The Nylon Noose (German: Die Nylonschlinge) is a 1963 West German mystery crime film directed by Rudolf Zehetgruber and starring Dietmar Schönherr, Helga Sommerfeld and Laya Raki.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Albert Bollinger.[2] Filmed in Germany but set in Britain, it was made to imitate the success of the Edgar Wallace Krimi adaptations produced by Rialto Film.
Synopsis
When the lights go up in a Soho striptease joint, the body of an undercover Scotland Yard detective is discovered having been strangled with a noose made of nylon.
