can someone kindly explain the ending (last 20 minutes) of Donnie Darko?

i own the movie, and somehow managed to doze off for a few minutes and woke up right as Donnie kills Frank the bunny (i thought he was apart of his imagination), lets just say, i was lost from there, but i really enjoyed the movie, and plan on getting the new DC. ?, does the DC leave things "less open ended" then the theatrical cut.

He went back in time, got killed so none of the bad ever happened. He should have died that night but didn't and it created a time ripple were everything going wrong was ment to push donnie back to die when he should have.
