of charge. There are a number of these sites available, but they operate illegally and you can face legal woes if you knowingly download from their sites. What�s more, copy quality is typically quite bad as they are often recorded under poor circumstances. Many pirated copies are obtained by a movie-goer who sneaks a camcorder into a theater and records the movie from their seat. Needless to say, these are less than ideal circumstances and produce grainy, hard-to-watch films often
accompanied by poor sound quality.
You can find many hours of viewing pleasure, if you are willing to �think outside the box� a little bit. If you will consider older movies and documentaries, you can have access to a large selection of free movie downloads. In addition to classic films and documentaries, you will find many sites which offer free trailers, clips, extra-footage and additional information about the films, their shooting schedules, actors, etc.
Independent films and documentaries can also be downloaded for free from many internet sites. Some independent films have gone on to win an Academy Award, so you might just get a first glimpse of an Oscar-winner. Moviesfoundonline.com opens the door to many fine independent films and documentaries.
Like other sites, Turner Movie Classics also offers trailers, clips, extra footage and more. These can be especially entertaining to view when the films have moved on to become considered �classic�. Seeing out-takes of James Dean�s �Rebel Without a Cause� is worth visiting the site alone.
There are other movie download sites that do offer free trial periods. Vongo.com offers a fourteen-day free trial period. During that time you can download as many movies as you like. They will not be the very latest movies, but more likely movies that have been out of theaters for a few years. After the trial period expires, Vongo.com charges a $9.99 fee per month.
A site called CinemaNow.com offers movies for sale, download (at a fee) and for rent. At CinemaNow.com you can rent a full-length movie for $3.99. Currently available for rent on their site: Sweeney Todd, Juno and the Oscar-Winner, No Country for Old Men Rental films are actually made available to the consumer via download to your computer. It is not possible to burn downloaded rental films to a DVD � they have a program which prohibits this.
At MoviesandDownloads.com, we are proud to have Isaiah Henry as a writer and reviewer of free movie downloads sites. He has written on CinemaNow.
