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.

The Tunnel (2011)
An Australian horror directed by Carlo Ledesma.
A reporter hears of conflict over using underground areas as water storage because of the homeless people living in them and disappearing. She chases after the story and sneaks a film crew into the area to investigate.
This was the scariest thing I've seen in a LONG time. It was done Blair Witch style, with a news camera and a hand-held, so it looks very real. Alternating with this is interview segments that make it look more like a documentary. The underground maze gives the film a great creepy setting and provides the possibility of the characters becoming lost. It scared the shit out of me, so I'm rating it best.
