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.

Ernest Goes to Camp (1987)
A comedy directed by John R. Cherry III, starring Jim Varney.
A mechanic at a camp becomes a counselor for the group of children brought there from juvenile hall. When the camp is threatened by a strip mining project, the children help him defeat the construction crew.
I think that Jim Carrey owes a lot to Jim Varney. They are both modern physical comedy actors and both use extreme comedy and stunts to do their job. This is one of the movies that I grew up watching, so it has sentimental value. That's why I'm rating it good. So what if I'm biased?
