Dublin Nightmare is a 1958 British thriller film directed by John Pomeroy and starring William Sylvester, Marla Landi and Richard Leech. The film is a low budget quota quickie shot at Twickenham Studios.
Irish nationalists plans to seize a security van to raise money for their movement. A photographer begins to investigate the raid, as one of his friends was murdered during it.
TV Guide called it "a routine crime drama"; while Britmovie described it as a "compact b-movie based on the novel by Robin Estridge and effectively directed by John Pomeroy that transposes a Third Man style plot to 1950s Ireland."
