Style File: Vena Cava’s Heartland Horror

Style File

Vena Cava's Heartland Horror Sep 12th 2012, 18:13 Vena Cava’s Sophia Buhai and Lisa Mayock were inspired by 1970s neo noir films for their Fall collection, so it was only fitting that they create one of their own. They joined forces with Josh and Benny Safdie of Red Bucket Films (”they are some of the last people making New York cinema the way it was done in the seventies”) and enlisted a gaggle of their girlfriends (including Langley Hemingway and Eléonore Hendricks) to play the cult girls in their horror flick, entitled Heartland. “The film references a lot of cults from seventies L.A., a darker time in history,” they tell Style.com. “We intentionally did not want product shots or a ‘fashion film’ thing going on. We set out to make a movie that could stand on its own outside of the fashion audience.” Here, we debut the movie trailer exclusively on Style.com, and your average fashion it is not. “We did some pretty intense gore scenes in my mother’s kitchen—at one point, the whole floor was covered in fake blood we had purchased at gore shops in the San Fernando Valley,” they add. “Horror is much messier art than fashion!” —Kristin Studeman
