I've had my eye on No One Lives for a while and in that time I had forged good expectations for the film. What more could an avid horror fan want when such a solid cast gets paired up with one of the most interesting horror directors in the biz in Ryûhei Kitamura, known widely for his direction of the 2000 film "Versus" & more recently for his 2008 "The Midnight Meat Train". So it seemed the film's success would likely all come down to the quality of the script put forth by first time writer David Cohen.

This is definitely one of those films that is extremely hard to review without spoiling things, so I will stick to relaying the most basic plot line as possible. After botching their last job, a crew of merciless, degenerate criminals encounter a man(Luke Evans) & his girlfriend while eating at a restaurant. This spirals into a further violent meeting between the two which get's more interesting as we come to learn just where the real danger lies. The clash turns bloody as the balance of power shifts & the gore begins to rain down.

Of course it helps to keep in mind that this is in fact a horror film and that you're not going to witness any award winning performances, but there are some really solid efforts given by Evans as the "Driver" & Adelaide Clemens who plays Emma, a kidnap victim who has been hardened by long lengths of mental & physical torture. There are a couple of scenes that are sure to please the sickest of fans while at the same time may seem a bit on the gory side to the average viewer, but overall I felt this was a very enjoyable, entertaining vision delivered by Kitamura. He lays down a few subtle nuances early in the film that become clear to the audience later if you pay close attention, the best being revealed near the end of the film.

As for the downside of the film, there were some real snags in the script that I felt could have been changed and yes there are a few holes in the plot, most of which were used primarily as a vehicle to exploit certain plot developments. Or in one case to present one heck of a bloody surprise, you'll know what I mean after you see it;] Despite those problems, the film still managed to rise above the average effort, but I believe that it was those weak script points that hurt the film in theaters & the reason it may draw further criticism in the future.

So in the end,if you're trying to decide if this will be a good pick for your horror/gore itch then I can definitely recommend this as a top choice, but if you're looking for a smart thriller with a well developed story then this may not be your best choice, but I wouldn't let it stop you from grabbing it from your local DVD kiosk.

"This little piggy went to market,This little piggy stayed home"....just Another hack 'n' slash Movie? No, not quite.

Plot: man and woman are relocating to a knew home in a car and a trailer. Not so law abiding Citizens see an opportunity for fast cash. But neither man nor woman are what they seem...

Slashers are often quite boring, especially the old school style like Halloween and Friday the 13th which in my view have ruined the genre by too many sequels, unimaginative scripting, lack of good acting and directing. A Nightmare on Elmstreet is forgiven due to Robert Englund's priceless comments. Lately though, we have seen a couple of pretty good ones, well, relatively speaking anyway. Belonging to them are Midnight Movie, The Collector, the Collection and Laid to Rest 1 & 2 which all have high production values which make you not just waiting for the victims to get picked off. No One Lives belongs to the latter category.

Another "problem" with slashers is that you almost Always root for the killer. Not because he holds great moral values or is good looking etc etc, but because the victims are impossible to like and because of silly looks and daft acting. Due to that fact most slasher Movies serve only as pre-bedtime Entertainment. No One Lives is different. It has a nice package of a suspenseful first act, perfect pacing and good acting from both star (Evans) and the unknowns.

Though a simple story it is well executed (no pun intended) and Luke Evans has grown on me to become one of my new favorites. I undoubtedly see him as the new action/thriller star. He has the charm, the looks and a badass attitude which works both for heroes and villains.

Downsides? well, it is nonetheless a slasher and as such it is difficult praise all the way. Despite of Luke Evans' performance you still, on the basis of the Movie being a slasher, wait for the killings. Negative is also the obvious plot holes. No One Lives screams for sequel and prequel which is not entirely a good thing I Think.

I give it 6 out of 10 which is quite high for a slasher, but, as mentioned above, it's got relatively high production values and nicely executed.

