Red Dawn (1984) portrays a chilling scenario where the United States faces an invasion from both the north and south by communist forces hailing from Cuba and Russia, marking the onset of World War III. The narrative centers around a group of partisans from a small midwestern town who band together to resist and repel the invading forces. This film has significantly influenced the ideologies of citizen militias and patriot groups, particularly in their beliefs about the potential for a United Nations takeover of the U.S. The movie's themes, including a foreign invasion, widespread confiscation of firearms, the detention of gun owners, the transportation of military equipment via railroads, enemy helicopters, re-education facilities (concentration camps), and a citizen force fighting back, resonate with the militia theory of the New World Order.
