Plot
Donnie Darko is an average highschool boy with too many problems at home and too many prescription anti-depressant drugs in his body. He is visited by an imaginary friend Frank: a man dressed in a bunny suit with a demonic mask for a face. Frank's influence on Donnie first results in Donnie waking up in his pajamas in the middle of a road, then in Donnie flooding the school at night, then with Donnie committing arson. Frank justifies his influence by telling Donnie that he is in danger, and, while he does wind up exposing a TV personality (Patrick Swayze) for who he really is, most of the crimes seem to be meaningless until the end, when all the threads come together to make Donnie understand that his life is determined by his actions, and the end is inescapable.
