New York City is the most populous city in the United States and a global power city. It was destroyed during the War of 1996. Only a few hundred people, mainly those in deep sections of the city's subway system, survived. The destruction reached as far as Staten Island and New Jersey.[1]

David and Julius Levinson lived in New York.

Behind the Scenes

  • The smoky effects of the alien spacecraft as it moves into position above New York City (starts about 22 minutes 44 seconds into the movie) was created by a double exposure on the film. The effect comes from recording water in a tank turning murky after a clod of dirt was dropped into it.
