Antichrist
Scored from 446 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2000s (7,847 peers).
Summary
A couple retreats to a remote cabin to cope with the grief of their child's accidental death. As they attempt to heal, disturbing psychological and supernatural events begin to unfold, testing their relationship and sanity.
Released in 2009, Antichrist is a horror, drama and thriller film. Its certificate is Unrated. It was directed by Lars von Trier. Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg head the billed cast. Its country of origin is listed as Denmark. It runs 1h 44m.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,846 2000s films, not against the whole corpus. The calibrated figure is built from 446 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 462 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Antichrist lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against Films · 2000s (7,847 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 446.
