Richard B. Riddick, a savage killer with see-in-the-dark eyes and ice water running through his veins, wants out of the futuristic penitentiary known as Butcher Bay -- the setting of "The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay," a new offering for the Xbox from Vivendi Universal.

You probably won't see the movie in Japan until sometime next year, but one of the hot movies in America this summer is "The Chronicles of Riddick," a futuristic movie in which Riddick (played by action actor Vin Diesel) takes on an entire army of galaxy-crushing aliens.

"Butcher Bay," a prequel to movie, is closely tied in.
