SXSW FILM ANNOUNCES MIDNIGHTERS AND SHORT FILM SELECTIONS FOR 2012 SXSW FILM FESTIVAL

We’re a little over a month away from the 2012 SXSW Film Festival, and the announcements keep coming! This time SXSW has revealed the Midnighters and Short Films selections for the 2012 event, running March 9-17, 2012. From the official press release:

The South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Conference and Festival is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated features in the Midnighters section, as well as the complete short films lineup, which will debut at this year’s Festival from March 9 – 17, 2012 in Austin, Texas.

A key component of the SXSW Film lineup, the long-standing Midnighters section has hosted the premieres and fostered the careers of such filmmakers as Joe Cornish, Ti West, and Eli Roth. The eleven films announced in the 2012 program include a feast of titles that promise to rouse, haunt and thrill the eager SXSW late-night audiences with an eclectic mix of thrills from genre filmmakers at the top of their game.

135 short films were selected from 3,306 short film submissions, and will screen as part of twelve overall shorts programs. This year SXSW moved up submission deadlines a month earlier than previous years, and still saw a saw an increase of 7% in Short film submissions over 2011. A comprehensive list of the short films lineup is detailed below. For more information on Midnighters and the complete SXSW Film Lineup (features and shorts), visit www.sxsw.com/film.

“Though our regular program already includes a healthy sampling of genre fare, the Midnighters section highlights those that go a bit crazier, gorier, and all-around balls out-ier,” said SXSW Senior Programmer & Operations Manager Jarod Neece. “This year’s program includes both veteran names with anticipated follow-ups and fresh discoveries with new voices, and charts otherworldly, insane territories that breathe new life into horror conventions.”

“The shorts selected this year truly maximize the form’s potential. They employ clear directorial vision and draw the audience in with original characters, revealing the constant struggle to define identity,” said Shorts Programmer Claudette Godfrey. “While many of these films exist near the boundary between narrative and documentary, they ultimately cultivate their own terms, which is exactly what SXSW is all about.”

The SXSW Film Festival will open on Friday, March 9, 2012 with the world premiere of Joss Whedon & Drew Goddard’s The Cabin in the Woods. In addition to nine full days of film screenings, SXSW Film will ultimately feature over 100 informative and entertaining panels, workshops, mini-meetings and mentor sessions. The final conference lineup and remaining late addition features will be announced February 15. Visit www.sxsw.com/film for more information and updates.

Joining the previously announced features, the additions to the 2012 SXSW lineup are:
