Riddick:#4 on 13 Baddassest Movie Convicts

13 of science fiction’s baddest convicts

RICHARD P. RIDDICK
IMPRISONED FOR: Kidnapping and murder
Vin Diesel in Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick
Strong like bull, crazy like fox, Riddick was so much more effective as a screen presence when we didn’t know much about him — other than that he was the only passenger on the Hunter-Gratzner transport shuttle in chains. And then they made that other movie, which offered us way too much of a good thing.

The others:

  1. SNAKE PLISSKEN [Kurt Russell in Escape from New York]
  2. SIMON PHOENIX [Wesley Snipes in Demolition Man]
  3. JACK [Voiced by Courtenay Taylor in Mass Effect 2]
  4. RICHARD P. RIDDICK [Vin Diesel in Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick]
  5. JAMES COLE [Bruce Willis in 12 Monkeys]
  6. SID 6.7 [Russell Crowe in Virtuosity]
  7. KHAN NOONIEN SINGH [Ricardo Montalban in Star Trek's "Space Seed," Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan]
  8. DESOLATION WILLIAMS [Ice Cube in John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars]
  9. BEN RICHARDS [Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Running Man]
  10. LEIA ORGANA [Carrie Fisher in Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope]
  11. ZOD, URSA, AND NON [Terrence Stamp, Sarah Douglas, Jack O'Halloran in Superman II]
  12. THOMAS ZAREK [Richard Hatch on Battlestar Galactica]
  13. NUMBER 6 (The Prisoner) [Patrick McGoohan in The Prisoner]
