Stephen Geoffreys
- Actor
- Producer
- Director
Stephen Geoffreys made a strong and distinct impression with his
winning blend of wild energy and manic intensity that he brought to a
handful of hugely enjoyable comedies and horror films made throughout
the 1980s. He was born Stephen Geoffrey Miller on November 22, 1964, in
Cincinnati, Ohio. Geoffreys first began acting at a performing arts
high school in Cincinnati and attended acting classes at New York
University. Geoffreys gave an excellent and inspired performance as
obnoxious horror movie geek "Evil" Ed Thompson in the terrific
Vampire, vous avez dit vampire ? (1985). Stephen
displayed a real flair for comedy with his amusing turns as the antsy
Williams in Tutti frutti (1985)
and the nerdy Wendell in
Vacances de folie (1985).
Other memorable roles include persecuted wimp Hoax in
La ligne du diable (1988), hardened inmate Roach
in the dreary haunted prison dud
The Chair (1988), and slimy drug dealer
Cookie in Moon 44 (1990). Geoffreys did
guest appearances on the TV anthology shows
Histoires fantastiques (1985) and
La cinquième dimension (1985).
Stephen has also had a very respectable stage career: he's acted in the
Off-Broadway productions "The Human Comedy" (Geoffreys was nominated
for a Broadway Tony Award for Best Actor for the subsequent Broadway
production of this play), "Maggie/Magalita," and "Songs on the
Shipwrecked Sofa." In a startling and unexpected career move, Geoffreys
wound up acting in numerous gay hardcore porno pictures under the
pseudonyms Sam Ritter and Stephan Bordeaux. Outside of acting,
Geoffreys writes short stories and is an avid bodybuilder. After a
regrettably lengthy absence from the big screen, Stephen Geoffreys made
a welcome comeback with a co-starring role in the indie fright feature
Sick Girl (2007).
