Sportman's guide to hunting free online movies & short films

#1
C C Offline
For those, I guess, who want to venture beyond the boundaries of familiar Crackle, TubiTv, Popcorn Flix, Yahoo View, Pluto-Tv, etc.

As with the above... Newer, non-public-domain streaming movies / shows should have commercials (of the site's own sponsors) inserted in them, just short of almost the same occurrence as on broadcast television. If they don't, then something is either definitely afoot or they're miraculously paid for by conventional ads on the site. (Always avoid free streaming sites which exhibit lurid advertisements and have funny looking URLs, and offer movies that are WAY too recent to even be supported by commercials.)

The classic movie sites or sub-categories, however, should have either no or far fewer commercials in their (usually) public domain offerings.


Newer, as well as independent, documentary, and possibly exotic or rarer short films available to watch here:

Snag Films (has a wikipedia article)

The older films of these sites are supposedly all public domain. Though there are arguably some titles that might have to be on a larger list than what Wikipedia provides:

Retrovision Classic Movies (approved by a stemjar.com review)
http://retrovision.tv/all/

Archive Dot Org Movies (hey, its archive.org, after all!)
https://archive.org/details/movies

WARNING: Although this review appears to give "Movies Found Online" a shakey thumbs-up, the unsettled aura must be emphasized. If it accepts volunteered submissions or uses an automated foraging process that literally links to any streaming cinema it finds on the web without evaluating it beforehand, then of course it would be dangerous in more ways than one. Even though the site may be kosher or its address stable and non-nomadic, that doesn't necessarily mean everything it connects to or provides is.
