Singapore Sling (1990)

Pretty sickening, bizarre Greek film. Still can't decide whether I liked this or not, whether director Nikolaidis was out for mere shock value or something more, and so found myself bored from time to time. Upon watching, it plays out as a serious of hollow, disgusting set pieces; sexual depravity, violence, insanity, and a muddled mess of a story. However, the film is incredibly well-shot and directed, looking like some twisted, forgotten piece of 40s noir. I might give it some time and watch it again, and hope it speaks to me more than it did on first viewing.
