The ending was that Donnie wanted to do right by some other dimension, so he makes the ultimate sacrifice of letting the engine drop kill him as intended, so that his girlfriend can live on in the other dimension. Or something like that. He's also responsible for moving the engine to drop in his room or something?

Fuck lol I'm not nearly invested in this movie enough to adequately explain it. I'm not even arguing for this movie btw. I liked it when it was more ambiguous and it was just a standard time lapse or a dream sequence kind of thing. The actual explanation makes the move worse

I thought that was his sister not his girlfriend

Well the grand scheme was that his girlfriend is stabbed in the alternate dimension, so to avoid the possibility of that situation altogether, he let his original dimension self die by being crushed by the engine. Cuz he saw that him being alive will eventually lead to his girlfriend's death in one way or another. I think his family is relatively safe?
