Trailer Hitch, 3/12

Eyeballing the day's highlights

Everybody jump, jump.

Early buzz on 21 Jump Street 2.0 has been enthusiastic. Red band trailer below, ‘cause it’s never too early in the morning for dick jokes. (Screens Monday, 7:30pm, Paramount)

Genre fans have been champing at the bit to get at the latest from Don Coscarelli (Bubba Ho-Tep, Phantasm), and the wait ends now with – um, spoiler alert? – John Dies at the End. (Screens Monday, midnight, Alamo Ritz)

Guns. Drugs. Carnage. Let’s left-click that bad-mojo knob with the soothing effects of … football? Actually, Jonny Mars’ America’s Parking Lot is about football fandom, specifically that of Dallas Cowboys obsessives on the eve of the demolition of their historic Texas Stadium. (Screens Monday, 5pm, SXSatellite: Alamo Slaughter)
