FALLOUT AMAZON PRIME VIDEO
While the beloved post-apocalyptic games give the player the freedom to pretty much write their own story, this eight-part adaptation follows the fortunes of a central character who has never experienced life outside the nuclear bunker she calls home, but is forced to brave an unforgiving world of cannibals, giant cockroaches, deadly radiation and organ-harvesting robots (voiced brilliantly by Matt Berry). What’s always been so appealing about the Fallout games is the juxtaposition of Atomic Age outlooks and aesthetics with barren, end-of-the-world landscapes and the survivors that inhabit them. An effective dose of humour and vibrant 4K HDR images make this is a must-watch show.
