Acting as a bridgepoint between "Pitch Black (2000)" and "The Chronicles of Riddick (2004)", this short film explains why Riddick decides to go into hiding and deliver Jack and Imam Abu al-Walid to New Mecca.

This story opens with the new action hero and the two other survivors of Pitch Black already caught by a giant spaceship filled with dread. The sinewy leader has a unique--and creepy--jail for master villains and she has her sights set on Riddick. And Jack as they cross paths with a ship of body hunters and are brought on board. The captain of the ship, Chillingsworth has an interesting hobby - she captures wanted criminals and makes living statues of them.—Anthony Pereyra {[email protected]}
