Stephen Geoffreys
Stephen Geoffreys is one of the most washed-up celebrities I have come across. I didn't even know who he was until someone posted a suggestion in a comment to this blog that I do a profile on Geoffreys. When I researched him, I was amazed at how low his career had sunk. Geoffreys morphed from being a mildly successful mid-1980s movie star to a feature actor in gay porn, all within the matter of a few years. (There has been much speculation that the career of fellow washed up celebrity Dustin Diamond will follow a similar trajectory, although as far as I know Diamond has not yet taped any gay porn.)
Geoffreys was born Stephen Geoffrey Miller on November 22nd, 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 inspired performance as the annoying horror movie geek "Evil" Ed Thompson in the movie Fright Night.
Geoffreys displayed his comedic talents with his roles as Williams in Heaven Help Us and the dorky Wendell in Fraternity Vacation. Other memorable roles include persecuted wimp Hoax in 976-Evil, hardened inmate Roach in the crappy haunted prison flick The Chair, and slimy drug dealer Cookie in Moon 44. Geoffreys also had guest appearances on the mid-1980s TV shows Amazing Stories and The Twilight Zone.
Geoffreys' mainstream roles began to dry up by the early 1990s. Desperate to make some cash and return to the limelight, Geoffreys decided that his best career option was to move into gay porn. From the early 1990s continuing thru the beginning of the 2000s, Geoffreys appeared almost exclusively in numerous gay pornography films, where he was usually credited as "Sam Ritter" or "Stephan Bordeaux." It is not clear how many pornographic films he made because he apparently appeared in some uncredited. Geoffreys generally played the part of the bottom. He has appeared in gay porn flicks such as Mechanics bi Day, Lube Job bi Night, Latin Crotch Rockets, Transsexual Prostitutes 2, Guys Who Crave Big Cocks, and Seamen Training Day.
Geoffreys is apparently trying to return to mainstream cinema. He has a role in the upcoming horror movie Sick Girl. Here is a picture of Geoffreys on the Sick Girl set with co-star Leslie Andrews and the writer/director Eben McGarr (Writer/Director). Geoffreys is the bald guy on the right side of the picture. Apparently the gay porn lifestyle has not been kind to Geoffreys, as he looks far older than his actual age of 42.
For the reasons discussed above, Stephen Geoffreys is one washed-up celebrity!

He's looking a bit haggard for a porn star - and God only knows how tatty his ring must look after all those years as a bottom
how sad. I thought Scotty Schwartz's life story was bad.
I worked with this guy once. We had to put an anal clamp on his ring because it had been pumped so much and not even the most well endowed performer could make it a tight fit! Take heed, Screech, a life at the bottom is never that much fun!!
AHAHAH that was me who suggested him. He looks like he has AIDS now.
Who is this biatch? He looks as if he got pumped up the stump a few too many times.
why are you all being so mean to stephen? Get a life!
His character in "Fright Night" is still one of my all-time faves. He reminded me of Shaggy on "Scooby Doo." I was sorry to hear his career turned out the way it did. I am glad to know he's working on a legit project with "Sick Girl." I wish him all the luck.
I loved him in fright night!!! his dinner is in th oven mmm mmm lmao me and my cousin say that all the time haha
It's so sad how mean some of you people can be. I hope that Stephen is doing fine. He's a great talent. One day you may eat the very words you speak.
"May God bless and keep you Stephen. I think you're awesome!"

So it's worse because he was in _gay_ porn? I don't see that as any lower than straight porn. But then I don't see doing porn as doing anything wrong. I'm sure I speak for many people here when I say: bring on the washed up celebrity porn!
after much research on stephen , i descovered that he DID NOT DO GAY PORN, matter of fact this rumor caused his downfall in acting, the discovery is Stephen has a twin brother that capitalized on stephen's small fan base and was actually the porn actor

That's bullshit. He was bald and wore a hat to hide it in most of his movies and that picture of him shows him bald. Only his homophobic straight fans are the ones that say it was 'his brother' that did the porn. He did the porn, face it.
And he most likely spread the rumor it was 'my brother doing the porn' in an attempt to get back into mainstream films.

Why hasn't be been able to produce this alleged twin brother? Many people on message boards said they've been to events where fans ask Stephen if he's done the gay porn and he admits it and doesn't seem particularly proud of it.
"So it's worse because he was in _gay_ porn? I don't see that as any lower than straight porn"
it is if you're not gay! Although, I think the fact that he's willing to bend over & take it in the pooper- again & again- (and probably for a very minimal amount of money)- is pretty indicative- but i have know idea whether or not Stephen is "publicly" gay.
