imdbkw
Query IMDB according to keyword. Keywords are space-delimited, order-sensitive, and compound keywords must be connected by hyphens. ie. To search 'zombie' and 'kung fu' keywords, use 'imdbkw zombie kung-fu'. Note: 'imdbkw zombie kung-fu' and 'imdbkw kung-fu zombie' will yield different results. If a keyword vanishes from your query (as in, you search for 'astronauts' and 'gummi-bears' but only 'astronauts' shows up in the IMDB page, it is likely that IMDB does not have that keyword as you enter…
