Just like Chigurh. And people will be just as mad about it.

There's this pattern in so many Coen films of "evil" as a constant, ephemeral presence, with ordinary people getting caught up in it, dealing with it as best they can, maybe getting killed from it, and then at the end the story winds itself out but the root of it all is still there. That's very much the feeling I had coming out of the Fargo movie, even though all of the "bad guys" were killed or captured.

They seem to be painting Malvo as a supernatural personification of all this. After all we've seen of him, I can't see Malvo getting squeezed into a wood chipper or getting lectured in the back of a police car.