And omg- twin brother?! LMFAO...that is the funniest excuse ever "oh, no no- seriously guys- I have an evil twin brother- 'capitalizing on my small fan base'" I think what's even more unbelievable than his having an evil twin brother is the *boast* that he even has a fan base at all- let alone a "small one"- on which to capitalize! His own mother probably isn't even a fan- she must be oh-so-proud that her once-semi-famous son is now whoring out his ass for pennies
@kittybella, .... you're sad, to even have to stoop that low. You have to be pretty miserable in your own life to be that callous. You go out of your way to be so mean, knowing how cruel this world can be. maybe there hasn't been an area in your life that you couldn't speak about or maybe ashamed of. And if you did, hearing from someone like yourself would be a nightmare. How dare you be so cruel. He doesn't deserve that. Whether he is gay or straight, if you have ever been without work, or been in a challenging stage in your life, ... you make decisions you may regret later.
So make your judgments, jus know that you'll get the same thing back that you just put out, for your lack of compassion. And I hope you remember what you said here today.
One day on a wild drunken weekend me and some buddies got some hookers and a hotel room. Well, the girls and us got loaded so the hookers talked us into going and getting tattoos. One of the hookers was friends with this old biker dude who had his own tattoo parlor. So fast forward we all meet a tattoo artist in San Diego named Spider who swears up and down that Stephen and Barry Williams hooked up. First, they had a gay lover's fight and then they paid him a lot of money to keep it on the down low. Spider inked the tattoo on Barry Williams left butt cheek that has a fairy sprouting his wings with the caption below it that reads,"Stephen's desire!" Spider said he remembered so well because apparently Barry wanted it to be a butterfly and not a fairy. So the two of them then proceeded into a gay lover's fight at Spider's tattoo parlor in the back. Well, Spider said customers started to come in and were wondering what the whole fuss was about in back. So he had to have them come back that's when he said it dawned on him that it was Greg Brady. So when they both returned was when they gave him the extra cash to keep it on the down low and a fairy was inked. I guess Barry was the bottom man in that relationship!
No one here knows the guy personnaly. Maybe he's a great guy in real life. Don't judge him by the movies he did. We dont know the reasons why he went into porn. Maybe he saw this as the only way of getting a roof and food on the table.
Dude I can't find these porn no where....Where can I buy them. I thought he was hot and CRAZY in fright night (before becoming a vampire)I want to go back in time, and play with him sooooo bad:) WhiteNBi on myspace..please write me if you have info where I can buy these!!!!
Wow I just read all this stuff. Leave the guy alone he's just a dude. Movies don't make people, people make movies. THAT'S ALL. FrightNight is being re done by Del Toro and it will be big and Evil ed will be back on the map he was never on. You people need to get a fucking life. Dork's.
How did this guy fugg up so badly!
I have to say he looks rough. I would never have guessed just 42. He looks about 55.
Ok this must be his twin then...but I think he was cute when this was made anyhow...http://xxx.gaynet.tv/play-159131-Stephen_Geoffreys.html
I think we all make mistakes at one point or another. It is none of our bussiness what he does for a living, or has done. We need to be thankful and appreciate his contributions in the entertainment industry,period.We nor does he need our approval or condemnation.He and everyone of us are human, with flaws. I will keep him in my prayers and thoughts.Remember there is enough negativity in the world don't add to it! Let us raise each other up and enrich each other lives, and be a positive influence.

Errr, how did you know that?
This just sucks. All of you people suck. I hate my cynical crappy generation and the way we have to pretend to be too cool to dig the shit we acually enjoy. Case in point: the only appropriate response to this article is anger or depression. Mainly at being deprived of all the crazy/dorky/hilarious creep-o sidekick characters SG could have been playing during the 20 years or so he was grinding out pornography. But also.... Who ARE you cooler than thou net nerds that aren't even familiar with him, but think it's sooo funny this dude went to porn? What are you getting at? "Famous shit is cool, everything else is worthy of snarky self-satisfied scorn." You deserve nothing but Simon Pegg.
actually gay porn pays the guys more than the guys in straight porn. A few friends of mine make 100-200 a day then 500-1,000 a shoot plus expenses, room and board. If your not gay or open minded then your going to make fun or be grossed, but you don't have to be a douche about it. Truth be told he was probably making more doing porn than acting. It's not like he's making Clooney or Pitt money.
Stephen lived in my house as part of his rehab in the mid 1990s. He could be charming but he is a troubled soul. He actually waned to do porn.
I met him several times back in the winter of 84-85. He was incredibly cute, and was a rabid sexaholic. It came as no surprise that he would turn to porn, but it's too bad because he could have been as good on a sitcom as hundreds of guys who had more mainstream success. A very sad story. I would avoid saying sex ruined someone's life, but in this case, it's the only conclusion.
