The Chronicles of Riddick, Necromonger Infantryman Costume

original movie costume

"There's gonna be one speed- mine. If you can't keep up, don't step up. You'll just die."

A Necromonger infantryman costume made for and used in the production of David Twohy's 2004 action sequel The Chronicles of Riddick.

Riddick (Vin Diesel), hidden for five years after the events of the movie Pitch Black, is forced to come out of hiding to fight the villainous Necromongers, and fulfil a dark prophecy in the process.

The Necromongers wore their costumes throughout the film. It consists of a helmet painted a silver/grey colour with a soft rubber mouth guard and the inside padded for comfort. The shoulder armour is made from hard rubber, as are the breast plate, the back plate, arm armour and cod piece. Underneath the armour is a black lycra body suit which has pieces of rubber leg armour attached to it. The leather boots have rubber armour attached to the shins and toes and the leather gloves also have armour attached to them.
