If you are a fan of the horror movie genre, it seems like a great time to be alive. We say so because a US-based company is offering $1,300 (nearly Rs 95,800) to do what you love most: watch horror movies. FinanceBuzz is on the hunt for what they call a Horror Movie Heart Rate Analyst. The job of the analyst will entail watching 13 scary movies in October while wearing a Fitbit. The smartwatch will be used to monitor the heart rate of the viewer as they watch 13 of the scariest films ever made, the finance company said. In a press release, the organisation said that the objective behind the exercise was to determine whether the budget of a movie has an impact on the "effectiveness" it has on the viewers. The company's call for the position is worded as: “Wanted: A horror lover for hire who is brave enough to watch 13 scary movies to find out whether high-budget horror movies deliver more scares than low-budget ones.” The company added, “We'll pay the hired Horror Movie Heart Rate Analyst $1,300 and send them a Fitbit to record their heart rate.” It further said, “You'll help us discover whether or not a movie's budget impacts just how dread-inducing it can be by wearing a Fitbit to monitor your heart rate while you work your way through the list of 13 movies.” In addition to this, the viewer will also be required to rank the movies based on “your prediction of the size of their production budgets.”
