What happens when a seasoned soap‑star becomes a vampire and teams up with her real‑life daughter—a serial killer in training? The result is Brand New Cadillac, a bold and bloody horror short co‑directed and fronted by Days of Our Lives icon Stacy Haiduk and her daughter, Sophia Tatum. Not only are they bringing sheer cinematic mayhem, they’re also staging a real family reunion—in front of the camera and behind it.
And now they’re revving to take it feature-length.
Stacy Haiduk—beloved by fans for her dual roles as Kristen DiMera and Susan Banks—has long mastered high‑stakes drama. Her daughter Sophia, now 27, quietly stepped into the spotlight herself, making a splash in Salem back in 2020.
When the two decided to create Brand New Cadillac, they weren’t just making a horror film; they were stepping into a creative battlefield that would test—and deepen—their real-life bond.
At its core, the story is as chilling as it is intimate: Lana, a vampire who can walk in daylight but craves blood, and Strode, her daughter, a budding serial killer.
