YouTube is now offering around 400 movies free of charge. Titles include some well-known films, such as George A. Romero's classic, Night of the Living Dead, as well as many lesser-known titles.

Categories include Bollywood, comedy, romance and documentary among others. “This is one of many efforts to ensure that people can find all the different kinds of video they want to see, from bedroom vlogs and citizen journalism reports to full-length films and TV shows,” YouTube head of video partnerships Donagh O'Malley told The Guardian.

“We hope film lovers enjoy the range of titles in this free library, whether catching up on a mainstream hit or delving into the vast archive of classic films from decades past.” Movies are available up to 480p. Not all films will be available in all locations, and advertisements will precede all features.
