Donnie Darko Gets a Sequel (From People in Stupid Man-Suits)

The unthinkable is happening.

It has been reported that yet another sequel that should NEVER be made is indeed being made anyway, which in itself isn't surprising.

Donnie Darko, the acclaimed cult hit from 2001, is getting a sequel, S. Darko, and...starts filming this week, reportedly.

The report says "Set seven years after the first film, little sister Samantha Darko and her best friend Corey are now eighteen and on a roadtrip to Los Angeles when they are plagued by bizarre visions."

No.

Just....no.

I love Donnie Darko. It's a great movie (by the way, I may review it sometime. It's on my list, basically...) But all you have to do is see the movie and realize NO, there should NOT be a sequel. Just...no. There should never be one. And if you have not seen this movie before, do it. NOW.

I'm also confused about Richard Kelly not being involved in it. Did...he approve of this movie?? Or does he have no say in the matter at all?? I assume if he did, he would not allow this to be made....Auy....

I want to be sucked down a wormhole to where this movie will never exist...
