Plot
Emil Saber, a retired British soldier, collects ancient coins and Biblical artifacts. To complete his collection of King Herod's coins, Emil travels to Jerusalem to seek out the seventh and final one. In his search for the coin, Emil begins to lose his mind and eventually believes that he is the reincarnated Herod himself. This does not go well for two teenagers, American tourist Ronnie and Arab pickpocket Salim, who possess the coin. As Emil embarks on a murderous rampage, the teenagers must avoid him while also protecting the coin.
