Sonic Darko - Wake Up Barracuda: A Conspiracy of Bullshit (mp3)



I picked up the director's cut of Donnie Darko earlier this week, and as I said in an earlier post, I loved it. It loses the mystery, but gives Donnie his due as a hero. And though some of the questions are fed to the audience, more questions arise as a result. Is Frank also a hero, having known his demise at Donnie's hand, by giving Donnie a chance to save his girlfriend, or is he a selfish drunk trying to save himself? Does everyone in the end know somehow that Donnie saved them?

Here's a song featuring a clip that's in the director's cut, but was deleted from the original. The music is from Sonic Youth's Deluxe Edition of Dirty.

Turn it up. It's supposed to hurt.
