Following one of London Film School's more memorable shoots (when a water-filled set burst to flood three floors of the school's 18th Century warehouse in Covent Garden), Eric worked again with graduates Adam Mason, Jonty Acton, Erik Wilson, and Robin Todd in varying combinations, exploiting the new digital medium of mini-DV. Since then, he has starred in a handful of psychological thrillers, a couple of schlock horrors, and a swathe of truly exquisite shorts. In production in 2017 are "Maksym Osa" (a Ukrainian historical whodunnit about Cossacks, werewolves and the power struggle between Orthodox, Catholic, Polish and Hapsburg dynasties), in which he plays a sinister German fencing tutor with a penchant for spanking; "Six Days" (in which the SAS storm the Iranian Embassy in eighties London); "Crowhurst" (as a friend of the eponymous inventor, whose solo round-the-world sailing attempt led to desperate lies, febrile solipsism, and eery disappearance); and "Yeast" (Lucid's 'orrible, surreal short about a baker addicted to the stuff, whose dreams of an apprentice are the stuff of nightmares). Most recent is a tiny part, as Einstein's boffinish uncle Jakob, in Ron Howard's TV biopic "Genius" (2017, NatGeo, Imagination & Fox21), and an even tinier exchange with Joaquin Pheonix in Jacques Audiard's "The Sister's Brothers" (2018). Often touring theatres in a range of disturbed characters from Oswald ("Ghosts") to Banquo ("Macbeth") to Jack ("The Weir") and Father Jack ("Dancing at Lughnasa"), in 2015 he created the icy role of SS Obersturmbannführer, Rudolf Höss, commandant of Auschwitz, for Brother Wolf - and in October 2016, was the apparition of Virgil, guiding Dante through his "Inferno" for VoxVanguard's classical musical masque. He fell in love whilst recuperating in 1998, and now lives in a labourer's cottage in North Essex with his very patient wife, Janee, four goats, twelve chickens, and several thousand bees. - IMDb Mini Biography By: Anonymous
