New York. Una notte come tante altre, almeno così sembra.., ma ad un certo punto un black out, fa cadere la città nel buio. Quello che succede subito dopo è terrificante, una misteriosa creatura sta radendo al suolo la città, la testa della statua della libertà vola come una palla infuocata fra i grattacieli.., la Grande Mela è nel caos e l'esercito non sa cosa fare.
