Current Events > Did you know they made a god-awful sequel to Donnie Darko?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Wow its rough. It follows Donnies sister years later, but it completely misses the tone, mystery, and atmosphere that made the original work. Feels more like a fan film than a real continuation. Cant believe this actually got made.

This and American Psycho 2, I just avoided at all cost. Never watched the trailers. They don't exist in my mind.

I remember enjoying American Psycho. Then I distinctly remember when I saw the second one existed, I was confused by the cover art and watched some of the trailer. That was enough of that...

I just watched Lost Boys for the first time and then I found out they made a sequel like twenty years later and it got awful reviews.

Yep, I owned it.

I heard that original director didn't want to do a sequel

I remember watching it. Wasn't it about his younger sister when she's older? Of course Maggie Gyllenhal would not have been in it.

Yes

Oh crap I remember this. Wait 2009? I don't remember this, I could have sworn this was some recent shit, at least like 2016 or something. That movie is older than the time frame between it and the original. Also thought it would be called Donnie Darker lol

It didn't even have maggie gylenhal! Whatever

But american psycho 2, has mila kunis, so I've always wanted to see it. I just don't want to watch it, if that makes any sense?
