I don't plan to add keywords to our database. I don't plan to search the descriptions either.
Already in 2011 I knew I wouldn't add those features:

All our searches are instant. I don't want to add a search that would take dozens of seconds (maybe more depending on your computer speed). Furthermore, never in my life I've found a movie based on keywords. It's a very complex feature that would be hardly used => not worth it.
Anything keywords-related you have to use the tag feature.

I don't want to judge you, but it's creepy

The IMDb does it. You just have to set the search type to "keywords". It can work with multiple keywords at the same time!
https://www.imdb.com/search/keyword?keywords=serial-killer%2Cbased-on-true-story&sort=moviemeter,asc&mode=detail&page=1&ref_=kw_ref_key
You can further filter by genre, by year, by IMDb rating, etc...
