We just got word of a new Swedish horror pilot entitled Marianne. Filip Tegstedt’s fick is about the fuzzy line between reality and fantasy, with roots in old scandinavian folklore. Production is set for May and July 2010. Twitch discovered the following synopsis. Marianne is a psychological horror film about a broken family in Ostersund, which balance the line between fantasy and reality.” The film’s main character Krister experiences a phenomenon called sömnparalys, a condition where you can wake up paralyzed, while you can know that other people in the room. Krister’s wife just died and that he is haunted by nightmares and guilt over its 16-year-old daughter. Then comes an avenging woman up at night, a woman who he knows is dead. She moves into his house when he is in a half awake. The point is that you do not know if Krister seeing things that really happens or if it is known as hypnopompa hallucinations and sömnparalys who strikes fear in him.
