Helldriver

“A joy ride.”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 70, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
Japan's zombie crisis sends a young woman after her mother, now an exceptionally unsuitable monarch. The journey keeps inventing more elaborate arrangements of undead body parts. This is a long, extremely graphic effects showcase; the conventional fighting is less memorable than the grotesque engineering.
