Helldriver (Japanese: ヘルドライバー, Hepburn: Herudoraibā) is a 2010 Japanese splatter film directed by Yoshihiro Nishimura. It stars Yumiko Hara and Eihi Shiina, and was written by Nishimura and Daichi Nagisa.

A girl named Kika and her father hide from her mother, Rikka, who has gone insane and resorted to cannibalism, as well as her uncle, Yasushi, who aids his sister in her crimes. They find the two hiding in an abandoned town and incinerate Kika's father to death. Before the homicidal siblings can kill Kika, a meteorite falls from the sky inexplicably and hits Rikka, punching through her and destroying her heart. In her last breath, Rikka rips out Kika's heart and puts it in her chest. Immediately after, an unknown substance encases the two, putting them in cocoon-like states. Black ash emits from Rikka and eventually covers the northern half of Japan. People who inhale the ash are turned into bloodthirsty zombies. In an effort to contain the infection, a large wall is erected, dividing Japan in two, keeping the zombies north while most of the uninfected population remains south.
