Summary
A young couple retreats to a family beach house on the Atlantic coast hoping to repair their strained relationship, only to find another older couple already staying there. After an awkward but cordial evening together, a strange mist rolls in from the ocean, bringing with it a creeping ecological horror that begins to transform the environment and everyone exposed to it.
The Beach House (2019) is a film IMDb files under the drama, horror and mystery genres.
Rotten Tomatoes carries a separate audience for the same title, 57 of whom clear the calibration test. 13,058 other films from the 2010s form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 136 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 138 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 The Beach House 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 · 2010s (13,059 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 136.
