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.

Wind Chill (2007)
A horror directed by Gregory Jacobs, produced by George Clooney.
A young man tries to get a girl to fall in love with him by giving her a ride home from college. They become stranded on a side road and are tormented by ghosts.
I can imagine the filmmakers meeting to discuss thins: "Let's make a mediocre horror film that is so predictable and pointless that the masses will be lulled into acceptance." There was nothing original about it. All of the elements of the film had been used before many times. It's like the filmmakers swallowed other cheesy and pointless horror films in order to shit this one out. I'm rating it bad for mediocrity. 2007 was a very bad year in cinema.
