as opposed to the front tail lights sorry I couldn't resist, I'd start checking grounds, they can get corroded and loost connectivity, I believe it's in the passangerside rear conder area, just pull the panles off and follow the wires and look for wires bolted to the car with a ring terminal

Do your dashboard lights still work? Because most cars have the Dash lights and tail lights wired together so that when you blow your taillight fuse you know about it. So in other words check the dashboard/tail light fuse.

Sounds like a fuse issue to me as well