He's a great actor get a life people like ya'll have had a great life please!!!!
I heard hi latest cenematic master piece was call in the prinipals office with Dennis Haskins...and it was actually Dennis Haskins.
I like Stephen whether he did porn gay, straight or not. Maybe he wanted to maybe it was a misdirected "passion" who knows. He was and I am sure IS still a great actor. I saw FN last night and forgot how good he is and steals every scene he is in. And he looks fine to me so he went bald, you could tell he was going to and what's wrong with going bald. I don't think he looks that rough at all. Some people are mean. YOU GO STEPHEN!!
That poor guy, he looks horrible. He must have gotten into drugs. I also read that he wrote some books. He's a talented comedic actor, I hope he can make some kind of comeback.
Seems like he could have done something useful with his talent, but I guess its a slippery slope once you start taking it up the ass for money..
I would rather of been a somebody then a nobody. He was the best thing in the mega 80s horror film Fright Night great horror. He really stood out. Its amazing how many people on here know him so he must of made an impression on all of you. Some idiot have hang ups on other people because of their lifestyle. Well that's their problem so let them rant and rave its their energy their wasting and on what? I really don't get why people have a problem with gay people they have been here since the start of time. I think the problem is the sex between two men or women that sends these people of on a huff. Well I have news for you it will always be that way. Just remember you are the one with the problem not the people who are gay its you.
I just watched Fright Night and I LOVED HIS CHARACTER!! omfg he was so adorable. <333 Now I am crushing hard on him from that time.
This article is really harsh. He can't help the way things turned out. There is nothing wrong with doing gay porn, it just has the negative effect of screwing up your hollywood movie career. And yeah he does look rough for his age, but he probably lived a rough life. Maybe partying/drugs stuff like that. And he did not have one of those faces that was going to look well in old age.
Anyway I still think he seems like a nice guy, I wish the best for him! I will definitely rec the film to all my friends in high school.
Some of these replies are freaking Hilarious!! I only came here because I was watching 1-900-evil and looked it up on IMMD and it said they guy did Gay Porn..I didn't believe it at first..but Man after reading these comments..This is some funny shit..especially the one guy's comments about sucking a few cocks and what's a B-job between buddies..LOL A Comic writer for Dave Chappelle can't touch these comments..Bwahahahah!!!
Look, I loved him in his roles from the 90s. For all the comments being made about his "Choice" to begin doing gay porn, that is for him to decided. I really do not see how you can dog a man for wanting to entertain and pay his own bills. Nothing wrong with that. If he makes it back in to main stream, I will have to give his movies a try because I doubt they worried about diction and timing in porn movies. Here's to you Mr. 976-EVIL....Call me.
Really, really Sad, I'm saddened to hear and to know that his career sunk this low fir to turn to Gay Porn. I honestly like him in the role as Evil in the movie Fright Night. He makes the mivie what it is. I kind if wished I hadn't googled his bio I wouldn't want to know about his credited work fir Gay Porn, but from the looks of it he has sone films still in post production so I think his luck has changed a bit these days and I hope all the best to him I hope he gets sone if the biggest parts and roles the movie industry has to offer.
Making porn of any kind was his big mistake. He should have pursued live theater. He had comedic talent and could easily have become an intelligent comedian. Who's going to take him seriously now? Sad.
Was about to watch At Close Range and saw Stephen's name for the first time in many years. Was in the same college with him for a year in St. Louis. He was a few years younger/didn't really know him. (Thought his major was dance?) There were rumors then that he was sleeping with one of the instructors, and similar rumors after he left and started getting B-movie rolls. Only rumors though, so even though I knew him, I still don't make that call, even after all the crazy hateful stuff y'all have said about him here. What I want to say is: lay off the guy! If he was indeed couch-cast in college and ended up going into porn AFTER a decade of success, he likely had/has very complex psychological issues rooted in his upbringing. It would explain why he went "backward" in his career (no pun, please), and it would probably explain why he writes now. All the more reason to CUT THE GUY A BREAK. Be kind. Get a life, people. Peace OUT.
In my experiance the people who feel the need to drag other people down, such as the writer of this blog are the real washed up person.
Well to all those that say '' Evil Ed '' never did GP .. Make your own minds up - http://www.justusboys.com/video/27235/606/Butt-Machine-Boys/Sam-Ritter.html
Judging by how fat he is he's clearly dodged the AIDS bug.
If I where him I would feel shame. Think about it, he stared in some admittedly "B" movies, but now he screws guys for money. That doesn't seem to me to be anything close to being successful. Heck he could have just screwed guys for money in the first place.
