“It has one of the best scenes with one of the top 10 scenes in a horror film ever,” boasts Bill Lewis, SVP Theatrical Marketing and Distribution at Anchor Bay Films. “We [released] the clip of the scene Wednesday. It’s such a great shot.”

Olivo plays Tamara in the film, which follows a gang of ruthless highway killers who kidnap a wealthy couple traveling cross-country only to shockingly discover that things are not what they seem.

Along with Olivo, the film also stars Luke Evans and Adelaide Clemens.

Anchor Bay Films picked up No One Lives at the Toronto International Film Festival last year.

No One Lives will open in about 53 locations in 34 cities and will expand from there, although numbers are still to-be-determined based on performance.
