Nightmare is a 1956 American film noir crime film directed by Maxwell Shane and starring Edward G. Robinson, Kevin McCarthy and Connie Russell.

Production

The film was the first production of Pine-Thomas-Shane Productions, a new iteration of Pine-Thomas Productions, which had been based at Paramount from 1940 to 1954. The company signed a contract with United Artists, but William H. Pine died. The company was renamed Pine-Thomas-Shane to reflect the contribution of long-time screenwriter Maxwell Shane, and the titular Pine was Howard Pine, William Pine's son.

Billy May and His Orchestra perform in the film as themselves. They also provide the theme song, "Nightmare in New Orleans."

Although Edward G. Robinson does not portray the hypnotist in the film, he was promoted as such in the film's promotional materials.
