when you say it wont bleed, do you meen no fluid comes out? or do you meen it bleeds but brakes dont work?

if no fluid comes out, the bleed nipples are probably rusted and blocked.
if fluid comes out when you bleed, but no brakes. calipers are seized..

You need to check many things.....master cyl isn't bypassing, check for siezed caliper slides, and pistons, hoses aren't blocked or half blocked, or kinked.....or blocked bleeder nipples as suggested before.
