Well, that’s a wrap, y’all. From The Evil Dead to The East, the 2013 SXSW festival gave us a mix of movies as cool and eclectic as the city of Austin. While there aren’t enough hours in the day to see all the movies that the fest has to offer (damn you, daylight savings!) we gladly woke up and shot out of bed faster than you can say “breakfast burrito” to catch as many as possible. Even though there were some premieres that downright disappointed (you’re not incredible even a little bit, Burt Wonderstone), there were others that downright wowed us (we’ll remember Short Term 12 for a long while).
