Robert Piet Houwer (born 13 December 1937) is a Dutch film producer. Houwer frequently collaborated with Paul Verhoeven and produced most of his Dutch movies. However, they shared a very antagonistic relationship that came to a definitive end in 1983. Houwer never quite enjoyed the artistic and commercial successes he had during the Verhoeven years. In fact, three movies he produced are considered among the worst in Dutch cinema: De gulle Minnaar (1990), De Zeemeerman (1996) and Het woeden der gehele wereld (2006).
