ENTER THE DANGEROUS MIND enters the mind of Jim (Jake Hoffman) - a socially awkward EDM musician with a traumatic past, a tenuous grip on reality, and voices in his head. When he meets Wendy (Nikki Reed), he thinks he might finally have a shot at happiness. But as long-buried memories begin to stir, and his crush turns into obsession, Jim finds himself looking into a violent abyss... and he won't be going alone.

“Good music in a film is invaluable, and finding someone who understands that connection is just as important,” says Enter The Dangerous Mind's Director, Nikki Reed. “Reza is a genius in every sense of the word. What he brings to everything he is involved in is nothing short of magical.”

“The music was part of this film when it was just a script,” explained Safinia. “The directors had a very specific vision and we worked together to give both the music and the film a feel that was not just confined to EDM, although obviously that is a strong influence. The film is about psychological trauma and so they didn’t want the music to be euphoric and clubby, but rather harness the intensity of EDM and turn it into dramatic score.”

Reza Safinia is a composer and film producer raised in London and living in LA. Prior to working in film, he was a Universal Music songwriter and record producer/engineer with work spanning from pop (Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears) to underground (Freestylers, Ms Dynamite). Safinia’s textured approach to composing fuses orchestra with industrial ambience, and electronica, to create a tactile sound serving the image.