This is an unexpectedly great, original movie that will not fail to shock you and give you the chills as well. I like how the director kept me captivated throughout the entire movie due to the twists in the film, which again I admired. The characters were all on point especially the part of Driver played by Luke Evans. There were a couple of parts in the film that could've been better, but generally the film is quite enjoyable if you are into serial killers movies then I really recommend this for you. I want to inform you that this is full of cool brutal scenes not to mention that this is violent horror kind of movie you probably will feel squeamish watching this gory film so you better have a strong gut what distinguish this film is that there are not any heroes in it, interesting characters though, that been played by adroit actors which put you in position to enjoy the ride and root for no one. I'm quite surprised that WWE sponsored this movie because frankly, most of their movies are terrible.

Many would dismiss this film because it comes from WWE Studios, and given that stigma, they would be justified in doing so.

The production company should not steer you away. No One Lives is brilliantly filmed and paced. The story is better than it has any right to be, and gorehounds will be very pleased with the sheer brutality presented.

Make sure to see this whenever the opportunity presents itself.

This movie is not what you think. Yes it is a horror (thats for sure), but it has a huge twist right near the start. I was watching this thinking "This is pretty good, story is going well". Then all of a sudden I was thinking "Wait! What the??". I don't want to give too much away, but the story changes tact about 10 or so minutes into the film, and I LIKED that a lot. The blood and gore factor in this is quite high too, which again I LIKED a lot. The movie was better than I was expecting for another WWE made horror, the last horror they made (Barricade) was below average in my opinion, but they've redeemed themselves a bit with this film. The characters were actually played well, especially the part of "Driver" played by Luke Evans. There were a couple of parts in the film that were cliché, but overall the film is quite good. So I give it a good 7.5 out of 10.

Pretty decent flick. Although I wish this movie would have reached into the background of the sociopath. Still worth the watch. Even with a few unanswered questions.

When I am in the mood for a horror movie I usually want something with a non confusing plot, decent acting , and good pacing. Thankfully this had all 3. Yes there are some little small nit picks here and there but as a whole this is a good end of the working week Friday night movie. The story is pretty good but cannot be fully explained without spoiling it which I do not want to do. I will start with the gore level, this movie has gore but it is never over used to the point it is laughable unlike so many recent horror movies. The performances are pretty good I was only disappointed with a few line deliveries but I let them blow over my head. The pace was perfect in my opinion it sets up a good steady start, gets you asking questions and then the middle flows perfectly into the end you are never left sitting tempted to forward it onto the next death scene. All in all I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to be entertained for an hour an a half it is a movie you can switch your brain off and relax, If anyone has any trouble following the basic story then perhaps there at the age they shouldn't be watching it. Give it a try put your feet up and prepare to be entertained and satisfied as No One Lives does not disappoint!!

"No one lives" is a Ryūhei Kitamura Movie and he definitely did not change his routine since "Versus", which is a known Japanese splatter-movie.

Throughout the movie you will see gore,gore and gore - did I mention gore already ? Of course it can not be compared to movies like Braindead or Story of Ricky because you always have the feeling that the director is trying to do something serious. You are not supposed to laugh at a victim, but not to cry either. A major flaw with "No one lives" is a flaw many movies of this genre have - the characters are puppets which were created to be slayed by a superior killer. Ryuhei Kitamura introduces you to them, makes you shake hands and then shoots them in the face infront of you, expecting your thought to be :,, Oh my god is he insane ? How could he do that ? Poor, poor tough biker-guy!". Instead you just sit there, infront of your TV, and think :,,Hmmm... and another one." Another thing that really annoyed me is the invincible killler. I know he's supposed to be like that, but why do I always feel like watching a 22-year-old bad-ass Spetznas super-soldier, when watching a slasher-movie ?

After all the movie was okay and I rate it a 5* Movie. Not bad, but nothing special either - as I said there are 1 or 2 twists and "That was actually a good idea" moments in "No one lives", but all in all it is nothing you haven't seen.

Driver and his partner, Betty, are seemingly an innocent couple who become the victims of a group of vicious & violent killers. However, there is more than meets the eye when the killers find a kidnap victim by the name of Emma locked up in the back of Driver and Betty's car. Realising who Emma is, the gang all plan to hand her in to claim the reward for her safe return, but things don't go so well and they start getting picked off one by one.

