- Vin Diesel’s role as convict Riddick in the 2000 film ‘Pitch Black’ is known to be one of his personal favourite roles. The budget of the film might not have been huge, but the sheer intensity of the plot with all of its twists and turns caught the audience’s eye. Speaking of the plot, Riddick had survived a spaceship crash on an alien planet alongside a few others, and the planet was home to monsters sensitive to light. Riddick was not only stronger but also capable of seeing in the dark because of his “eye shine” characteristic, thus he became the survivors’ messiah for their time on the said planet. A David Twohy creation, the Necromongers, and their Empire were a critical part of the whole universe in the Riddick storyline.
The empire itself was quite religious and had its own religion, Necroism, that they followed quite fervently but with a “touch of violence” involved when it came to practicing and preaching it. Fanaticism would perhaps be the right word since their beliefs about life were simply at the polar opposite end of the natural state that the universe is settled in. Any opposition to the idea meant death by their hands.

I love the necromongers. They are just so evil but in the same time so stylish.
They are disgusting, as stylish as any apocalyptic cult.
They aren't evil at all. They are going to end life which will end suffering. They are the good guys.
They aren’t evil in the sense that they do things for the sake of being evil. They do those things because they believe that it’s an integral part of their faith and sacred duty as the Chosen of the Underverse. It doesn’t excuse what they do, but it does add depth to them. To them, they are the Good Guys. To us, they’re the spawn of Satan +10
I love that Covu’s last act was to walk away into the Underverse, at peace with what he had built and confidant that his successor would continue his legacy. Leaders that are willing to let go of their power are rare, and those that do so not out of fear or hatred are rarer still. I expect that he saw something beyond the Threshold: the figure of a woman, with two young children at her side, beckoning him to join them in peace and eternal joy. I might even dare to wager that he smiled for the first time in years when he saw it.
George Washington did this, because of his great hero Cincinnatus, the retired Roman general who became imperative during a time of war, and when the war had ended and he was victorious, he rode back to Rome and immediately relinquished his title back to the Senate. Then retired on his farm.
@@grandparedpill2695exactly true men seek power to use it to build and make great things and then let those things flourish. You stifle them if you try to control every aspect of them or overbear on them. It limits the potential of what you create.
@@azazelsiad3601Precisely. Of course it helps that Covu never really wanted power to begin with; he was just a preacher who thought things were different to the established dogma, and he was punished for it. He only partook of the gifts of the Underverse after he was left with nothing, not even hope.
When he came back, he realized that there was a greater purpose for him, that it was his most _sacred_ duty to seek out his torturers and show the true path to them. I like him because he’s the exact opposite of an evil overlord; certainly he did terrible things in the name of faith, but in the end he knew that his time was done. The Necromongers didn’t need an eternal leader, they needed a legend, to guide them on their quest. And so that’s exactly what he became.
I really liked the concept of the Necromongers. What made their fanaticism so dangerous was because it was tied to a real truth: their religion is true. They have physical evidence and proof of an afterlife through the Threshold, and the prospect of being able to even return from said afterlife. No other religion in that universe can make such a claim. The irony of the Necromongers conquering New Mecca and converting Muslims is beautiful.
Yeah!
In contrast, you have the "gods" from star gate, who's religion is not true, but it's just technology.
I like the way this guy thinks. Legit if I was a spectator and saw a dude get his soul ripped from his body in front of me, I'd join immediately because they obviously have the right idea on who to follow. Mayhaps if your will is strong enough you too could access the underverse and it's power.
i was thinking the exact thing, necromonger aggressive religious expansion mirrors how Islam spread through jehad and in book dogma that saw others as less(to be fair other religious and cultural populations do something similar), hence why in the movie they have disdain for anybody else and call them breeders.
@@rogeliovaldez9689 all the Abrahamic religions are the same. Catholics and Christians are super vicious too.
@@limitlesssky3050 your absolutely right but I don't think you fully read out what i was saying. i was speaking towards certain religious tenants or messages, not individuals. in the quran it is justifiable to make war or jehad on those who do not practice islam ( hence some extremist sects) and it is how islam initially spread in the middle east and north africa ect.. different from how other Abrahamic faiths did initially. this is ironic as olepigeon points because the necromongers tenant is that life should not exist and not procreate as a result the only way to spread the faith would be through conversion/violence otherwise they won't reach their goals. in both cases war on the non-believers was justifiable in both a practical and spiritual sense. this is why Islam won and why very few if any Christians, Jews, and native Copts of Egypt and Zoroastrians of Iran exist as the Roman and Persian empire became overwhelmed by the Arabs. the history is very interesting i suggest u look it up
The cast is stellar, full of premium performances, but for me Colm Feore and Linus Roache are perfect.
