I didn't necessarily think he was Satan, I just thought he was evil incarnate...which could easily be interpreted as Satan I guess, but in the traditional, biblical depiction of Lucifer, he has a personality, he's more of a deceiver....Chigurgh was just a pure manifested force of darkness and evil that will never stop.
...Now Lorne Malvo, (Fargo Season 1) I thought was Satan. The tricks and evil things he did just to stir shite up for fun was how you'd think of the fallen angel himself. Especially with all the cryptic, human evolution type stuff Malvo said...it fits the "trickster" persona and ancient depiction of the devil perfectly.
I always liked a lot how the Coens depicted nihilism and just pure, evil in their movies (the series did a great job too). It's so that the human mind cant really grasp something so bad, it's unexplainable and almost mystic, which fits No Country For Old Men Perfectly. That's why the ending is like it is.
P.S. - The opening minute with the T.L. Jones voice over is possibly the best opening in any movie, ever.
