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.

Shaolin Martial Arts (1974)
Kung fu directed by Chang Cheh.
Disciples of Shaolin martial arts schools are defeated and dishonored. 2 waves of students leave to train with great masters in hopes of defeating the hired experts of Qing school.
The audio was in Chinese with English subtitles. The video was good.
check out: Did this film inspire "Kill Bill" a little bit?
I like kung fu training movies. I especially like when they talk about and practice the animal styles. Add some similarities to "Kill Bill" and we've got a winner. Great fu flick.
