Free Movie Downloads - Great Info And Terrible Info

By: Isaiah Henry

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.

Not all movies are available in their totality for free download. As a matter of fact, the majority of what you will find free to view consists of trailers, clips, extra footage and information about the shooting, scenes and the actors. Viewing trailers is actually a good way to decide if you�re interested in seeing the entire movie.

While you can�t download entire first-run movies for free, you can download clips, trailers and some really interesting background information about the movie, plot and stars. One such site is called �Apple Movie Trailers�. Apple gives you access to hundreds of movies, many of which are quite new. You can watch (free of charge) trailers and clips to your heart�s content.

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.

Two documentaries which have received rave reviews and can be downloaded for free are �The U.S. vs. John Lennon� and �Battle for Baghdad � 2007�. Both of these are great documentaries � informative and entertaining. Not all documentaries on the site are of a serious nature. You can find documentaries in comedic and musical categories as well. You have absolutely nothing to lose, and potentially a good deal to gain by paying a visit to the site.

Legal vs. Illegal � If you find a site promising free downloads of movies which are currently in theaters, they are illegal sites. These movies are pirated, do not belong to the website and they have no legal right to distribute these films. It may be tempting to see the new Indiana Jones movie for free, but you might want to think twice before downloading it. You can be prosecuted for downloading illegal movies � that should be enough of a deterrent. If it is not, however, these pirated copies are usually very poor quality, sometimes so bad you can�t tell what�s going on and the sound quality tends to be very poor.

If you are a fan of modern movies, you might consider joining a movie downloading site like Vongo.com. Vongo.com offers a free-trial period (14 days) during which time you can download all the movies you like. When the free-trial expires, you may elect to quit or enroll at a very reasonable monthly charge.
