Churchill Films was a producer and distributor of direct-to-video films founded by Robert Churchill and Sy Wexler (1916-2005) in 1946 as Churchill Wexler Film Productions.

They have produced The Mouse and the Motorcycle (1986) based on the 1965 book by Beverly Cleary and many other award-winning children's films.

Churchill Films was acquired by American Educational Products in 1994. The Churchill Films catalog is now part of Discovery Education. In December 2009, The Jungle (1967), a film distributed by Churchill Films in 16mm for the educational film market, was named to the National Film Registry.