The trailers for No One Lives makes it look like a really good, suspenseful movie, but in actual fact it's really a very run-of-the-mill slasher flick. The acting is pretty wooden - as well as slightly over-the-top on occasion - to be honest, which is quite strange for supposedly decent actors. None of the characters are that interesting either and you don't really develop any kind of affinity towards any of them. Even Emma, the kidnap victim, gets pretty annoying at times. In fact, it actually gets to certain points where you actually WANT something bad to happen to them, and when something does you cheer a little inside.

The killings in the movie are very gory too, and while I don't mind gore being used to add to the feel of the movie, I just think that the gore used was way over-the-top. For me it just seemed that the movie makers couldn't think of any way to shock the audience other than using plenty of gore. Gore can add to a film's feel like I say, but in this film's case I feel that it was used just for the sake of it.

Another aspect of the film that was over-the-top as well was the language. I can swear like a trooper myself and don't mind swearing in movies, however it gets a wee bit much when every second word the actors utter is f**k.

Overall, No One Lives is an OK movie to watch, but just don't expect anything original or that fantastic.

I wasn't expecting much based on all the recent horror movies I have seen that are lacking that special something, but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie. Some of the acting could have been better, but overall I thought this was a fun, gory thriller. Definitely worth a watch.

A group of small-time bad guys accidentally kidnap the biggest bad guy... Whoops.

A decent concept, but some of the worst acting and writing I've ever seen. Sure, if you're here for some thrills, there's a few to be had, but you really seriously have to switch your brain off.

This one may fit into the so bad its good category, depending on your attitude, which is probably why it has so many positive reviews. Objectively though, its so bad its bad.

I should highlight one particularly ridiculous scene: the image of one character unzipping themself out of another character who they had been hiding inside... Absolutely ridiculous, unnecessary, considering the character could have hid literally anywhere else. So yes, if that sounds good, then that's the sort of movie you're in for.

One of those modern-day 'grindhouse' style movies, full of unpleasant violence meted out to innocent people and even more unpleasant violence meted out to those who deserve it. This one is a fast-paced, action packed tale of small-time gangsters, kidnappers and serial killers, and the title is an apt one; it's the kind of nihilistic fare where nobody is likely to make it out alive and gruesome death is just around the corner.

It's also an incredibly gory movie, where the bloodshed is taken to a gratuitous level. People are fed into meat chippers and tortured and murdered in increasingly nasty ways, and it's all handled with a certain level of skill and professionalism by Japanese director Ryuhei Kitamura, who brings the same level to insanity to this as he did to VERSUS and AZUMI back in the day.

British star Luke Evans is very good in the main role while the bad guys are all suitably sleazy and the victims all suitably victimised. Those looking for depth or a profound exploration on the nature of death and violence will be disappointed; this is superficial stuff through and through, packed with incident and plot twist after plot twist and little else. It's a perfect piece of popcorn entertainment for those who can handle the copious bloodshed.

Anything over a 7/10 rating would have to be a really amazing flick but No One Lives didn't disappoint me. I actually didn't have high expectations for this film and had totally forgotten that the directed did Midnight Meat Train, one of my faves from the past few years. The beginning was a bit slow but then the twist came and it totally took me by surprise. The performances yes, could have been better with better actors & a more fleshed out script but all in all it's pretty much a bloody violent romp and if you like that kind of thing, you should really enjoy this. Some points in the film you might get discourages with; the bumbling crooks unable to think rationally, the lack of character development and even more lacking back story, but overall it was a fun kick of adrenaline and a decent premise. If you're a fan of "Vacancy", "Rest Stop", The Collector and films of that genre, you should check out "No One Lives".

Revisited this film recently. It is about a couple travelling cross country who gets kidnapped by a member from a gang of robbers. While the girl commits suicide by cutting her throat on a knife the robber had against her neck, the man goes on a killing spree. The film is very violent n intriguing n has a lil dose of America Olivo's nudity. I still prefer Ryuhei Kitamura's Versus n Midnight Meat Train.

This film n the film The Collection has lil similarities n both released in 2012. In this movie the girl who gets kidnapped is Emma (character's name) while in The Collection the kidnapped girl is also Emma (real name). Lee Tergesen starred in both the films. In this film he is the leader of the gang n in The Collection he is the bodyguard of the girl). In both the films the girls r kidnapped during a party.

