Plot

After the death of his parents, Catholic priest Doug goes to China to restore faith in God, because that is where, in his opinion, the Lord would not have followed him. But instead of gaining faith, he accidentally acquires the ability to transform into a bloodthirsty dinosaur.

Representatives of the Chinese Christian Church decide to implement a plan to take over the world: they train ninjas, planning to sell cocaine on the streets, and then at meetings of narcotics anonymous to recruit new followers and turn them into ninjas.

Doug kills Carol's pimp, who blew up his parents ' car, causing their deaths. Doug's mentor believes that his transformation into a dinosaur is the work of demons, and decides to turn to a familiar exorcist. During the session, Doug turns into a dinosaur and injures the mentor.

The head of a Chinese Christian Church kidnaps Dag's mentor and tries to recruit him, but he refuses, after which he is killed.

In the morning, when Doug and Carol are basking in bed, the ninjas burst into the room. Carol and Doug defeat them, but Odin manages to tell them about Doug's dead mentor before he dies. After that, Doug goes to take revenge in the ninja camp. There, he meets the right hand of the head of the Chinese Church – his own brother, who all his life envied Doug's relationship with his parents. While Doug fights with his brother, Carol is fatally wounded. This provokes Doug to turn into a dinosaur and kill all the remaining ninjas in the camp, including the head of the Church.

Werewolf

The main character gains the ability to transform into a dinosaur after injuring his hand with an ancient relic similar to the tooth of a huge reptile. The transformation occurs in moments of intense hunger or anger. Sometimes we are shown the full moon, but it is not clear whether there is a connection between the priest's transformations and the phases of The earth's satellite. In addition, reincarnation can occur in the daytime. The transformation may not be complete, for example, only the main character's hands or eyes can change.

There is an antidote that can restore the person who turned into a dinosaur to its original appearance. According to the head of the Chinese Church, the secret of this antidote has been preserved since the time when there were many lizard-men. For some reason, the antidote does not work completely on the main character, his hands remain the paws of a dinosaur.