Sad we live in a world where we have 9 Fast and Furious movies but have to pull teeth to get frequent installations of an amazing imaginative space epic like the Riddick franchise...
Most people are so dumb and lazy.
And another one on the way if you can believe it 😪
No let ppl enjoy things
Honestly, I like it better that way. Do you want Riddick to become a washed out meme? Or remain a cult classic? The last Riddick was a treat and if they do another it will be a treat too. But pumping them out like F&F would ruin it. Each film would have less and less creative passion for the character. If you want more Riddick in your life I recommend trying the video games. Both were solid games and what's better than watching Riddick than becoming Riddick?
There really needs to be a TV show or more movies with them...
Good fuckin idea.
Yes i would love to see them conquer different worlds. Maby even fighting alien races.
A TV show would most likely water them down too much.
A tv show would be cool.
ITS look like "washed" fersion of warhamer 40 k
I'm really excited to Riddick 4, and to know more about Furyans and their home planet.
There's a theory online that the Riddick Films, Event Horizon, and Judge Dredd take place in the same Universe and are set in the past of Warhammer 40k.
*THAT IS AWESOME*
Yeah i realy like that.
Thanks for this origin story.
This is deep and thank you for the history of the Necromongers.
There are some similarities between the Necromongers and the Roman empire - especially in terms of elaborate architecture, sculpture, armour, technological advancement, leadership and religion. And even size, scale and grandeur.
First time I saw Chronicles, I thought the Necromongers were a bit like the Romans but in space.
Really cool concept.
Those were really great movies. Love em!
Can't wait to see....FURYA.
Epic video thank you!
The Necros are humans not human like lol.
This sounds so much like a Stargate antagonist. I do not know why it took me this long to realize this.
I find the word "cult" an interesting descriptive choice here.
A half-dead man literally took a soul before their very eyes. But their faiths are not a cult?
If anything, the necromonger faith, at least in this universe, proved itself to be true.
It would be a helluva thing to see DARTH VADER GO HEAD UP WITH THE LORD MARSHALL.
Excellent
Keep em coming👍
Where does all this information come from
Nice
The Chronicles of Riddick: Furyra
or
Last Son of Furya
would be better titles tbh
I prefer Fast and the Furya
@@toy5965 😂😂😂
Riddick 4 furya is coming august 2026
i missed the part of the movie all this info was in
Yes i also wondered if they all seen a totally different version than i did.
This info was provided in the DVD release in the bonus features. Also in the novelization of Chronicles of Riddick.
The Necrmongers vs The Borg ?🌹🌚👍Rest in the good news ⚘ okay bye
We're do you got all that information I cannot find much online
There's an official Riddick fan wiki, which lists the history of the Necromongers based on the novelization and it's much better than this video.
Some cool lad: "just bow and say some words and you're one of us"
Some edgy emo: "you have to, like, spend a year on a sadistic sex wing and feed on the pains of the flesh to be one of us"
There’s more to it then just bowing and saying some words, but yeah that about sums it up.
where one can find the clip of riddick in the marshal armor?
❤️❤️❤️❤️
necroism has to be the stupidest yet coolest looking villain tribes in science fiction
What happened after ridick kept what he killed?
He didn't have the same vision as the lord Marshall about finding the underverse which made the other Necros very restless. Vakko plotted tried to kill him on a deserted planet and take the throne. Riddick fell over a cliff so Vakko left him for dead but he actually survived
He ended the Eternal Crusade and just turned the whole fleet towards the Threshold to get them out of our universe.
Man you sound like you directed this film
I read this on wiki
U keep what u steal🙂
I Wonder what they ATE?
pale no they werent; robes decaying no
In my opinion the Chronicles of Riddick is much better than all the other movies.... this is my favorite one. Pitch black was my least favorite
Love this movie….epic fail not following it up at the time…..sadly you needed to engage brain to enjoy it…..not what studio’s these days want to make….mostly
Humanity literally only applies to humans 😂
all the rich back story is all for nothing when you have Vin Dizel in your movie
He is an acting legend
You keep what you kill🌹🌚👍rest in the good news ⚘ okay bye
I dont think vin desiel is in gaurdins of the galaxy...
He's the voice of Groot.
@@scottkelly1685 oh yes so true 😁 thank you
I am Groot
its interesting how so many shows about vast armies are basically a tribute to the mongol horde. STar treak wrath of khan, game of thrones the horse nomads, necro MONGER....
