Described by
the director and lead star as the “dark starwars trilogy” this is the
continuing journey of Riddick(Diesel) the escaped convict who has the
ability to see in the dark who’s now caught in the middle of a
inter-galactic war in the 26th century.
Riddick has
spent the last five years on the move among the forgotten worlds on the
outskirts of the galaxy, eluding mercenaries bent on collecting the
price on his head. Now, the fugitive finds himself on planet Helion,
home to a progressive multicultural society, which has been invaded by
the Lord Marshal (Colm Feore), a zealot who targets humans for
subjugation with his army of warriors known as Necromongers.
Exiled to a subterranean
prison where extremes of temperature range from arctic nights to
volcanic days, Riddick encounters Kyra (Alexa Davalos), the lone
survivor from an earlier chapter in his life. His efforts to free
himself and Kyra lead him to the Necromonger command ship, where he is
pitted against the Lord Marshal in an apocalyptic battle with possibly
the fate of all beings-both living and dead-hanging in the balance.
