Donnie Darko Opening Scene Killing Moon 

Came here because I forgot they changed the intro song for the director’s cut. This is the real intro! Also one of my favorite movies.

this summers gonna be like this scene i can feel it now

This movie is a cult masterpiece and I will never let it go. One of Jake’s most magnificent roles.

I watched this movie for the first time 2 months ago. It is easily one of my favorite movies now!!

Getting goosebumps all over again, everytime I'm seeing this, I had the luck for an re-watch in cinema, and this opening-scene with this awesome song to experience on the big screen put me right 20 years back, great movie☺️

i watched this movie for the first time in july while i was visiting my bfs hometown this scene with this song will stay with me

2:59 I'm like 90% positive that is Frank driving the red car that runs over gretchen

This song is perfect for a reserved and sensitive character like Donnie Darko is. I like, I like the music of the post punk period too much like Echo and the Bunnymen, The Cure, Joy Division, The Sisters of Mercy, The Mission UK etc. Truly the darkest, deepest, most romantic music and lyrics make me feel warm inside.

Damn i love this song and clip

the directors cut is better but why this song was changed from this scene is baffling fits better

Ty for 4k upload :)

The kid in trampolining = all my teenage years

I prefer this to the directors cut

I like this intro more, too bad they changed it. :-( good eitherway

Beautiful

I love you Donnie Darko!!!

I always loved the entry scene of the movie.I was always remembering the Killing Moon theme.However I recently saw again the movie to emphasize in details and suddenly the entering song is not the same.Wtf!I red somewhere that the director's cut changed the song because of the band rights or something like that.

Frank drives past at 03.02

*memories* ❤

When I look at Jake till this day , I just see Donnie , so I’m always a fan

Nothing against INXS but "Killing Moon" is such a better music choice for this opening scene than what the director wanted. "Never tear us apart. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CJ7Fz3m485s.html

Directors cut ruined this whole intro which was what reeled most of us into the mood of the film, and the unique part of this song on the original film is that it says "killing times" right as frank drives by. Like an easy music pun, but hey most directors cuts ruin movies anyways!

2:18.

The version I saw has a different song it's sm worse tbh

The directors cut sucked.
