Its been 6 months since the last free movie offer now SBS have updated their movie collection offering over 900 Free Movies currently available for your viewing.

Mod: This deal was first posted 4/3/14, at the time there were no reports, it was assumptively seen as free movies (that would usually cost money to hire) with no/minimal strings attached. This deal has been routinely reposted as more movies have been added, however the apparent addition/increase of advertisements has likened this service more to commercial television (which isn't appropriate as a deal post). Therefore, despite the popularity of these posts, they appear in breach of our guidelines. Therefore this will be the last deal post for SBS on Demand, any future posts will be moved to the free websites forum. Should you have any feedback about this, please do so within the site discussion forum (our guidelines are mostly developed from community feedback). Thanks

      The Guard, The Interview, Good Night And Good Luck, Oldboy (if you don't mind subtitles, but it's SBS, you shouldn't), The Woodsman (never got a proper release because it's Kevin Bacon playing a full on creepy paedophile) and Love the Beast (if you're into cars at all)

      and back in the day, they used to have the movie guy on SBS (no idea if he's still there) who'd introduce the movie then say a few words afterwards. One night, the movie finished and he goes "well, that was (profanity) up". Fairly certain it was The Night Porter. So obviously that's the best movie in there.

    Pre internet days, where you would flick over to SBS in hope of getting a little European glimpse of a naked lady in the early 90's……

    And there was those random 'jackpot' moments where you got some weird "arthouse" film with even more.

    Good times.

      I used to watch SBS in the 90's but for some reason all I seemed to come across were the manga/anime series and the Hong Kong action films. Wonder where Des Mangan is now. Never watched SBS live again after they refused to get rid of the ad breaks, and just boycotted TV in general since 2010.

        Care to elaborate on why you believe that to be the case?

      • [Deactivated] on 21/03/2017 - 12:21

        Agree. After all, adults capable of intelligent thought will find it impossible to differentiate between the extremes depicted in movies and real people struggling to come to grips with the modern world. By the way there are plenty of people across the globe who manage to preserve and celebrate their own culture and embrace others without losing their own identities or pigeon-holing/stereotyping/marginalising others.

    Easy to watch without adverts, e.g. on Kodi or browser with adblock.

    More of the LGTBI and Indigenous type stuff these days, but still plenty of the old skin flicks :-)
    Even the kids' movies have boobies: http://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/video/833499715725/extraordin…

    Better picture quality than iView, and lots of great TV and movies. Especially Australian and foreign language of course.

    Too bad most of their content is at 360p.
    Makes my eyes bleed.

    • Fappo on 16/03/2017 - 15:16

      I watched a couple of things on there last week and it was nowhere near that bad. 720p is my guess.

      • Viper8 on 16/03/2017 - 20:26

        Actually according to SBS their highest quality requires 1mbps or about 400MB per hour.
        That is officially below standard definition (480p).

        • Duff5000 on 17/03/2017 - 10:40

          Official? You cant really imply resolution (like 480p) from bps.

        • Viper8 on 17/03/2017 - 11:00

          @Duff5000:
          Actually you can, unless they're using a different codec/compression to literally everyone else.

        • Duff5000 on 17/03/2017 - 15:14

          @Viper8:
          Bit rate is separate to resolution though. You can easily have a 720 steam at a higher bit rate than a 1080 stream.

          While generally higher rez will often end up with higher bite rate it isnt that simple. There is no standard setting everyone uses. You could guess but it isn't really a reliable way to determine resolution.

        • Viper8 on 18/03/2017 - 10:37

          @Duff5000:

          Yes, and to get 720p at such a low bit rate would result in compression so bad that you would beg for regular 480p.

          Point is, the image is shit on SBS. It's simply not possible to get a good image on 1mbps. 720p on ANY other platform requires at least three times that bit rate.

        • Duff5000 on 18/03/2017 - 17:00

          @Viper8:

          Where did you get the 400MB / hour figure from anyway? Their FAq's say: "60 minute video - up to 675MB of data"
          That seems pretty reasonable.

          The most commonly available tv torrents are about 350mb per hour @ ~ 720x400. Sbs are running around twice that bit rate according to their faqs.

          I agree though, some of the shows do look quite low res, others look fine though. Maybe some are only available in lower resolution?

    • retiredfeline on 16/03/2017 - 15:28

      I think it autosenses your connection's bandwidth. It was sometimes bad when I was leeching off a neighbour's Telstra Air.

      • Viper8 on 16/03/2017 - 19:12

        Probably.
        Everything else streams at a constant 720p with no buffering for me (4mbps).
        Yet all of the catch up TV apps stream at ~360p. Shit optimisation I guess.

      • bargaino on 17/03/2017 - 14:47

        Web client says "1500M" . I'm guessing h264.
        Picture quality is good most of the time, but in some scenes you can see it fail. e.g. water scenes (the usual suspect).

        Clearly far better than ABC iView.

    Even at $0, I suspect that's priced too high for this movie.
