Cocktail für eine Leiche (Originaltitel: Rope, deutsch: „Seil“ oder „Strick“, in Anspielung auf das Mordwerkzeug zu Beginn) ist ein US-amerikanischer Thriller von Alfred Hitchcock aus dem Jahr 1948, der auf dem Theaterstück Party für eine Leiche (Rope) von Patrick Hamilton basiert. Er gilt als eines von Hitchcocks experimentellsten Werken, da er als Kammerspiel mit nur wenigen Figuren ausschließlich in derselben Kulisse einer Wohnung und scheinbar ohne Schnitt gedreht wurde.
