Netflix is not the cheapest video streaming service out there, costing as much as $16 per month. To save money, you could ditch your Netflix subscription and watch free movies on YouTube instead. There are quite a few of them available, although most of them are a bit older.
We've compiled a list of the 10 best free movies on YouTube from different genres including comedy, action, and horror. But keep in mind that they are not available in every country. Just like Netflix, YouTube has location restrictions set up, likely due to licensing rights. So if you can't watch any of the movies on this list, you'll need to connect to the internet via a VPN server located in the U.S.
Best free movies on YouTube:
Editor's note: We'll be updating this list of the best free movies on YouTube regularly as new ones hit the service.
1. A Fish Called Wanda
Released in 1988, A Fish Called Wanda stars Kevin Kline, Jamie Lee Curtis, and the brilliant John Cleese, who also wrote the movie. It's about a group of people who come together to steal a bunch of diamonds worth millions of pounds and then try to cross each other for the loot. Unfortunately, things don't quite go according to plan. The movie is primarily a comedy, although there's a bit of action in it as well. It's different from the films produced today, which is what makes it so special.
2. Death at a Funeral
This British comedy is simply phenomenal — it's extremely funny as well as unique. A character named Simon is organizing the funeral of his dad, and as soon as friends and family arrive to pay their respects, things start to go wrong. Simon's cousin wants to give valium to her fiancee to calm his nerves, but accidentally gives him a hallucinogenic designer drug that makes him do all sorts of crazy — and funny — things. Simon's snobby brother Robert is also causing problems at the funeral and is declining to help pay for it. Then there's the American man no one seems to know (played by Peter Dinklage), who has a secret about the deceased and is blackmailing the family for 15,000 pounds. Once that happens, things go from bad to worse.
3. The Blair Witch Project
If you're into scary movies, The Blair Witch Project may be right up your alley. I remember watching it at my local theater when I was a kid and was scared out of my mind while walking back home at night. The story revolves around three student filmmakers who head into the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, to make a documentary about the Blair Witch, a local legend that has apparently killed a lot of people over the years. The three students go missing, and their equipment and footage are found a year later. The movie is based on the recovered footage that shows the horror the three students went through in the forest.