Regular movies then but sex with dudes. That makes sense.
Wow! he did regular movies and now he pounds dudes in the rear while people watch for cash. Ha! Ha! Ha! That is disgusting yet hilarious. Yeah my life is totally great compared to this loser.
What the shame is, ... is that some of you are so critical of a man that has had sex on film. It does not matter if it was with the opposite or the same sex. Your words are shockingly ignorant.
You CAN LOVE SOME celebrities for ANYTHING THEY do. But you find an easy target with Mr. Geoffreys and you decide to be malicious. How immature. If you look at your own sins, they're probably worse. His sins just happen to be on film.
The fact is, Stephen is a great actor. (Read about ALL that he has done in his past, including being on Broadway.) He CHOSE to be in B movies. His acting skills have been compared to that of Jack Nicholson. Read his full history and not just view a moment in his life and respond like MEAN GIRLS in high school. Grow up.
Hopefully the mean things you people have said come back to you so you understand what you're doing. He is not stupid. He is not a fool. He is not a loser. He is a man that made decisions in a time and he lives with those decisions. I'm glad he had the courage to do all of it.
For those of you that love him, no matter what, ... as I do, let him know. None of us want anyone to concentrate on decisions THEY FEEL were not the best for our lives. Sometimes people not having a life urges them to insult others as the people have on this page.
Stephen Geoffreys IS NOT a washed up celebrity. He is a man with a life. I am glad that I learned of him because he is really something special. I love his work. Its amazing how you LOOK HIM UP, know of his work, and consciously DECIDE to hate him and post messages like this. My memories of Stephen Geoffrey is from Fright Night. he did an AMAZING JOB!! I had the opportunity to also speak with him and he is such a talent. Such an awesome man.
Wow! I've just learned from the comment above that butt slamming another man in gay porn is acting like Jack Nicholson. Where is this guy's star on the Walk Of Fame? There are gay prostitutes at the bus stop in my town, now I know that these guys are just legendary actors and not drug addicts selling their bodies to get their next fix.
Sorry to say, Stephen Geoffreys is looking pretty rough for age 42. That's the thing with drugs, it ages you in dog years. (I don't honestly know if the guy was into drugs but the odds greatly favor it. Who could do that shit sober?)
Sorry to hear that things haven't gone so great for this guy. He was fantastic in Fright Night. He was supposed to be a supporting actor that nobody cares about and he stole the show.
I gotta say other than the hair and the widening of his face,hes still evil ed. Sexiest movie, 976 evil. Still watch it.
Don't be so HARD-ON the guy.
The homophobia masked as humor and concern trolling in the comments are the worst things about this blog post. Homophobia, sexism and racism are the epitome of anti-social reality and nothing will ever make it ok to witness or experience. We must call them out when we see it.
Feel sorry for him he had a bright future.
I met him back in the early 90s. He was a nice guy but a drug addict at the time. Probably a sex addict too. Very troubled. I hope he is doing better today.
If you haven't seen him in Heaven Help Us, make sure you watch it. That's his best role IMO. Great acting.
I agree. By the way I live inSt. Louis, what school did you and he attend?
I've known Steve for almost 30 years now and he's one of the coolest down to earth friends i have. Sure, he's had it rough and has made bad choices in life, we all do. I was taught NEVER judge anyone unless you've walked in their shoes and even then - keep your mouth shut. We don't know what drives people to do the things they do, but he's never hurt anyone or said anything bad about others. He's always there for his fans, ALWAYS and most of all - his friends when they need him.
Steve is a stand up guy and I'm happy to call him my friend...
Leave Steven alone he is a human being...
He was one of the most memorable, and one of my favorite, characters in Fright Nights. Just a fantastic performance. He's got he "It" factor and I'm sure he could get back into mainstream if he wanted to.
I don't think of him as washed up; I think of him as a great actor who did some great performances/roles and could do more. A great actor is always a great actor.
Just because someone has done an amazing job doesn't mean they're washed up if they don't follow that with more amazing jobs.
He's "Stephen Geoffreys" and all you naysayers aren't!
I met Stephen at a porn convention in the late 90s, and we hooked up in my hotel room for a few minutes. He wasn't hustling like all of the porn stars do. I think that the video company booth I met him at may have been called Cabin Fever and they had out a video that featured legit male actors in nude scenes.Our encounter was so brief and unmemorable that I don't even recall the sex or what we spoke about,and I don't even have a visual recollection of him. I remember I thought he was an average looking guy. I would say he was a cool,nice guy,too. I don't have anything negative to say about Stephen and wish him well in his future.
Nice try, Stephen.
