No One Lives

Shock Till You Drop was offered the opportunity to speak to Ryuhei Kitamura, director of today's release No One Lives, via e-mail.  Kitamura is currently in Japan, so the chat was conducted via e-mail and is brief, but it's refreshingly honest as Kitamura opens up about the making of his second American feature film.

Luke Evans stars in No One Lives which concerns a ruthless criminal gang takes a young couple hostage and goes to ground in an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere.  When the captive girl is killed, the tables are unexpectedly turned. The gang finds itself outsmarted by an urbane and seasoned killer determined to ensure that no one lives.

Tomorrow welcomes the release of No One Lives, the latest flick from Ryuhei Kitamura (Midnight Meat Train) and WWE Films (See No Evil).  In the film, a ruthless criminal gang takes a young couple hostage and goes to ground in an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere.  

When the captive girl is killed, the tables are unexpectedly turned. The gang finds itself outsmarted by an urbane and seasoned killer determined to ensure that no one lives.  

We spoke to the film's "killer," Luke Evans yesterday - head inside for our brief chat!

We are going to be seeing a lot of Luke Evans soon. The actor, who starred with John Cusack in The Raven last year, was recently cast in upcoming remakes of Dracula and The Crow. In the short term, though, Evans can be seen in No One Lives, the latest offering from Midnight Meat Train director Ryuhei Kitamura. It opens on VOD and in 50 theaters nationwide on Friday. 

In the credits he is Driver, but in the movie Evans doesn’t have a name. Along with his girlfriend Betty (Laura Ramsey), he is “relocating,” driving through back roads with a small trailer in tow. They are having serious issues with hints of an affair. Betty makes a few references to another woman and he swears that there is no one else for him. Tension is in the air as the couple stops at a cheap motel to rest for the night.
