You can watch Testament (1983) for free on Hoopla.

It is just another day in the small town of Hamlin until something disastrous happens. Suddenly, news breaks that a series of nuclear warheads has been dropped along the Eastern Seaboard and, more locally, in California. As people begin coping with the devastating aftermath of the attacks — many suffer radiation poisoning — the Wetherly family tries to survive.

Instead of explosive battles, this quiet drama focuses on the suffocating stillness of a suburban home waiting for the inevitable fallout. It captures the chilling, domestic mundanity of survival as a family attempts to maintain routine amidst a creeping, invisible death.
