Ten Movie Tough Guys And The Dogs They Love
Because even the most hardened of killers needs a best friend.
Richard B Riddick (Vin Diesel) in Riddick (2013)
The surprisingly not-that-bad third Chronicle of Riddick opens with our outlaw hero left for dead on a desolate planet. He captures an alien jackal pup in order to test the venom of the resident aquatic Mud Demons, but of course the pup bonds with him and he ends up raising and training it. Bounty hunters shoot the jackal while trying to capture Riddick. Big mistake. Cinemagoers know that bloody vengeance awaits anyone who messes with a tough guy’s dog.
