Yeah you should see this film. It is great.

Probably has one of the most vile villains in film from the past 20 years. He gives you the creeps.

Cormac McCarthy must be one of these guys who sells his soul at the crossroads. There is nothing like his prose.

You might check out "Blood Meridian" too - Judge Holden is something else.
 
No Country for Old Men left me with a cold, hollow feeling. I Am Legend actually cheered me up after seeing it.
