Horror in the Public Domain?

Who doesn't like old campy horror movies from the 1950's to get in to the spirit of Halloween? The Internet Archive host a multitude of movies and television shows which have entered into the public domain. For those that don't know, "The Internet Archive (IA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to building and maintaining a free and openly accessible online digital library, including an archive of the World Wide Web." - Wikipedia

IA hosts about 49 titles in the "horror" category (some entries have been duplicated, some may be better quality uploads). 1968's Night of the Living Dead and 1962's The Brain That Wouldn't Die are two good examples of films in the library. These films have entered into the public domain and are available for free to download. If downloading isn't your thing, they also stream the movie on the site (akin to youtube, hulu, etc.).
