Movie Word Search Database
Below you'll find links to hundreds of word search puzzles on the world of cinema. These puzzles are organized by year of movie release and are printer-friendly. You'll also find movie trivia and quizzes on some of these links.
We have two types of word searches. The first type hides lists of movie titles. The second hides terms associated with particular movies. The current count is 240 word searches.
The plan is to encompass every year of cinema from the current year all the way back to 1914. Thus far we have puzzles on movies from 1980 through 1999. But we are always working on other years. This means this page is constantly updated. So be sure to check back later to see how we're doing. As Arnold says in The Terminator from 1984, "I'll be back with more puzzles."
Well, we might be taking some liberties with that quote. But you know what we mean. 😜
