SXSW Unveils Midnight Movies, Music Videos and Shorts Slate

South by Southwest will premiere eight movies and a screen a couple of other films from horror veterans in its midnights movie section, the film festival said Wednesday.

South by Southwest announced the bulk of its movie lineup last week, but it has unveiled midnight movies, short films (narrative, documentary and animated), as well as music videos.
