When I sat down to watch the Coen Brothers' "No Country For Old Men", I expected to see an exciting crime tale like "Fargo" or "Blood Simple". I did not expect to be scared almost to death by one of the most chilling characters in film since Hannibal Lecter. The hit-man, Anton Chigurh, played by Javier Bardem is a cold, calculating killer that operates by his own set of morals. He is the ruin of anyone who crosses his path. It doesn't matter if you're a criminal like himself, or innocent bystanders, all are potential victims of Anton Chigurh. I know it doesn't have the reputation as being one, but "No Country For Old Men" is a horror film by my book, and Chigurh is a true, modern monster.
