Many of us love watching movies and relaxing. But there’s nothing like a good old scary movie to get your adrenaline pumping! What if your dietician asked you to stop dieting and watch horror movies instead? For some of you, it will be great news! Research has proven that watching a scary horror movie might be an easy way to burn as many calories as a half an hour brisk walk. The scarier the movie, the more calories you are likely to burn! The reason for the same is because scary movies cause our heart rates to soar.
Cinema has come a long way from the chilling story of child possession, attack of ghouls and poltergeists etc. While a full-length horror film might make you burn quite a bit of excess fat, even feature or short films trending nowadays have the potential to scare the hell out of anyone.
