   Welcome, Cultists to our final Spooky Season Bonus Episode. We're going back to Haddonfield one last time for the conclusion of David Gordon Green's Halloween Trilogy, Halloween Ends.

   76. Donnie Darko (Kelly, 2001) The Last Temptation of Donnie

   Cultists, this year marks the 25th anniversary of Richard Kelly's Cult Classic, Donnie Darko. The stylish film combined psychological horror with time travel shenanigans and set it all to an '80s synth soundtrack. It wasn't successful on its initial release but found its audience on home video.
