Emil Saber (
Peter O'Toole) travels to Jerusalem to seek the seventh coin of King Herod to complete his collection. As Saber searches for the coins, he becomes more and more unhinged, eventually believing that he is the murderous incarnation of King Herod. When he discovers that the coin is in the possession of two youngsters, American tourist Ronnie (Alexandra Powers) and pickpocket Salim (
Navin Chowdhry), the two must struggle to avoid becoming Saber's next victims. ~ Iotis Erlewine, All Movie Guide
