A soul-stirring visionary operating in the film and digital workspace.

Myles Erfurth is a filmmaker whose lifelong devotion to horror has shaped a career defined by bold vision, technical mastery, and an unflinching desire to push the genre forward. Born with a camera practically fused to his hands, Erfurth first fell in love with the macabre at age five after watching Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man. His fascination deepened with Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, sparked a creative obsession. By twelve, he was already building worlds of his own through stop-motion films starring his action figures.

After a short time in film school, Erfurth’s talent was recognized when he was recruited by ABC and brought to Los Angeles. There, he developed a reputation as a relentless visual craftsman, operating cameras for ABC, HBO, Showtime, and feature films such as In Time and Big Momma’s House 3. His distinctive feel for tension, movement, and atmosphere quickly set him apart from others in the field.

Working between Miami and Los Angeles, Erfurth expanded into directing, editing, and creative direction. He became known for combining brutal genre storytelling with sleek and innovative visuals. His interactive horror feature The Silver Stream, starring Bill Moseley and members of Ice Nine Kills, became an underground sensation and won Best Sound Design at the HorrorHound International Film Festival.

Beyond film work, Erfurth co-created the character and mask known as “Silence” for Ice Nine Kills. The mask was later licensed by Trick-or-Treat Studios and achieved global success among horror fans. This milestone helped solidify Erfurth as a creative force whose influence extends beyond the screen and into the broader culture of the genre.

His upcoming feature Pandemic Sex Party is currently in post-production. The film is set in a remote desert compound on the eve of a global lockdown. A group of influencers arrive for one final celebration, unaware that a masked and unrelenting killer is hunting them with a deep hatred for the world they represent. The tone is raw and claustrophobic and pays homage to the brutal intensity of classic 1970s survival horror.

With his fearless approach, distinctive voice, and deep respect for the lineage of the genre, Myles Erfurth stands among the new generation of horror directors who carry the creative torch. His work continues to terrify, disturb, and excite audiences around the world.
