Step 1: Decide to make a sequel to Donnie Darko, regardless of involvement of any original cast or crew

Step 2: Secure services of actor who played Donnie Darko’s younger sister, Samantha, a tertiary character. Name sequel s.Darko.  Using only sound effects and footage from the first movie, construct trailer for sequel.

Step 3: Profit?

(it’s not so much a sequel, more like an afterbirth)

Today it’s being reported that Elizabeth Berkley will bring her unique acting talents to S. Darko, the sequel to Donnie Darko in which the only returning cast member is Donnie Darko’s younger sister Samantha, who I can’t even remember. I will bet my entire paycheck this goes straight to DVD.

Berkley plays a speed freak-turned-Jesus freak whose sentiments about ridding the world of its exponential sin [as opposed to linear sin, I suppose – Ed.] are rivaled only by her infatuation with her dreamy pastor. [THR]

No word yet on whether she’ll be utilizing the “I’m so excited” style of acting as seen above, or the “flailing retard orgasm” style of acting as seen in this NWS clip (google image search also highly recommended). If you’ve never had a flailing retard orgasm, you’ve pretty much never had sex.
