This week's Humpday Highlights presents Directing the Dead: Genre Directors Spill Their Guts: a meeting of some of the most sick and twisted minds making some of the most outrageous, frightening, and innovative horror movies out there.

With complimentary massages, comfortable furnishings and internet access, the SXSW Filmmakers Lounge is a center of activity for the over 800 Filmmakers that descend upon Austin each March. By sponsoring the Filmmakers Lounge, you can directly target this influential audience with the exclusive branding opportunity and gifting options.

Austinites, check out the return of Paul Gordon's The Happy Poet, this Monday at the Alamo Downtown.

The film was a word premiere at SXSW 2010, and it returns to Austin as part of the SXSW Presents program at the Alamo Drafthouse, who describe it as "an Austin film that perfectly captures the particular blend of earthy-crunchy and small business that makes this fine city so special.

Bill, an out-of-work poet, puts his heart, soul, and last few dollars into starting an all-organic mostly-vegetarian food stand, but complications with the business jeopardize his dreams for a hot dog-free future."
