Although it’s mostly known as a movie rental service (you can also buy movies online too), you can actually watch older films for free on VUDU(opens in a new tab).
The movies aren’t the newest of titles, but there are definitely some high quality feature films to browse, such as Batman Begins, Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle, The Cabin in the Woods, and more. If you don’t mind watching ads every 20 minutes or so during a movie, you can get a lot out of VUDU’s free library of films, TV shows, and animation.
The catalog mostly consist of movies from the 2000s and the 1990s, while there are a few titles from ’80s sprinkled throughout. However, you’re not going to get older movies from the ’50s or ’60s, or arthouse and foreign films. What you are going to get is a great selection of comedies, cult classics, and dramas.
The service is available on just about every online platform, including iOS, Android, Roku, and Chromecast, while it gives users the option to rent or buy new releases. There’s no need to start a free trial because VUDU is free to sign up and create an account, which gives you access to the service’s free movie library.
