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.

Sliver (1993)
A psychological thriller directed by Phillip Noyce.
A rich and successful woman moves into a large apartment building and falls in love with the building's owner who has the whole place under surveilence.
There was so much overt sexuality in this movie that it was almost softcore porn. Couples having sex became a common sight. What I really found odd was the fact that the building owner's walls contained Danzig and Megadeth posters, but it always seemed like he was listening to techno. Another odd thing is that the surveilence system supposedly cost millions, but it was all in black and white. I didn't hate this, but it wasn't good and there were too many of these slight oversights. I'm giving it an orange not so great rating.