I have a strong dislike of films that pretend to be pseudo intellectual, when instead they're as dumb as a post. This movie is about a maniac who slaughters an entire dorm full of students, apart from one girl he spares to keep as a prisoner. He corrupts her fragile little mind to his way of thinking, until she develops something akin to Stockholm Syndrome (where victims develop a rapport with their kidnappers). Months later, he himself is carjacked... and the criminals who look in his boot discover the young lady all tied up. She's covered in scars, and delivers an ominous warning: You shouldn't have done that. Not to this dude...

Aside from some very sickly arresting gross deaths (don't watch if you've just eaten) it's just 75 minutes of people shouting at each other with a bit of nudity thrown in for good measure. The worst parts are when this killer decides to share his reasons for his psychosis... these I suppose are meant to be eye-opening character moments, when in fact they are mind-numbing gibberish perpetuated by a man who's idea of a good time is to rub someone's head against a running engine.

What did you expect, from a movie part financed by WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment)? I dare say there are some of their crew in the cast. All I can say is steroids do not improve your acting ability. 4/10

It is EXTREMELY rare that I rate a movie 1/10 but I could not think of a single reason that would justify scoring this "film" any higher. It really has no redeeming qualities at all. Everything is bad here; been there done that plot, atrocious acting, amateur writing, unlikeable characters, swiss cheese plot, bad lighting and on and on and on. The characters say and do the most ridiculous things at the most ridiculous times and the lines they gave these actors, my God, CRINGE worthy. I felt embarrassed for everyone involved with this film. I like shoestring budget horror, but this was done on a 3 million dollar budget....there really is no excuse for how terrible this movie is. The main antagonist here is so horrible of an actor, so corny and cheeseball ... man I just can't go on here, don't watch it, that is all I could say I can't think of any type of an audience that could enjoy this steaming pile.

This is a movie that somehow slipped by me, but man was i glad i found it! i was searching movies that Luke Evans were in i think he's a pretty good actor but nails the roles as an intelligent villain, which he definitely was in this movie and yeah You can say he was a lil crazy too (sarcasm).

For a film in this genre where its become hard to find something close to original or decent i was very impressed with this one and was glued in from the jump i loved the cast and the characters i think everybody did a pretty good job. Yeah it had some some similarities with other movies but definitely had its own spin, not too many movies you find yourself rooting for the bad guy but i found myself doing that in this, i would like to see him play a version of Hannibal Lector.

Overall great movie for its genre good ending and twist at the end, deserves a better rating i try to rate movies for their genre but definitely watch this if you're into this genre you shouldn't be disappointed.

For starters, the title is all wrong. Not everyone dies. Although you might wish they had. I gave this pile of garbage three stars for two reasons: 1) It's got more (unintentional) laugh out loud one liners than your average comedy, and 2) the modern day gang of pirates the story revolves around manage to evoke the wrath of the wrong person, which is always fun. The script and acting are mostly awful. The obvious flubs are many (i.e. Man drives car but has to use a crowbar to open the trunk? Keys? Trunk release? Unnecessary moment of testosterone?) The over the top, cartoon-like deaths are many. I'm certainly not going to recommend watching this movie, but if you've got ninety minutes to kill, and don't want to spend the time staring mindlessly at a blank TV screen, I say go for it.

Luke Evans plays the maniac killer in a similar vein/comparison to Sylvester Stallone in the Rambo franchise series, and Evans is just as good, if not better in his role. I won't provide any spoilers but suffice to say this slasher film focuses on a bunch of bad dudes versus just one maniac killer who will remain unnamed.

Now these bad dudes, are really bad dudes, but like any good bar fight, you can't measure the dog in the fight by his weight and height, nor by how many dogs one group has because this lone wolf is up for the challenge.

If you are squeamish about blood and gore than I suggest you pass on No One Lives. But if you enjoy a decent story line in which evil versus evil is the plot than someone is going to win and of course sone is going to lose. The film title is all the hint you require to figure out how this film may end ... or maybe not.

I give this horror/slasher film a credible 7 out of 7 rating just on Like Evans fine performance alone. The many film casualties were also good.
