Pitch for the Black Action SciFi Thriller!

Rating: 10/10 (19 February 2000)

The not so dark (skinned)Afro-Euro anti-Hero Diesel carries the fuel cells and most of the movie in the first (and we know not the last!) "Aliens" genre off-spring of the century!The plot and most of the characters are the stuff of killer creatures cliche, but the stylish cinematography,and German expressionistic camera angles and film noir lighting, make this film something new and interesting.The male lead character Riddick is a sexy psycho night visionary who challenges, God and Monsters alike!We dont know until the very climax of the film if he will survive or sacrifice his life for those who held him captive.There is even a gender bender (Boys Do Cry if they're scared enough!)surprise bonus to compliment the "Ripley" "Get Away from her you b*tch" heroine.See this film and enjoy the dark. I hope it stays in the light!
