Cannes | Son of "Darko"

Todd Brown at Twitch speaks out on the news that a sales company is pre-selling "S. Darko," a sequel to Richard Kelly's cult hit "Donnie Darko," and which Kelly has no involvement in:
Darko needs a sequel about as badly as the original Highlander did, which is to say not at all, and I fully expect the results of this to be about the same, which is to say horribly bad.  I’m bothered that they’re doing a sequel at all, that they’re doing it without Kelly boggles the mind as Darko was Kelly’s baby.
