Donnie Darko 2, aka S. Darko


"Donnie Darko" is undeniably a complex film that some will get and others will not. no matter what though, any audience will find themselves drawn to the strange tale of a boy through his passage of different dimensions.

A sequel has been in the works for some time, but the film shall not bear the fruits of any theatrical release. Instead it will be going straight to DVD.
The film is more about Donni's younger sister, Samantha Darko, which leads to the title of the sequel.
"S. Darko."

"Samantha Darko (Daveigh Chase) and her rebellious best friend Corey Richardson (Briana Evigan) leave on a cross-country road trip to Los Angeles in an attempt to ‘make it big’. Their dreams are cut short when their water pump blows outside of a tiny Utah town. Unable to leave until their car is fixed, Sam and Corey are stranded with the locals until their car’s fixed. Sam and Corey are less than thrilled at the delay, and when an unexplained meteorite crash-lands in town that night, it soon becomes clear that there is much more at play than just a chance breakdown. Plagued by bizarre hallucinatory dreams warning her of the universe’s imminent end, as well as grief over her own loss of family, Sam must face the demons she had fled back at home. Aided by the unlikely town locals, Sam learns the true meaning of family and friendship, and in doing so, saves only herself."
