This gleefully demented little visceral psycho-horror-thriller punches way above its weight. There are many pleasures here, including the touching on a range of genre styles and overt references that are used cleverly to wrong-foot the viewer at almost every turn, a wicked streak of laugh-out-loud dark humour and a mesmerisingly steely lead turn from Luke Evans. No One Lives is taut, knowingly constructed and sleekly efficient, making it one of the most surprising and effective horror films of 2013.
