Biography
Eros D'Antona is an Italian-born director, writer, and editor, known for his work in the independent film scene, particularly within the horror and thriller genres. Throughout his nearly 16-year career, Eros has directed, written, and edited seven feature films that have been distributed worldwide across various platforms. His notable works include Haunted (2017), Die in One Day (2017), and The Solemn Vow (2022), the latter of which has garnered close to 10 million views on AVOD platforms.
Eros began his career in 2008, working as an assistant director and editor, with a strong foundation in music videos for both domestic and international artists. He gained experience across a wide range of productions, including docufilms, reportage, and commercials. He also served as the director of photography and editor for the documentary L'Ambiente audio/cinetico di Antonio De Franchis, which was presented at the Biennale di Venezia in 2011 and is now part of the collection at the Museum of Contemporary Italian Art in Exile.
In 2012, Eros directed his first short film, Mind Trip (2012), which opened doors for him in Milan's television and advertising industry. In 2014 Eros produced and directed the award-winning feature film Insane (2015), his first one, and his career expanded internationally in 2015 when he directed his first English-language feature, Haunted (2017).
Eros' films have achieved recognition worldwide, with Haunted (2017) and Die in One Day (2017) receiving also theatrical releases. His most recent project, Bloody Trip: The Equinox Killer (2024), attracted over 700,000 views within the first 10 days of its release, despite minimal marketing.
Alongside his wife, Kateryna Korchynska, he founded a production company dedicated to producing micro and low-budget feature films. Together, they have already produced several projects.
Since relocating to Toronto, Canada, in 2023, Eros continues to push the boundaries of independent filmmaking.
