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. Movies which are currently showing in theaters simply are not available for free download � legally � it is that simple. Yes, some sites will offer the latest blockbusters but these copies are obtained and distributed illegally. As a consumer, if you knowingly download illegal material, you can be prosecuted by the law.

Because artists, unions and film companies are feeling ripped-off by these �pirates�, more laws are being introduced and enforced more strictly than ever. 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. If you have not seen �the classics�, a visit to Turner Movie Classics can change that in a hurry. Turner features free downloads of many classics � currently you can download (free) John Wayne�s �McClintock�. This is a really good Western and suitable for viewing by the entire family � and it is free. �McClintock� is only one of many very good, old classics that you can download from Turner.
