From what I understand, Frank was from the future *(spoiler warning)*, but the part where they are in the movie, and the bunny takes his mask off, he has one injured red eye, and other than that, he is a regular guy. Well this guy in the bunny costume is Frank, and Donnie kills Frank near the end. I don't understand though why it was Frank who was the one to help Donnie escape his bedroom in the begining.
I think Donnie was some sort of superhero such as when the rabbit showed him the house he was to burn down, and the police found a kiddie porn ring due to the fire. Donnie was able to get through locked doors etc. even though it never shows it. They also never show how he actually gets in the house.
I also had some trouble understanding the part of the plane that fell in his bedroom, but I have been doing some reading on the net about it, and a lot of people seem to think that there are two different worlds, and that Donnie was chosen to save the world by at the end, causing the engine to fall from the plane back into his house, but this time, he was in bed, and it killed him. I do remember him saying something when he woke up about it being a dream, then the engine fell on him. I don't know if he had to die or not because when he woke up, he was laughing saying it was a dream. I think he could have just gotten up out of bed, and let the engine crash and everything would have been okay. From what I have been reading, that was what he was supposed to do in the end because if he didn't then the part where he was on the mountain and this huge dark cloud was forming, that would have been the end of the world.
Who really knows though? There are so many explanations on the web that it would take days to go through. Anywas, I'm sure I probably confused more people than not because the movie is so confusing. Reminds me of the movie Memento. That is another good confusing movie. Movies like these make you think about them when it's over.
