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.

Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey (1991)
A science fiction comedy directed by Peter Hewitt.
Evil robot doubles of a pair of rock musicians are created and sent back through time to prevent them from succeeding. The heroes are killed by their robot doubles and go through hell, into heaven and back to the real world to defeat the "evil robot us". Along the way, they befriend the grim reaper and a pair of alien scientists.
This is the good kind of cheese. The soundrack is littered with late '80s/early '90s metal and the characters are good. The plot is way cheesed out, but the pace is good and the style is fitting. I'm rating this adequate.
