The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury (2004)



The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury literally picks up right where Pitch Black left off, with Riddick, Jack and Imam hurtling through space in their craft when they are taken prisoner by a larger vessel. Once on board, Riddick is forced to participate in a futuristic gladiator sport for the amusement of the Ship's Owner. After that, the gang goes through a series of obstacles as they try to escape and make their way back to their own spacecraft. There really isn't much to the story and it doesn't have anything to do with Pitch Black itself other than picking up where they left off. So, none of the monsters that were on the planet are to be found here. Instead, it's this weird giant robot, alien monster thingy.

You'll understand what the monster is and isn't when you see that this is an animated film that only clocks in at 30 minutes. Stylistically this one reminds me of Aeon Flux to some degree. Overall, it looks cool as they blend traditional 2D animation with some CGI animation. Bonus points for at least bringing back Vin Diesel, Keith David and Rhiana Griffith reprise their roles. The story ends where Riddick is taking Jack and Imam to New Mecca. What Riddick doesn't know is that there is a Bounty Hunter in pursuit. Dark Fury as a stand alone film is worth a Rent, Nothing more.
