8 Favorite Film Assassins

1. Anton Chigurh in “No Country for Old Men”

Javier Bardem’s Anton Chigurh from the Coen Brothers' “No Country for Old Men” is not a man to mess around with. A psychopathic hit man, Chigurh kills practically everyone he meets, but worst of all, his weapon of choice is a captive bolt pistol. Accidentally step on his shoes and you’ll probably end up like a dead sheep ready for slaughter. But the eerie calmness Bardem brings to the role is one that makes his assassin simultaneously terrifying and riveting.
