Shownotes

This week, the Mikes are crash landing on a hostile alien planet with Radha Mitchell, Cole Hauser, and escaped murderer Vin Diesel as they discuss the 2000 sci-fi film "Pitch Black".

Butler loved this movie when he was 13 and he still really likes it today, with a few logic and story issues. Field says he doesn't NOT like the film, but it kind of really seems like a hater. Along the way they'll discuss the alien creatures our survivors are trying to escape and the fact that Richard B. Riddick wasn't originally meant to survive or have the redemption arc that he does, but a young Dom Toretto charmed director David Twohy, studio execs, and the cast and crew. A twist of fate that would spawn 2 (and soon 3!) Riddick-centric sequels.

What's your favorite "Aliens" rip off film? Or do you like the other Riddick saga films? Let us know in the comments below!
