$10,000 Reward If You Can Watch This Horror Movie
From Reuters:

A Bollywood filmmaker has issued a lucrative challenge to horror movie fans: a $10,000 reward for anyone who can watch his latest supernatural thriller, alone, in a cinema until the closing credits. Ram Gopal Varma's "Phoonk 2," a sequel to his 2008 film of the same name, is about an evil spirit that traumatizes a family.

"Anyone who says the movie cannot scare him is going to be put in a theater by himself," Varma told reporters in Mumbai at an event to promote the movie. Varma said the film fan who steps up to the challenge will be wired up to a heart monitoring machine as well as a camera that ensures they keep their eyes open during the whole movie. Readings from the machines will be shown live on a screen outside the cinema, Varma said, and if the contestant succeeds, they will win 500,000 rupees (approximately $10,850).

It's a good way to lose $10,000 easily. And even if it later left me emotionally scarred, afraid of the dark and a chronic bedwetter, I'd still have 10,000 little comforters.

For real! I would totally do it. I could use 10 grand.

Though I just got to thinking... with the camera and heart rate monitor, I bet they have some weird stipulation to keep it from being too easy - like, "Oh your heart rate was too fast. You don't win." :reddisgust:

Exactly! Its probably jus a trick or you wouldn't even get all the money.

yea I smell Trickery...

Good thing he's not in the US saying that: we'd be taking his money all day.

Lets go! But you know what? I agree...it cant possibly be just that easy. So there probably is some hidden rules.
