Sam Raimi and Jonathan Demme plan SXSW screenings

You may remember our coverage about the screening of Sam Raimi's Drag Me To Hell in L.A. The movie is his return to directing horror movies. At that time the film was still incomplete, and apparently Raimi will offer another sneak peak of the project in its still-unfinished form at this year's SXSW. Also on the incomplete front, a screening of Jonathan Demme's not-quite-complete documentary about Neil Young will go down as well.

The screening of Drag Me to Hell will happen at midnight on March 15 at the Paramount Theatre. Raimi will be in attendance. Demme's performance film, The Neil Young Trunk Show, is said to involve the titular character, standing center stage, surrounded by his guitars. He's occasionally joined by Ben Keith, Rick Rosas, Ralph Molina, his wife Pegi Young and Anthony Crawford. A screening of the partially completed documentary will air March 21.
