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.

Tremors series (1990 - 2004)
A science fiction directed by Ron Underwood, S. S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, starring Michael Gross.
Monsters appear from underground and begin to kill people in unpopulated areas. A small team of assorted people fight them. The first film takes place in a desert in America, The second happens in Mexico, the third returns to the same small town and the fourth is in that same small town far in the past.
I remember watching some of these when I was younger. What a youth, Tremors, Pet Sematary and Nightmare on Elm Street... These films are very cheesy, the main cheese coming from repetition of the plot and monster guts splashing everywhere. The entertainment value is relatively high though. As the films are lame, but funny-cheesy, I'm rating them adequate.
