In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

Monkey Bone (2001)
A comedy fantasy directed Henry Selick, starring Brendan Fraser.
A cartoonist gets into a car accident and slips into a coma. In his coma, he goes to a fantasy world and his cartoon character steals his body.
The soundtrack was utter crap (besides the squirrel nut zippers tune) and the ending credits were the longest I've ever seen with the worst music I've ever heard. The monsters in coma-land were slightly amusing, but otherwise this was a total waste of time. I just don't get absurdist physical comedy. I'm rating it shit.
