Could be bad battery connections, or a bad battery cable. Try and jump it to start. Then have the battery and the charging system checked.

If you do not hear the fuel pump hum when you first turn the key on it may be bad.

GuruB64, then your not getting fuel for what-ever reason. Start with checking the fuel pressure, or like FOR says, listen to hear the fuel pump prime up.
