Donnie Darko (25th Anniversary)

Richard Kelly
RELEASE Thu 19 Nov

Donnie Darko is one of those rare cult films that a generation didn’t merely watch, but in which they recognized themselves. By portraying the 1980s not with nostalgia but with a sense of unease—a world of pristine suburbs, conservative morals, stifling school discipline, and adults pretending everything is under control—Richard Kelly’s debut became a defining film of the early 2000s. 

After Donnie inexplicably escapes death when an airplane engine crashes into his bedroom, he becomes increasingly entangled in mysterious visions and the hypocrisy of the adult world around him. Part coming-of-age drama, part nightmare, and part apocalyptic satire, Donnie Darko remains, even twenty-five years later, a defining classic about growing up at a time when the world itself seems to be spinning out of control. 4K restoration of the theatrical cut.
