Harry Jack Revier (16 March 1890 – 13 August 1957) was an independent American director, producer and first generation exploitation film maker best known for his sound films The Lost City (1935), Lash of the Penitentes (1936) and Child Bride (1938).
American director and producer of serials and early exploitation films, as well as low-budget "quota quickies" in England during the 1930s. He began in films as an exhibitor in Utah and then became a cameraman. By the early 1910s he made and released films through his own production company, the Revier Motion Picture Co., and distributed through Motion Pictures Distributors and Sales, the precursor of Universal and Mutual. Revier seemed to have preferred notoriety to fame, tending to opt for sensationalism (frequently violating the prevailing Hays Code) rather than achieving any measure of technical expertise or eliciting particularly good performances from his actors.
