Horror Classic 'Jaws' Now Streaming For Free Online

As we get closer to October (or, for movie enthusiasts, horror season), more new and old horror movies start to pop up on streaming services. The classics have bounced around to various locations but are usually somewhere if you know where to look. The universal horror essential Jaws just so happens to have gone away from paid services into free (with ads) territory! Scroll down to see where you can watch Jaws for free right now.

In a small beach town just about to head into the money-making season, a great white shark starts targeting unsuspecting swimmers and viciously murdering them. To save the town, three men make it their mission to stop this menace at all costs.

• Roy Scheider - Police Chief Martin Brody

• Richard Dreyfuss - Matt Hooper 

• Robert Shaw - Quint

• Murray Hamilton - Mayor Larry Vaughn

In short, Jaws changed horror films as well as all future blockbusters forever. The film's simple premise, intricate layers of characters, impressive technology, and flawless suspenseful direction from Steven Spielberg made all other thrillers surrounding Jaws feel overwrought or underdeveloped. Technically, it can be watched by kids (and absolutely was when it came out in 1975) but is scary when watched from any age. Most infamously, Jaws created a generation of film viewers who refused to go into the ocean. Thanks to Spielberg and composer John Williams' brilliant work, the idea of what could be lurking in the water was as scary as the shark itself.

You can find Jaws on any rental service and the occasional subscription (AMC+ of all places has it right now), but the good news is that it is completely free to everyone on Tubi. Head to Tubi right now and you'll be watching Jaws in under five minutes! Enjoy!
