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.

Rubin and Ed (1991)
A black comedy directed by Trent Harris, starring Crispin Glover.
A shut-in's mother takes his stereo away until he goes out and finds a friend. A pyramid scheme salesman has to find a person to bring into the business. The 2 meet and go on a quest to bury a cat in the desert before going to a business meeting.
This was strange in that type of way that leaves the viewer asking "why?". The style reminded me of Napoleon Dynamite. There's not much else to say. It gets points for weirdness, so I'm saying adequate.
