REM is the period of sleep that is associated with dreaming. If during the time that you are experiencing a dream and you are suddenly woken up then you will experience REM sleep paralysis.

When the disruption is sudden the speed with which the body and the brain reacts is not the same and you are likely to experience the paralysis.

Why does it occur when you are having dreams? This is simply because dreams are not real and you should not be reacting to them.
