Apparently anyone with the last name “Darko” becomes a space-time nexus. According to i09, on April 28th Donnie’s sister Samantha will begin experiencing her own visions (so far no mention of any weird cyborg rabbit, but keep your fingers crossed!) of future doom. Full synopsis can be found after the cut.
S. Darko takes place in the summer of 1995, seven years after the original film. It follows Donnie Darko’s younger sister, Samantha (Daveigh Chase), who, in the wake of his death, has found herself at age 17 with a broken family, mired in feelings of insignificance. She and her best friend Corey (Evigan) set off on a road trip to Hollywood in a bid to ‘make it big’, but their journey is cut short when their car breaks down unexpectedly, leaving them stranded in a small desert town. When a meteorite happens to crash-land nearby, Samantha is plagued by bizarre visions telling of the universe’s end and it appears that their breakdown was part of some grander plan. When she finds out she was actually adopted by the Darkos, and that she is in no way related to Donnie, she must face her own demons and, in doing so, save the world and herself.
The full trailer will be shown at the New York Comic Con, but those needing their Darko fix can find the teaser trailer and a still here:
S. Darko will soon be available for pre-order at Amazon.com.
