Singapore Sling (1990)

In the suffocating darkness of a stormy night, Singapore Sling, a battle-weary private detective with a past steeped in melancholy, finds himself on the doorstep of an opulent mansion, his existence scarred by a bullet and tainted by alcohol. His silent pursuit is for Laura, a specter of love from his disappeared past, a phantom secretary he's been trailing for years, only to stumble upon a macabre tableau of crime in the heart of the city's outskirts. Within the confines of this palatial nightmare, he becomes an unwilling participant in a grotesque dance of decadence and depravity. His hosts, a delightfully deranged Mother and Daughter duo, weave a tormenting web of perverse games and blood-soaked rituals. Their twisted pleasure, a sadistic symphony under the tempest's violent crescendo, ensnares the unsuspecting detective, pushing him deeper into a pit of torture and murder. Yet, Singapore Sling, a man whose love once bloomed for a corpse, has nothing left to lose. He's willing to sacrifice his life to unravel Laura's enigma, to unearth the sinister secrets buried beneath the mansion's grandeur. The question remains: will the wicked games of the demonic duo lead to his liberation or will he find redemption in the icy clutches of death? As the storm rages on, the walls of the mansion echo with the haunting truth, waiting to be discovered.

Singapore Sling is a comedy movie featuring Meredyth Herold.
