RIDDICK Red Band Trailer

Although it still doesn’t look very good, a new red band trailer for Riddick has been released, which shows off the film’s more violent side.  It looks like David Twohy is bringing the series back to the gritty, bloody, Pitch Black roots, which seems like a step in the right direction.

This trailer came out of Comic-Con, where star Vin Diesel also hinted at some big news coming up with him and Marvel.  Riddick hits theaters September 6th, hit the jump for the trailer and synopsis.

The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty. The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won’t leave the planet without Riddick’s head as their trophy.
