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.

World of Drunken Master (1979)
A kung fu by Joseph Kuo Nan-Hong.
A pair of young men who are caught stealing grapes learn "the 18 falls of the drunken immortals" from their master. After a fight in which their master dies, they are separated for 30 years. Both men then arrive at a meeting location indicated by their mutual romantic interest whom they believed to be dead.
The plot was obviously terrible and the characters unidentifiable. There was a lot of kung fu, but fighting for no reason doesn't make a good film. I have to rate this crap because that's what it is.
