Director Chris Fisher wants to set the record straight on a few issues surrounding his latest project, S. Darko, which had the internet buzzing with malice ever since the word got out that there was going to a be companion film to Richard Kelly’s cult classic Donnie Darko.

With all the news that keeps pouring in today, I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. If you own a Blu-ray player, this is a very good week for you. But even if you don't, there are plenty of releases that should make your wallet feel the pinch.

Excited about tomorrows DVD / Blu-ray release of S. Darko? You should be. If all goes well this could turn out to be a pretty cool sequel. Considering the mystique and fanfare surrounding the original film that is a pretty big if, but hey, I'm willing to take the chance if only for Frank The Bunny's sake!

The third and final piece of the viral video promotional puzzle for S. Darko showed up online recently, and of course we've got you covered!

In case you were wondering what this video was all about -- mystery solved! It's from the upcoming sequel S. Darko which hits DVD on May 12th. In retrospect the video was pretty cool. Want another? Dig the latest slice of strangeness and order yourself a copy below!

Here are Dread Central we get lots of crazy stuff in our in-boxes. Every day is like Christmas only instead of getting gifts we are propositioned for sex, offered riches from a Nigerian king, and told about upcoming horror movies. Sometimes we even get the occasional strange video for us to share with you guys.

Whether you like it or not, the sequel to the cult hit Donnie Darko is right around the corner, and we got the skinny on what you can expect when S. Darko hits DVD and Blu-ray on May 12th.

The full trailer for S. Darko: A Donnie Darko Tale (as it’s now being called) showed up this weekend over at the film’s official site, but you can just check it out below if you like. This time there’s actual footage from the film, unlike in the "teaser trailer" we showed you a few days ago!

All right, I will admit it’s a pretty cheap-ass teaser for S. Darko, the unwanted sequel to Donnie Darko that’s currently in the works, but admit it; you’re fascinated and want to see it anyway.

For all of you who moaned and groaned when the Donnie Darko sequel, S. Darko, was first announced, now you have a good reason to stop. The film's gotten a major class upgrade by adding none other than Elizabeth (Showgirls, "Saved by the Bell") Berkley to the cast!

Though it’s hard to put Donnie Darko in the “horror” category, I think it’s bizarre enough to have a place in most of your hearts anyway. And when there’s a place in your heart for an original that means you don’t need to make much room to question a pointless sequel.
