This certainly sounds like a dead battery issue. How long has the car been sitting? If it has been a while after the car is fully charged, clean the battery terminals before reinstalling the battery. Make sure you have a good charge on the battery before trying and you may even want to try to attach a jumper battery just to give it some help.

If the battery voltage seems fine (typically 12.4 - 13.8 volts) Check the fusible link on the positive fuse block lead (it's the smaller positive lead, not the fat one that goes to the starter)
