The House
Scored from 176 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2020s (7,930 peers).
Summary
A stop-motion anthology of three darkly comic tales set in the same house across different eras: a 19th-century family is lured into an unsettling new home by a mysterious architect, a present-day anthropomorphic rat developer struggles with infestations and demanding buyers at his open house, and a future-set cat landlord clings to her flooded property and eccentric tenants as the world drowns.
The House (2022) is a film IMDb files under the animation, comedy and drama genres. Inside comedy it is classed as Dark Comedy.
7,929 other films from the 2020s form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 176 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 178 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 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 · 2020s (7,930 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 176.
