Viktor Ponrepo (actual name Dismas Šlambor, 16 June 1858 Prague[1] – December 1926 Prague) was a Czech magician and a pioneer of the cinema. He founded the first permanent cinema in Prague in Karlova ulice (Charles street).

His artist's surname is derived from the castle Bon Repos (French for good rest) near Stará Lysá.

The cinema of the Czech National Film Archive in Prague, Kino Ponrepo, is named after him.[2]
