Horror movies come in all shapes, sizes, and forms.
The last movie I reviewed was a psychological horror movie but this time I've decided to review a standard shock and shlock horror movie.
Is this movie worth the time to watch for the average horror fan?
Let's check out No One Lives.

No One Lives stars a couple of actors that you'll probably recognize but don't exactly stand out either.
Luke Evans and Adelaide Clemens.
They've been in a few big name movies but I couldn't personally remember what those movies were.
Sometimes that can be a good thing in a horror movie.
No One Lives is a revenge style standard shock and shlock horror meaning that it's full of gunplay, fighting, knives, and gore.
Make no mistake...... this is one blood filled movie.
If you don't like watching gore then you have no business at all watching No One Lives.
Not For Kids.

Mild spoilers ahead.
A group of punks and thieves that are up to no good encounter a man and a woman in a bar sitting together.
They appear to be rich........ and easy pickings for the thieves. They run them off the road.
What they don't realize is that the man is actually a complete psychopath.
The movie really takes a turn when they realize that the car they've stolen from the man has a young woman tied in the back.
This woman has been missing for some time and it's been all over the news. The man decides he is going to take the woman back at all costs.
The problem with this movie is that it is not thrilling despite the fact that is full of action.
The title of this movie is No One Lives therefore it is pretty obvious that no one is going to live.
Whatever suspense they might have created is already gone just by reading the title because you already know that the man is going to kill everybody no matter what.

If you somehow didn't get that by reading the title then you will figure it out about 10 minutes into the movie.
This is a very fast paced movie that gets going and doesn't stop until it's over.
There are no likeable characters in this movie whatsoever.
There is no one to root for and no one that you hope lives.
There is no suspense of thinking someone might get away..... and no thrilling action parts at all because you know what's going to happen already.
Having said that..... it's not a terrible movie.
If you're home by yourself on a Friday night and you're looking for a horror movie with tons of gore then this might be the thing for you.
Just don't expect any suspense because there isn't any.
No One Lives is a completely average standard schlock horror movie that offers absolutely nothing new or unusual for the genre.
