You're probably getting a new iPod for Christmas, the model that allows you to play back video, and so you'll be needing a source of movies to load up that bad boy. You could buy some lame TV shows from the iTunes Music Store, but why do that when you can download some truly righteous movies...for free? Not only that, it's completely legal, since these flicks are all in the public domain.

That's right, Public Domain Torrents has more than 500 public domain movies, shorts and serials available for download to your iPod. Among these "classics" are flicks like Ed Woods' Plan 9 From Outer Space, Attack of the Giant Leeches and Atom Age Vampires. But you can also grab non-B offerings like A Farewell to Arms, Angel and the Badman and Nosferatu.

Oh, did I say iPod? I'm sorry; I meant Chia Pet.

In my defense, it's a common mistake.

Eric, in these days when just about every product, in just about every medium, seems eligible for re-packaging and re-marketing, I'm suprised there were so many titles in the public domain ... you'd think someone whould have found a way around that, by now ...

Still, it's good to see those titles there, and available ... I can TELL my boys how bad films like "Plan 9 from Outer Space," "Little Shop of Horrors" or "Santa Conquers the Martians" are ... but it's something else for them to actually SEE it for themselves ...

BTW ... speaking of "really bad," I have FINALLY gotten around to posting again at ArchaeoTexture ... please feel free to stop in and say, 'Hello'
