My laptop is in for repairs this weekend, and it’s pretty much my only movie-watching device (I don’t have broadband speed on my phone, so no streaming to the phone, no working TV, either) and I was looking for reliable and legal sites to download movies (preferrably free, and I know that probably means public domain stuff, but that’s OK) while I still have WiFi access to watch later offline. I’m a big horror fan, if that makes a difference. Thanks!

[Archive.org](http://Archive.org) has tons of old public domain horror films free to download.

[Public Domain Movies](http://publicdomainmovies.net/) is another site with a broad selection.
