this groundbreaking experiment.
Under close medical supervision the chosen patients will be strapped
to a chair in front of one of Mayhem's scariest horror films and
have their heart rate, facial muscles, expressions and sweat levels
monitored and the results projected 'live' outside the auditorium.
