MIKE HAS A VISITOR short film poster - sleep paralysis horror score by Zazie Kanwar-Torge

MIKE HAS A VISITOR is a sleep paralysis horror short directed by Marco Saikaley, scored by Zazie Kanwar-Torge. Sleep paralysis is a horror of being conscious and unable to move, and the score takes that literally: it holds a single state for longer than is comfortable.

The central device is a drone that never resolves its suspension, with rhythmic material that starts and stops as if the listener's own attention is failing. Where the film escalates, the score adds pressure rather than motion — the same chord with more weight behind it.

The register is dissociative rather than violent, which is why the writing stays close to the studio's psychological palette: detuned strings, breathing textures and sub-audible movement under a floor of near-silence.
