Steven C. Miller is an American screenwriter, editor, and director.

Directing career

Steven attended Full Sail Real World Education where he majored in Film and Television Production.

His feature film debut, Automaton Transfusion was made for $30,000.[1] The film was purchased and released in 2008 worldwide by Dimension Films.[2] The next two years, Miller found himself in "development hell" with such projects as a remake of the horror comedy Motel Hell.[3]

In 2011, Miller decided to get back to his roots, work outside of the studio system, and shot two independent low budget features. The first was the thriller The Aggression Scale, which was described by IndieWire as "Home Alone with more death".[4] The film premiered at South by Southwest, where it was purchased by Anchor Bay Entertainment[5] It was released worldwide in 2012. The second was the Amblin Entertainment inspired Under the Bed, which had its world premiere at Fantasia Festival. The film was called "a blood-soaked horror extravaganza" by JoBlo.com.[6] It was purchased and will be released July 19, 2013, by XLRATOR. Miller then set his sights on Christmas slasher Silent Night, the remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night.[7] Fearnet stated "this straightforward and scrappy little remake is somehow more entertaining than half of what passes for 'wide release' horror movies these days. Toss in some fine cinematography, some cool musical touches, and just enough 'in jokes' to keep the hardcore horror fans happy, Silent Night certainly isn't great, but it is consistently fun, and that's more than enough—especially for a horror remake."[8] Silent Night was released by Anchor Bay Entertainment.

Music videos

He also has directed music videos for such bands as Blinded Black and Tokyo Rose.[9]
