The Creature from the Black Casket (2007)
Written and Directed by David Twohy
Says Twohy, “This is a short I did in service of the last Writers’ Strike. It’s kinda inside baseball, but you can still enjoy it if you have this one little tip: The lead negotiator for the producers went by the name ‘Nicholas Counter III.’ It’s pretty easy to hit it out of the park when they lob a softie right across your plate like that. There was some kind of competition for best video during the strike. This won. A fun little piece that gave me a chance to flex my comedy muscles.”

Directed by David Twohy
Written by Jim Wheat, Ken Wheat and David Twohy.
With Vin Diesel, Rahda Mitchell, Cole Hauser.
A spaceship carrying mostly free-settlers is raked by the tail of a comet and crash lands on a nearby planet. All but 12 are killed.

Not only must Fry find food and water for her charges, but she is forced to deal with another complication — escaped killer Richard B. Riddick (Vin Diesel). And when night finally comes to this world, the dwindling survivors realize that, as dangerous as he is, Riddick may not be the worst of their problems.
