Is it legal to put someone else’s restoration of a PD film online? For example, Criterion just released an HD restoration of Night of the Living Dead. Since the movie itself is public domain, would it be legal for someone to rip the video from the Blu-Ray and upload it to archive.org or something?

I have no plans to actually do this, I’m just curious.
