Summary

Shallow Grave is a 1987 horror and thriller film.

Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 3,140 1980s films, not against the whole corpus. Only 25 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 26 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
