Darker than Batman Returns? I don't think so, you're overestimating TDK or underestimating Returns. Returns dealt with a villain wose plans involved murdering sleeping children, there was quite a lot of grotesque imagery and ideas behind it. Joker's plans where pretty standard comparitvely. Don't start with the themes either, the political stuff is in every movie these days and the psychological stuff is handely with utmost subtelty and never overbearing the film.
Batman Returns was much campier then TDK. It had homicidal penguins with explosives strapped to their backs!
