10 Dumb Movie Sequels That Had Nothing To Do With The Originals

7. S. Darko (2009)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlEBB7BK41Q It's A Sequel To...Donnie Darko (2001) The probability that somebody left the theatre after watching Donnie Darko and said, "Man, I can't wait for the sequel" is extremely low. I'd go as far as to say that I bet nobody has still ever said that, because it would likely be the most redundant statement ever uttered by a human being, and nobody wants to be responsible for that, do they? Fact is, S. Darko exists, and bears almost no resemblance to the brilliant movie it followed. The sequel is based around the character of Donnie's kid sister, Samantha, played by Daveigh Chase, who - as a child - was probably the only one dumb enough to sign on to reprise her role: "Oh, where's Jake? Jake's still coming, isn't he?" Sorry Daveigh: you're going to have to take the hits for this one. The plot is nonsense and serves only to have you doubting that Donnie Darko was any good in the first place. But it was. It was really good. And don't you forget it.
