Education


Miller attended Full Sail University where he majored in film and television production.[2]



Career


His feature film debut, Automaton Transfusion (2006), was made for under $15,000; it was purchased and released worldwide by Dimension Films after premiering at the 2007 Screamfest Horror Film Festival. After signing with Aperture Entertainment and United Talent Agency, Miller was attached to direct several studio films, including a cancelled MGM remake of Motel Hell (1980).[3][4]


In 2011, Miller embarked on directing three more independent features. The first was the thriller The Aggression Scale (2012), described by IndieWire as "Home Alone with more death".[5] After premiering at South by Southwest, the film was purchased by Anchor Bay Entertainment for worldwide distribution.[6] His second project was Under the Bed (2012), referred to by JoBlo.com as "a blood-soaked horror extravaganza"; the film premiered at Fantasia Festival[7] and was acquired for release by XLrator Media. Miller's next film was the Christmas slasher film Silent Night (2012), a remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984).[8]Fearnet stated "this straightforward and scrappy little remake is somehow more entertaining than half of what passes for 'wide release' horror movies these days."[9]Silent Night, like The Aggression Scale, was released by Anchor Bay.


Miller made a shift to mainstream filmmaking with four films produced by Emmett/Furla/Oasis and released by Lionsgate Premiere: Extraction (2015), Marauders (2016), Arsenal (2017) and First Kill (2017). Miller had his fifth collaboration with EFO and Lionsgate through the sequel Escape Plan 2: Hades (2018).[10][11] Through these titles, Miller has collaborated several times with (in addition to Willis) Dave Bautista, Adrian Grenier and Johnathan Schaech.


Miller's latest project, action-thriller Live, began production in Birmingham, Alabama in May 2018.[12][13] The film will star Aaron Eckhart as a disgraced police officer seeking an escaped kidnapee after killing her abductor. Courtney Eaton will co-star as an online reporter filming the chase in real time.[14][15]
