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.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963)
A comedy directed by Stanley Kramer.
A man crashes his car and tells the witnesses that there is a large sum of money buried under "a big dubiah" in a state park near Mexico. The witnesses all race to get the money first.
This film is like a straight-edge version of the Cheech and Chong movies. Everyone talks at the same time, they all yell non-stop and they all act like retards. At least in Cheech and Chong's films, we can blame this behavior on the drugs, but these people aren't on any. There is no character development at all and the plot was not very good. I'm rating it poor because I didn't like it.
