“Horrifically justified, the nightmare evolves to where I had predicted. I have got nothing else to say.”

Synapse Films has made it known that prominent Greek independent filmmaker Nikos Nikolaidis has passed away. An accomplished author, poet, and screenwriter, in addition to his directorial duties, Nikolaidis was best known in North America for Singapore Sling, a deviant black and white neo-noir Greek tragedy. Obliterating the lines between genres to bring his anarchic vision to the screen, Nikolaidis was considered by many to stand among the ranks of cinema’s great surrealists.
