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.

Death Race 2000 (1975)
An action film directed by Paul Bartel, starring David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone.
In an annual road race, competitors try to get to the finish line first while killing as many pedestrians as possible. A group of rebels sets out to sabotage this race.
Carradine just reeks of awesome and Stallone adds his unique style to make the characters great. The plot was a little cheesy, but relevant to the way the world works these days. The women's breasts were absolutely fantastic! Giant jugs and no mosquito bites. The pace was as fast as the cars were supposed to be driving. I'm rating this o.k. because despite all of these factors, it wasn't fun to watch. The style was shallow and the production value sucked.
