Come with me if you want to watch the Terminator movies online, as we run through the iconic franchise with our The Terminator streaming guide.
The Terminator movie franchise boasts some of the best sci-fi movies amongst its ranks… and some not so great ones too. Started by world-renowned director James Cameron in 1984, and spanning six installments (and one TV series) in total, viewers have watched, gasped, laughed, and fallen in love with the cyborg assassins of this futuristic world. We’re talking 2029 which is really not that far off now, but let’s place existential dread aside for a moment…

With each reboot comes a new experience that honestly has to be seen to be believed.
So, we’ve put together the ultimate The Terminator streaming guide that will reveal everything you need to know about streaming, buying, or renting the Terminator movies online. And, if you’re thinking about watching them all, and we don’t see why you wouldn’t be, perhaps it’s time to check out our The Terminator movies, ranked for our definitive list of the best and worst Terminator movies in the franchise.
