There's a couple of them. The biggest and best (as far as I know) is:

 

telnet ukanaix.cc.ukans.edu  (login: www)  needs vt100

    then look under "by Subject" then "Movies"

 

If you have a WWW browser you can reach it at:

http://www.msstate.edu/Movies/

 

This info sampled from the Movie Database FAQ usually available at newsgroups:

rec.arts.movies,alt.cult-movies,rec.arts.sf.movies,alt.answers,rec.answers
