Jack Hill (born 1933) is an American film director, noted for his work in the exploitation film genre.
Quentin Tarantino has described Jack Hill as “The Howard Hawks of exploitation filmmaking” and “The greatest living American director”. Hill is a living legend of the American B-movie and his discoveries include Pam Grier (who starred in four of his films - from The Big Doll House through to Foxy Brown), Sid Haig (who acts in most of Hill's classics), Jill Banner (who starred in Hill's Spider Baby) and Ellen Burstyn (who starred in Pit Stop).
