We all have those days where we just want to stay at home, plant ourselves in the couch and watch movies all day. But buying original DVDs is quite expensive and we don't always want the movies that are shown on cable TV.
So where do you get a day's worth of movies?
Before you shamelessly scream “piracy!” at the top of your lungs, I'm advising you to please calm your racing hearts and close that download window now. Aside from being illegal, downloading pirated films will most likely impregnate your computer with viruses. Don't do it.
The good news is, there are websites where you can legally stream movies for free. It may not be the latest blockbuster, but there are hundreds of good movies from classic masterpieces to film festival favorites – all of which can contribute to the expansion of your cinematic horizon.
So sit back, relax, and check out these websites for awesome free movies!
