The City of Lost Children (1995)

The City of Lost Children (original French title: La cité des enfants perdus) is a 1995 French science fiction film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Alien: Resurrection) and follows the adventures of a circus strongman whose adopted little brother is kidnapped by an evil scientist, who intends to steal children's dreams as he cannot dream himself.

While the film was met with mixed reception, the props and practical effects would inspire the visuals of Fallout: A Post-Nuclear Role-Playing Game.

The following weapons were used in the film The City of Lost Children:
