Land of the Dead
Scored from 504 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2000s (7,847 peers).
Summary
In a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the undead, survivors live in an isolated, fortified city protected by an electromagnetic fence. As zombie hordes grow stronger and breach the defenses, a group of soldiers and mercenaries must fight for survival while navigating internal political conflict between the wealthy elite and the working class.
George A. Romero directed Land of the Dead, a horror, action and thriller film from 2005. It is rated R. It stars Dennis Hopper, John Leguizamo and Asia Argento. The runtime is 93 minutes. It was made in the United States.
504 IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 522 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 5,799 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 7,846 other films from the 2000s form the cohort it is ranked inside.
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 Land of the Dead 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 504.
